Angled Bay Geometry And Flush Inset Fit

This Hettich Sensys concealed hinge is built for inset doors on cabinet boxes that meet at a 90-degree angle, covering both face-frame and frameless constructions, with Silent System soft-close integrated into the hinge body.

Key Features

• +90 degree cabinet angle positions inset doors correctly on angled or bay-style cabinet configurations where two boxes meet at a right angle.
• Inset overlay geometry seats the door flush inside the opening, framed by an even reveal on all sides.
• Integrated Silent System soft-close damps the door over the final arc of closing so it settles without slamming.
• 95 degree opening angle delivers the correct swing clearance for an inset door at this cabinet geometry.
• Screw-on mounting fastens directly to the cabinet side or face-frame stile with wood screws, no plate-system holes required.
• Works on both face-frame and frameless cabinets, expanding where this hinge can go in a single project or shop run.

The Right Hinge for an Angled Inset Application

Most concealed hinges are engineered for a standard 90-degree cabinet box where the door hangs square off one flat panel. This hinge solves the specific case where the cabinet geometry itself turns a corner at 90 degrees and the door must still sit flush inside its opening. The +90-degree cabinet angle built into the arm positions the door correctly relative to an adjacent face so it opens cleanly and closes flush without binding against the case or the neighboring panel.

The 35mm cup bores into the back of the door, and the hinge screws directly to the cabinet. A matching Hettich base plate, ordered separately, completes the connection between the arm and the cabinet side. Because mounting is screw-on, the install works on production frameless cases and on face-frame builds alike, with no dependency on pre-drilled 5mm system holes.

Steel Build With Damped Closing

The hinge is plated steel in a Nickel finish. The Silent System soft-close is built into the hinge at this stage, not added on after the fact, so the damping is consistent across every door in the run. For an inset door, where the tolerances are tighter and a slammed close can jar a precisely fitted door against its frame, that integrated damping is a practical protection for the fit over time. Depth and side adjustment let the installer dial in an even reveal on all four edges after the cabinet is set.

Who Reaches for This Hinge

This is a specialty pick for designers and cabinet shops working on angled or bay-style cabinetry where the inset look is specified. It suits the installer who needs a single hinge that handles the geometry and the flush fit together, without adapters or workarounds. Doors in the 15 to 28mm thickness range fit the cup correctly. For a standard 90-degree box with an inset door, the non-angled Sensys inset hinge is the simpler choice. This version is the one to reach for when the cabinet angle itself is the variable.
