Hettich Sensys Concealed Hinge in Nickel for Half Overlay Doors

This Hettich Sensys hinge hangs half overlay doors with integrated Silent System soft-close on both face-frame and frameless cabinets, finished in nickel for a clean, coordinated look across the cabinet interior.

Key Features

• Integrated Silent System soft-close damps the door through the final closing arc so it settles quietly every time.
• Half overlay, half crank arm positions two doors correctly on a shared center partition or sets a single door to a partial overlay.
• 110 degree opening gives full everyday access to cabinet contents.
• Dowel mount cup presses into pre-bored dowel holes for fast, screw-free door attachment in production environments.
• Works on face-frame and frameless cabinets when paired with the matching Hettich base plate, sold separately.
• Nickel finish on plated steel keeps the hardware looking consistent inside cabinets where the hinge stays visible.

Half Overlay Doors on Two Cabinet Types

Half overlay is the geometry for doors that cover only part of the cabinet side, most often where two doors share one center partition and each door claims roughly half. The half crank arm on this hinge delivers that position precisely. Because it is built for both face-frame and frameless boxes, one SKU covers a mixed job, whether the doors hang on a traditional face-frame cabinet or a European frameless box. A Hettich base plate, ordered separately, mounts to the cabinet and the hinge arm connects to it. Hettich plates are specific to the Sensys series, so pair them accordingly.

Nickel Finish and a Quiet, Protected Close

The hinge is plated steel in a nickel finish. Inside a cabinet, the hinge is the hardware that gets used most, so the Silent System damper earns its keep on every cycle: it slows the door before contact instead of letting it slam into the stop, which protects both the door edge and the cabinet box over years of daily use. The nickel finish holds up in that environment and coordinates with other nickel hardware on the job without requiring a finish swap.

Where This Hinge Belongs

This is the right specification for cabinet shops, contractors, and remodelers running half overlay doors on face-frame or frameless work who want soft-close performance in the Hettich Sensys line. The dowel mount is built for CNC and production workflows where the door bores are already sized for pre-mounted dowels, making cup-screw installation a step that never needs to happen. It suits standard doors in the 10 to 19mm thickness range. For doors thicker than 19mm, a thick-door hinge is the correct pick. For a full overlay layout or an inset door, choose the matching Sensys hinge in those overlay configurations.
