20 Pack 1/2 in Overlay 105 Degree Soft Close Face Frame Hinges - Quiet

Our review of these 20 pack 1/2 in overlay face frame hinges finds them best suited for DIYers and pros who need a reliable, cost-effective hinge for routine cabinet updates. The single biggest reason to buy is the built-in soft close damper that tames slamming doors and gives a quiet, controlled close across typical kitchen and utility cabinets. Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with concealed hinges, and the pack includes the dowels and matching screws needed to get a full cabinet job done without extra trips to the hardware store.

Key Features

• 1/2 in overlay, 105 degree opening: Provides a common fit for face frame cabinets and gives ample access to cabinet interiors when opened.
• 35mm hinge cup: The standard cup diameter and 11.8mm cup depth make the hinge compatible with most cabinet doors routed for concealed hinges.
• Built-in damper soft close: The integrated mechanism slowly pulls the door closed for smooth silent operation and prevents slams.
• 3 way adjustability: Adjustment on three axes simplifies alignment so doors sit flush and gaps are consistent without removing the hinge.
• Cold rolled steel with nickel plating: Offers strength and corrosion resistance suitable for normal kitchen and utility room environments.
• 20 pack with hardware: Includes dowels and matching screws so a full cabinet job can be completed with one purchase.

Who It's For

These hinges are ideal for homeowners tackling a cabinet refresh, carpenters fitting new face frame kitchen cabinets, and small contractors who want an economical, replaceable hinge that performs reliably. The included dowels and screws make the set especially useful when doing multiple doors at once.

They are less suited to specialty cabinets that require nonstandard cup sizes, heavy custom doors beyond typical kitchen weight, or applications needing an opening angle wider than 105 degrees. If corrosion resistance for harsh outdoor use is critical, a stainless steel hinge may be a better choice.
