Soft close cabinet hinges are a type of hinge that features a hydraulic mechanism built into it. When you close the cabinet door, the hydraulics take charge and ease the door closed in complete silence in somewhat of a gliding motion. This prevents the door from slamming shut, which can be helpful for preventing noise and damage.
Soft close hinges are available in a variety of sizes and finishes, so you can find the perfect ones for your cabinets. They are also easy to install, so you can do it yourself.
Here are some of the benefits of using soft close cabinet hinges:
If you are looking for a way to improve the functionality and appearance of your cabinets, soft close cabinet hinges are a great option.
There are three main types of cupboard hinges: inset overlay, full overlay, and half overlay. It's important to choose the right one so your cabinets open and close correctly.
Inset overlay hinges are the most common type of cupboard hinge. They're called "inset" because the barrel of the hinge is set back into the cabinet door. This gives the door a clean, modern look. Inset overlay hinges are also very strong and can support heavy doors. However, they can be more difficult to install than other types of hinges.
Full overlay hinges are similar to inset overlay hinges, but the barrel of the hinge is flush with the edge of the cabinet door. This means that the entire door overlay the cabinet frame when it's closed. Full overlay hinges give a more traditional look than inset overlay hinges, but they can be more difficult to install.
Half overlay hinges are a compromise between inset overlay hinges and full overlay hinges. The barrel of the hinge is halfway between the edge of the cabinet door and the cabinet frame. This means that half of the door overlay the cabinet frame when it's closed. Half overlay hinges are a good option if you want a traditional look without the difficulty of installing full overlay hinges.
If you are still not sure which hinge to use when replacing your existing hinges simply follow the guide in the image section. Simply match the way your door is set with cabinet frame and order this type shown.
