Salice Face Frame Inset Hinge

10/30/19       
Steven

Does anyone using Salice hinges know if this hinge/mounting plate combo is correct for face frame inset doors? The doors I buy are a little thicker, I think 13/16" or 7/8".

Hi Steven,

This is not the correct combination. We actually offer 2 methods for inset face frame applications.

The first method would be to attach the mounting plate to the back of the face frame. The mounting plate you show, BAL3R59 is correct for this approach. The correct hinge however would be the "half overlay" version. Salice item C2R6G99. You are showing an "inset" hinge that would be used in our second approach.

The second method would be to use an inset hinge C2R6P99 (like you show) but with a mounting plate of the correct thickness that would be attached directly to the cabinet side. The choice of mounting plate would depend on the measurement behind the face frame.

I have included 2 illustrations that detail both approaches. The drawings show ¾” thick doors but your 7/8” thick doors will also work with these solutions. You would adjust to a slightly larger gap between the door edge and the face frame when 7/8" doors are used.

You can use either self-close or soft close hinges with either method using the correct part number.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Best of luck,

Dennis

Dennis,

This is exactly the information I had been trying to find. Thank you for replying.

Hello Dennis,

I also have inset doors and face frame, 3/4 inches thick door. I need to replace hinges for 22 doors and I am on a budget.

Can you please double confirm that approach 1 (attach mounting plate to the back of the face frame) Salice part number is plate BAL3R59, hinge C2R6G99? Though hinge name is half overlay, it works for inset? I don't want to buy 44 sets and found out later that they are wrong. :-)

If I want soft close, will it be much more expensive? Can you please point me to the part number?

Thank you, Dennis.

Vera,

You seem to be on the right track with the part numbers you stated. In case there are circumstances that I am not aware, you may want to order 2 hinges and plates for a test run. Then order the rest if it works ok.

The soft close hinge for the same door would be C7R6GE9. You would use the same mounting plate. It will cost more but you will need to check with your supplier for the price.

Be cautious with the soft close hinge. This requires a 13.5mm (9/16") cup depth for the soft close feature to function.

Best of luck

Dennis

In my case I have 3/8" rabbeted partial inset doors combined with face frame cabinets. Is there a hinge I can use in combination with the BAL3R59 mounting plate to make those work? Are the half overlay hinges the right answer there as well, or something else?

  • Posts with the intent of soliciting answers to surveys are not appropriate. Contact WOODWEB for more information on initiating a survey.
  • Excessive forum participation by an individual upsets the balance of a healthy forum atmosphere. Individuals who excessively post responses containing marginal content will be considered repeat forum abusers.

    WOODWEB's forums are a highly regarded resource for professional woodworkers. Messages and responses that are crafted in a professional and civil manner strengthen this resource. Messages that do not reflect a professional tone reduce the value of our forums.

    Messages are inappropriate when their content: is deemed libelous in nature or is based on rumor, fails to meet basic standards of decorum, contains blatant advertising or inappropriate emphasis on self promotion (return to top).

    Libel:   Posts which defame an individual or organization, or employ a tone which can be viewed as malicious in nature. Words, pictures, or cartoons which expose a person or organization to public hatred, shame, disgrace, or ridicule, or induce an ill opinion of a person or organization, are libelous.

    Improper Decorum:   Posts which are profane, inciting, disrespectful or uncivil in tone, or maliciously worded. This also includes the venting of unsubstantiated opinions. Such messages do little to illuminate a given topic, and often have the opposite effect. Constructive criticism is acceptable (return to top).

    Advertising:   The purpose of WOODWEB Forums is to provide answers, not an advertising venue. Companies participating in a Forum discussion should provide specific answers to posted questions. WOODWEB suggests that businesses include an appropriately crafted signature in order to identify their company. A well meaning post that seems to be on-topic but contains a product reference may do your business more harm than good in the Forum environment. Forum users may perceive your references to specific products as unsolicited advertising (spam) and consciously avoid your web site or services. A well-crafted signature is an appropriate way to advertise your services that will not offend potential customers. Signatures should be limited to 4-6 lines, and may contain information that identifies the type of business you're in, your URL and email address (return to top).

    Repeated Forum Abuse: Forum participants who repeatedly fail to follow WOODWEB's Forum Guidelines may encounter difficulty when attempting to post messages.

    There are often situations when the original message asks for opinions: "What is the best widget for my type of shop?". To a certain extent, the person posting the message is responsible for including specific questions within the message. An open ended question (like the one above) invites responses that may read as sales pitches. WOODWEB suggests that companies responding to such a question provide detailed and substantive replies rather than responses that read as a one-sided product promotion. It has been WOODWEB's experience that substantive responses are held in higher regard by our readers (return to top).

    The staff of WOODWEB assume no responsibility for the accuracy, content, or outcome of any posting transmitted at WOODWEB's Message Boards.
