Topfscharniere: Alles, was du über Materialien, Distanzen und Öffnungswinkel wissen musst

Pot hinges, also known as pot hinges, are indispensable when it comes to fitting cupboard doors. They are small, inconspicuous and yet so important. They ensure a smooth opening and closing process of your cupboard doors and contribute decisively to the longevity and functionality of your furniture.

We have a variety of different cup hinges and cup hinges. You'll make the best choice if you know the most important aspects - that's exactly what we're here to help you with.

The perfect fit: how material, distance and size influence the choice of pot hinge

To ensure that the hinge fits perfectly later on and can perform its function to the best of its ability, you need to give careful thought to material, distance, and size.

The material of pot hinges

Pot hinges are usually made of rugged steel or long-lasting zinc. Steel is particularly resilient and is ideal for heavier doors. Zinc hinges, on the other hand, are corrosion resistant, making them ideal for areas with high humidity, such as the kitchen. We also have models made of stainless steel in our range.

Distance matters

The distance between the cup hinge and the cabinet edge plays an essential role in choosing the right hinges. This value indicates how far the hinge ends up protruding beyond the edge of the cupboard. The choice of distance depends on the type and style of your wardrobe doors. We list the most common distances:

0 mm
3 mm
6 mm
9 mm
1 1 mm
18 mm

And of course on the size of the pot

Pot hinges with a diameter of 26 mm: These are ideal for smaller, lightweight cupboard doors.
Pot hinges with 35 mm diameter:This is the most common size and fits most standard cupboards.
Pot hinges with 40 mm diameter:For heavier doors, for example made of solid wood, these hinges are best suited.

Available special functions for cup hinges

In addition, there are certain special features and aspects that you need to consider when making your choice:

Tapes for screwing, press-fitting or toolless attachment
Cup hinges for corner, centre or inner stop
With or without automatic closing
With and without soft closing
For especially thin doors

The correct opening angle for cup hinges

A well-chosen cupboard door can have a significant impact on the comfort and functionality of your room. This is where the opening angle of the cup hinge plays a crucial role.

The standard opening angle for cup hinges is 95 degrees. But this is often not enough in practice. For kitchen cabinets, hinges with an opening angle of 110 degrees are therefore often used. Hinges with an opening angle of 120 degrees or more are called wide-angle hinges, which are also suitable for particularly thick doors.

The opening angle of a cup hinge defines the angle between the closed furniture door and the door that is open as far as it will go. Depending on the installation situation, smaller opening angles (for adjacent walls) or larger opening angles (for better accessibility in corner cabinets) can be useful. Usual opening angles for cup hinges are

95°
110°
120-125°
165-175°
270°

Sometimes the possible opening angle must be limited to prevent the door from colliding with other components. In such cases, special opening limiters are available to make the pot hinge compatible.

How to calculate the hinge distance

Calculating hinge spacing is a critical step when installing or replacing cabinet doors. The distance is basically made up of two main components: the mounting plate distance and the distance from the hinge cup to the outer edge of the door, often referred to as the cup distance.

By using a mounting plate with a certain distance, the distance of the door to the cabinet can be changed. For example, using a mounting plate with a 3 mm distance can increase the distance of the door by 3 mm.

The cup distance, on the other hand, is often referred to as the cup distance.

The cup distance, on the other hand, refers to the distance from the drilled hole edge of the hinge cup to the outer edge of the furniture door. This value is set to 4 mm by default, but can be adjusted to a value between 3 mm and 6 mm depending on the hinge properties. Changing this value may cause the door to appear closer to or further from the cabinet side.

It is important that you calculate and adjust these distances accurately to ensure correct door installation and optimal function. An accurate tape measure and a good screwdriver are helpful tools. Measure both the length and width of the hinges and the corner radius if the hinges are not square. You can find out how to properly install a cup hinge here.

Conclusion

Pot hinges play a central role in the functionality of furniture. When choosing the right cup hinge, it is important to consider a number of important aspects such as materials, distances, opening angles and hinge spacing, depending on the intended use. This way you can be sure to choose the right cup hinge for your purposes.
