    Vanity Progress + Solice hinge question...

    Anyone use the Silentia soft close hinges? I got a couple of pair for a vanity built in that I'm doing (back bathroom sink cabinet really), and I have a question. My Blum soft close hinges close themselves, the Silentia seem to just ensure that you cannot slam the door, they don't seem to close by themselves, I was wondering if this is the case or I have some bum hinges?

    Here's a pick, doors are installed and tweaked out, just need to lacquer the frames, plumb up the sink and make a back splash, then thankfully this bit is done.

    Silentia not solice

    dunno why or how I got the name wrong, I've tried to edit the post, but the subject seems uneditable, also, how do you delete posts now?

    Anyway, you all get the gist, I'm sure.

      Can't help on the hinges, Keith, but that 4 way bookmatch on the doors is fantastic!

        If that's in your 'back' bathroom, I'd like see what's in your main bathrooms. This one looks like a work of art!

          The claim to fame for those hinges are "soft close", not "self close".
