Thin Door Cabinet Hinge 9.5mm Cup Depth 35mm Non Soft Close 2 Way Slide On Model 1113

Q: What is the difference between Model 1113 and a standard cabinet hinge?

A: The key difference is the cup depth. A standard cabinet hinge has a cup depth of 11.5mm or 12mm, while the Model 1113 features a 9.5mm shallow cup. This 2mm difference is critical when working with thin doors (12-16mm panels). The shallower cup prevents the hinge from drilling through the door surface or creating visible bumps on the exterior. Functionally, both are non-soft close 2-way hinges with slide-on installation, but Model 1113 is specifically engineered for thin panel applications where standard hinges would fail.

Q: What door thickness is Model 1113 suitable for?

A: The Model 1113 thin door hinge is specifically designed for door thicknesses of 12mm to 16mm. This covers most thin panel applications including flat-pack furniture, budget cabinets, RV interiors, and lightweight displays. It can also be used on 18mm doors with shorter screws, but its primary advantage is for thinner panels where standard 11.5mm cup hinges would risk drill-through. For doors thicker than 18mm, we recommend our standard hinges like Model 1101 (11.5mm cup).

Q: Will this hinge prevent drilling through my thin cabinet doors?

A: Yes, that’s exactly what Model 1113 is designed for. When you use a standard 11.5mm hinge on a 15mm door, the hinge cup leaves only 3.5mm of material thickness at the bottom of the hole—this often leads to drill-through (the cup breaking through the exterior surface) or visible bumps. With the 9.5mm shallow cup of Model 1113, on a 15mm door you have 5.5mm of material remaining—enough to maintain structural integrity and a perfectly smooth exterior surface. For 12mm doors, the difference is even more critical: standard hinges almost always drill through, while Model 1113 provides a safe installation.

Q: Is the Model 1113 compatible with standard 35mm drilling equipment?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Model 1113 uses the industry standard 35mm cup diameter, so it works with any standard 35mm Forstner bit or hinge drilling machine. The only difference is the drilling depth—you should set your drilling depth to approximately 10mm (instead of the standard 12mm used for regular hinges). This ensures the 9.5mm cup fits perfectly without going too deep. All other aspects—hole spacing, mounting plate compatibility, and installation process—are identical to standard hinges, making it an easy drop-in replacement for thin door applications.

Q: What mounting plates work with Model 1113?

A: The Model 1113 slide on hinge is compatible with standard EU 45x45mm mounting plates—the same plates used for most European-style cabinet hinges. This means you can use your existing mounting plate inventory without changes. The slide-on arm mechanism simply presses onto the plate, allowing for tool-free installation and easy door removal when needed. We recommend using our matching mounting plates for optimal fit, but any quality 45x45mm plate with standard spacing will work.

Q: What are the typical applications for this thin door hinge?

A: The Model 1113 9.5mm shallow cup hinge is widely used in several markets:

• Flat-pack furniture: Ready-to-assemble cabinets using 12-16mm panels for lightweight shipping
• Budget housing projects: Affordable kitchen and wardrobe units where thin doors reduce material costs
• RV and marine cabinets: Weight-saving applications in recreational vehicles and boats
• Display cabinets: Lightweight doors for retail displays and exhibitions
• Children’s furniture: Safer, lighter doors for kids’ rooms and play areas
• Hotel furniture: Back-of-house and guest room cabinets where cost matters
• Export to price-sensitive markets: South America, Africa, and parts of Asia where thin panels are common

Q: What is the quality and testing standard for Model 1113?

A: Even though Model 1113 is positioned as an economy solution for thin doors, we maintain strict quality control:

• 30,000 cycles open-close test: Equivalent to approximately 10 years of household use
• 24-hour salt spray test: Basic corrosion resistance for indoor applications
• Load test: 3kg per hinge (sufficient for lightweight thin doors)
• Material thickness: 1.8mm hinge arm, 1.2mm cup (same as our standard hinges)
• 100% visual inspection: Before packaging

We provide batch test reports upon request and offer pre-shipment inspection for container orders. While this is an economy hinge, “economy” means no unnecessary features—not low quality.

Q: Can I get samples of Model 1113 to test on my thin doors?

A: Absolutely—sample testing is highly recommended especially for thin door applications where fit is critical. Our sample policy:

• Free samples: 2-5 pieces per model (you pay shipping)
• Shipping: DHL/FedEx/UPS delivery in 3-5 days
• Sample production time: In stock, ships within 24 hours
• Customized samples: For OEM inquiries, sample production takes 5-7 days

We strongly encourage you to test Model 1113 on your actual door panels to verify the fit, especially the 9.5mm cup depth with your specific door thickness. This ensures perfect results before committing to bulk orders.
