For the most exacting of demands

Sensys – the hinge with integrated soft-closure

The new Sensys generation of hinges from Hettich combines a consistent design thread with convenience that speaks to the senses. In particular, this includes soft-closing furniture doors from an unusually large self-closing angle of 35 degrees. Reliable furniture-door closure in addition to the evenly gentle closing cycle satisfies the most exacting of demands.

In addition to the outstanding performance of the invisibly integrated "Silent System" soft-closing mechanism, the Sensys hinge also impresses with a new and elegant design: The hinge and mounting plate unite to give a look of harmony. A stylish cover cap hides the hinge cup. The button that releases it for removal cannot be seen from the front.

The entire Sensys range for the kitchen has been available world-wide for all door-mounting styles since the beginning of 2009. This includes hinges with an opening angle of 95° and 110°, hinges for angled cabinets (W30, W45, W90) as well as wide-angle hinges and hinges for aluminium-frame doors.
