A soft-close hinge sounds simple. Until you install a cabinet and feel one door slam while the next one glides shut.

on ours, soft closing starts at 10° — on the other one, not so much. That's the difference between a door that catches itself and a door that gets a callback.

What else makes the kav hinge different

Patented design — engineered in-house, not off a generic catalog

Soft-close speed adjustment — fast, slow, or anywhere in between, tuned with a screwdriver

3-way fine-tuning — side +3mm and depth +3mm, so panel alignment is set at install, not by luck
