Evolve Hands-Free Silent Close Hinge

Platinum Award
Up until the introduction of Wood Technology's Evolve Silent-Close hinge, self-closing concealed hinges employed spring force to securely shut the door. The spring design slams the door shut with significant force when the opening angle reaches approximately 15 degrees. This slamming force can be a potential cause for injury and may damage the contents of the cabinet or the cabinet itself. It is also a significant contributor to interior noise pollution. Up until this point, manufactures have addressed these problems by employing adhesive bumpers and other damper devices. These options require additional products to be installed on the cabinet, thereby adding additional SKU's and installation processes. The Evolve Silent-Close hinge does not use spring tension to close a door. It instead incorporates a pneumatic actuator into the hinge design thus resulting in a completely new function for this style hinge. By all outward appearances, Evolve looks like a typical 110-degree European clip-on hinge. However, when the door is closed to 80-degrees, the pneumatic actuator engages and closes the door automatically. The action is soft, silent, and hands-free. Door slams are eliminated and numerous other benefits are realized.
