In this picture the dashed line designates the actual inside edge of the cabinet frame. The Overlay is the distance from the inside edge of the cabinet frame to the outside edge of the door.
The most common overlays range from 1/2" to 3/4" (12.7mm - 19mm).
The formula to determine hinge/baseplate combinations is:
Overlay = Hinge Crank + Cup Drilling Distance - Baseplate Height.
1. Hinge Crank is the amount of overlay inherent in the particular hinge. Salice has four options.
"A" Crank (Full Overlay): 15mm
"D" Crank (1/2" Overlay): 10mm
"G" Crank (Half Overlay): 6mm
"P" Crank (Inset): -2mm
2. Cup Drilling Distance (TAB) is the distance from the edge of the door that the hinge is drilled. The standard drilling is 4mm, but can be changed to influence overlays if needed.
3. Baseplate Height is the thickness of the baseplate. Salice has many options ranging from 0mm to 18mm, and has thicker height achievable with the "SAP" System.
Example:
If I use an "A" Crank hinge with a 0mm basplate and drill my cup distance at 4mm. Then my Overlay equals 19mm.
19mm = 15mm + 4mm - 0mm
