For cabinetry you can use blum, salice, grass and any other number of other hinge combos to create a soft close of the doors.

But what do people do if you want to have a soft open/close mechanic for large doors that otherwise need traditional hinges?

Anyone ever done this? Particularly concerned with two very large steel doors I am putting in that I am concerned my kids will constantly slam shut or swing into the door stop (one day shattering the glass).

These doors require traditional hinges so I can’t just go with a more commercial type hinge with built in resistance. Hoping someone has another idea?
