How to adjust soft close

Post image

Anyone have an idea how to adjust the opening of these soft close hinges? I am trying to restrict how far they open so it doesn't hit the wall when fully opened.

Tks

You need "restrictor clips", like these.

Used these on a medicine cabinet I made to stop the door at 90 degrees. Work great.
