Fiber Patch Cable Resilience

We are getting ready to move from copper to fiber between our ASA and core. The issue that I am seeing, is that the cabinet in which the ASAs are mounted in are rather tight. When closing the door, the fiber cables would bend slightly. We could secure them so that the door wouldn't touch them, but it would result in a slight bend ( maybe around 25 or 30 degrees). I dont know much about fiber cables, but I don't figure having a door hit them repeatedly is good for them. We dont really have an option to get a different cabinet at this time.

Is the fiber resilient enough to handle a constant, slight bend?
