I hope the ones you ordered work out for you. What is the size hinge that will fit any cabinet. I am having problems finding size.
I have the Frame cabinets. This was the most informative, easy to understand post on changing out my cabinet hardware! Thanks a million! Wow, everything I never knew I needed to know about hinges. About to make my first cabinet doors, so this was really helpful! Thank you for creating this guide to hinges, and Thank you so much for continuing to host this content!
This post taught me the language I needed to know to discuss my cabinets and I have a better idea what I need now. Bless you and thank you. Great website …glad I found it…..
The thickness of the cabinet box does not matter other than getting the right length for your screws. The only points of consideration are mounting style if you have a faceframe or not and overlay. This site is great and so easy for this 74 year old grandmother to understand. I see that you have answered questions from and as recently as yesterday.
Love it. We recently decided to paint our existing kitchen cabinet doors. We also decided to change to soft close hinges. Not knowing that the existing hinges state the overlay on the inside of the hinge, I went online and learned how to measure door overlay for face frame cabinets. They seem to work just fine. Also, many people have said that if I am replacing hinges to soft close, I only need to replace 2 the middle hinges on 4 hinge doors.
Thank you so much. The only problem I can see with changing the overlay is if you have any cabinets with double doors. If there is no style, then you could be left with a gap. It seems you would save some money doing that, rather than changing all your hinges. Or you can get one that attaches to the cabinet box itself.
I would like to install new kitchen cabinet doors that almost cover the face frame. What sort of hinges should I use and do they need to have a cup drilled in the door? Based on what hinges you can find, you may or may not have too many options. Thanks for this post! I am hoping to achieve an overlay, but not the full european style overlay. Do you still have to buy hinges with a specific overlay amount for frameless cabinets? Thanks for any help you are willing to give! I am about to have my 25 years old cabinets with visable hinges painted and would like to have concealed hinges but not sure what kind I need.
I also would like to have the least amount of work required as my son in law has offered to work on this but he has not done anything like this before.
Can you tell me what you would suggest? Thank you for all the great information! I have a bathroom medicine cabinet where the carcass and doors are made from half-inch material. At the moment it is frameless but I could easily add a face frame if needed. Do you happen to know if there are concealed hinges that will work with that thickness?
I see the cup diameter listed on hinges, but not the depth of the cup. I asked a couple different people at 2 different stores and was looked at like I was completely out of my mind. I want to also replace the visible hinges with concealed, soft close hinges.
So, if you have double doors and no middle stile vertical piece , you would create a gap where you could see into the cabinet. Terms of Use.

Very similar to the Full Overlay, the Half Overlay allows for a door to be mounted on either side of a central carcass panel.
Unlike the Full Overlay, this hinge has a bend in the arm; allowing the cupboard door edge to cover half the side panel, with the other half exposed. This hinge is also often used in wardrobes as well as kitchens.
A visually very different hinge to the Full Overlay and Half Overlay, with a large crank in the arm that allows the cupboard door to be inset or set inside. To assure a door closes behind you, use a spring-loaded butt hinge. Often used on screen doors, you can calibrate these hinges to open or close with varying degrees of tension.
Shown: 3. When closed, it looks like a regular hinge. For specialty woodworking projects, like a box or small cabinet, use the barrel hinge.
This small hinge is ideal for projects where you want the hinge concealed from view. To install, simply drill holes the right size to accommodate the barrels and insert the hinge. Typically made of brass, barrel hinges are not designed for load-bearing applications. They can be self-closing and, with the aid of a couple of screws, adjusted. You can also find larger concealed hinges for doors.
