Can someone show me exposed vs. concealed hinges?
Comments (6)The link above shows you all of my conceiled hinges, which are the majority of what I have. In our state, we have issues with insets if they dont' have significantly adjustable doors (earthquakes and humidity/dryness). In addition, I'm on pilings, so my house moves even more. So that's why I have mostly hidden hinges, I was also worried about them matching my antique pewter knobs with exposed hinges. I do have one that is exposed. This cabinet is a chalk board and it's only about an inch deep so the hidden hinges wouldn't fit:...See MoreCabinet hinges--to show or conceal?
Comments (2)Thanks for the reply. They are overlay doors, not inset. I appreciate your info....See MoreInset cabinets with concealed hinges
Comments (2)Someday I'll have pics that aren't "move in" messy, but here are a few pics. We don't have exposed hinges because we have several earthquakes, and we live on pilings, so we see quite a bit of movement in the house. The only exposed hinges I have are in the black board cabinet because it was too skinny (it's half an inch deep) for the hidden hinges....See MoreWill these concealed hinges work for my cabinets?
Comments (5)Thank you! I didn't realize 3/8" inset was the term for what we have, that's very helpful. In this case, does overlay not matter then? I found THESE on Rockler's website which seems to be the ones you described but just not soft close, which I'm willing to give up to save some money. The painters quoted us at 3k to paint our cabinets (our kitchen is on the smaller side). Our house is only 35 years old so I'm hoping our cabinets have some life left in them, especially after receiving a quote to have them all refaced ($12k). I'd love to reface them all but not sure it's in the budget for now....See MorePPF.
