trying to find these cabinet hinges

3 years ago

We are in the process of remodeling our kitchen. As part of that we are keeping our cabinets, and just refinishing them. We have a couple of the original hinges that are damaged, and I am having a very hard time finding any information on them to try and find replacements. They are a two piece demountable, but I can’t find anything like them no matter where I look.

There are definitely places that do vintage hardware like that, but I'm at a loss to tell you precisely where to start your search. Have you tried Restoration Hardware or even a big retailer like Build online? You'll want to search for "reproduction hardware" or "vintage hardware" for starters.

Amish-like is Ayr Custom Cabinetry in Nappanee, Indiana. You can see the quality work in loves2cook4six's kitchen in the finished kitchen blog. I used Ayr for my special cabinets in my Chicagoland home. I love them. Nappanee is home to several Amish cabinetmakers. Ken Miller is the go-to guy at Ayr. There is nothing he cannot do. Highly recommended. Ayr can do cabinetry anywhere and has even made cabs for someone in Europe, I think.

Your hinges should be 6 way adjustable, and you should have 1/8'' clearance between the edge of the door and the edge of the race frame, as well as between the butt doors. If you don't have that clearance, then your doors are too wide. You need to adjust your hinges over, and install restrictor clips if the doors have the proper clerance. You also need to understand the fire code with regard to combustible surface over the cooking zone. Minimum of 30" of vertical clearance is required.

You dad did lovely work. Unfortunately, its value only belongs to you. 1969 does not fall into mid-century, so there is no market there. The base has potential. Changing the hardware, possibly painting it…would it work in a front entry, or set it up as a serving piece? If none of those options work, consider maifleur’s suggestion. Your dad’s furniture finds a new home. Sweet.

Clean up your hinges. Get wood putty and fill in the holes you put in the doors, and sand and smooth and touch up the paint as close a match as you can, and put your old hinges back on. Not all cabinets are meant to have concealed hinges, and there is nothing wrong with being able to see the hinges. The holes are on the inside, so once you repair them, they wont be obvious anyway.

We had the same issue in our kitchen that we recently remodeled, but the previous owners had painted over all of the hinges. We found replacements for the double demountable hinges on Menard's. They were definitely not a vintage style though so maybe as a backup, backup plan for you.
