Side adjustment ... regulates the gaps between doors, cabinets and walls for perfect parallel alignment.

Overlay or Inset — what's the difference?

Here's something to consider when selecting hinges
Look at your cabinet design before selecting hinges. On Eurostyle cabinets, hinges are attached directly to the cabinet side. This gives you the option of fully overlaying, half overlaying or insetting the door within the opening, as shown below.

Overlay applications
If you decide to use an overlay cabinet design, select full overlay hinges for the ends and half overlay hinges in the middle of a row of cabinets.

Inset applications
Inset doors are recessed into the cabinet carcass to create a completely flush, clean-lined look.

How many hinges and how much adjustability?

Use the chart to determine how many hinges you'll need for the height and weight of your door.

A door that is 43' high and weighs 14 lbs. requires three hinges. If your door is only 24' high but weighs 14 lbs., go with three hinges for maximum support and stability.

Use on 5/8' - 3/4' doors unless otherwise noted.
