If your wondering how I install these doors on the cabinet carcass, watch my videos on how to build a curio parts 1 & 2, this video is just a demonstration of how to use the jig. Part 1 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qdF0qsWAzLXUdZs.html Part 2 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nrVkoMZ7ztnUmI0.html

Thanks Anthony. Great video! My contractor stopped coming before the doors were put on my built-ins so I decided to take matters into my own hands. I am a fairly decent DIY type but never installed concealed hinges. I was nervous that I would ruin the cabinet doors. With your guidance, I completed the project and they turned out great. I did take time to buy a 3/4" plywood blank for a test run which worked well and gave me confidence to finish the project. Keep up the great how-to videos.

I liked your step by step instructions in the installation of these hinges. A little constructive criticisms, your should have turned the clamps over, when clamping the jig in place, to keep from denting the face on the front of the door. Or use a scrap of plywood to minimize the impact. All-in-all a good video.

Nice video for using this jig. I was hoping you would show how to align the two doors perfectly when installing them back to the cabinet. My concern in the curved edge on the outside of my cabinet drawer that it could make a hole on the edge if it goes too far in when drilling the hole with the jig.

@hobbithabits2806 2 жыл бұрын

Thank you for this video. At my wife's request (of course ;-)) I am replacing flush mount (full inset partial wrap?) hinges with soft closing, concealed, mortise-type hinges (as you install in this video). Our cabinet doors have a routed hidden curve (grab edge) all around the edge. This means when looking at the cabinet straight on there's a 1/2" overlay but because of this routed grab edge the actual overlay is about 1/8". When measuring the overlay for a mortised soft-close hinge I suspect I should use the outside edge of the door; in other words the 1/2" since that is truly how far the door edge extends past the frame edge. Correct?

@rhondahawkins9174 Жыл бұрын

I am replacing my old hinges with soft close. I’ve patched holes from old hinges. Do I need to change where I install new hinges? I’ve read about wood fillers, epoxy and putty, they all say you can drill them but they are not strong enough to hold cabinet doors. My old hinges were placed 3” from top and bottom, should I change measurement when installing new hinges so I’m not drilling into wood filler or epoxy?

Okay! Your video gave me the confidence to go for it!!!! Thanks Anthony! Curious about if I should drill for the pull handles while the cabs are laying flat OR wait until I install in case hinge adjustments are made?

As long as you made the doors all the same size, you can install the pulls either way.

When your doing double doors with no center stile and you measure the rough opening and then add for your overlay then get the size of your two doors do you make them.excat width are you make each door a 1/16" smaller i know some hinges have adjustments for the gap between the doors

@AnthonyScolaro1 3 жыл бұрын

If you don’t have or can’t find instructions online for those hinges, I’d start with the dial settings on 4. Then test it on scrap the same thickness as your doors. Mount the scrap with the hinge to the cabinet carcass and check your reveal. If it’s not where it should be, get another scrap and change the dial setting plus or minus one depending on if you need it to move in or outward.

So if my doors dont lay on the front of the cabinet, and go inside flush with the front, can i use these types of hinges? If not. What CAN i use?

@AnthonyScolaro1 4 жыл бұрын

DUNAiden 985 you are referring to what’s called “inset doors”. inset doors can use these types of hinges but you have to make sure the package says “inset”. The hinge package for the doors I made say “overlay” because they overlay the face frames.

@elguapo1507 Жыл бұрын

Now check to see if your hinge is square. Unfortunately its a well reported paradox that the Kreg jig is out of alignment for the two screws so always use your square and a self centering drill bit to put those pilot holes in. The 35mm hole positioning works very well indeed, it's just those screws.

@jasonmartinez2434 3 жыл бұрын

Anthony, this video gave some great info for installing the hinges, but can you make a video explaining the hinge differences and what and when to use them?? For instance, the sizes of the hinges, such as 1/2", 3/4", etc....I go to Lowes or Home Depot and there are like 10 different hinges that look the same and I am lost, hahaha

@AnthonyScolaro1 3 жыл бұрын

I’m glad the videos are helping, the size of the hinge 1/2”, 3/4” overlay etc... all depends on what size overlay you want the doors to be or what existing doors you have on cabinets. If you have a cabinet with an opening of say 15 inches from the inside of the face frame and the door measures 16 inches from side to side, then you have a 1/2” overlay. So you’d buy 1/2” overlay hinges. The overlay measurement refers to the amount the door overlays the opening of the face frame all around. 1/2” means the door is 1/2” bigger than the opening on all sides and top and bottom. I hope this helps. I’ll probably do a video on hinges down the road.
