Scott is my friend! You showed my hinges and I saw that plastic piece and realized it was PART OF THE HINGE and not packing material to be pulled out! I’ve worked in retail TOO LONG! Do you know how long I researched it on Google and NOBODY showed the actual HINGE! You ARE THE MAN! I am a well informed student now- many thanks 😊 Brig

Thank you so much for this video. I’m a single mother and I am always looking to see how I can fix things myself.

This is so helpful. I want to save these 70's cabinets and paint them but the hinges were bothering me. I love the black. I am excited!!

Your videos helped me out cutting my hole for my kitchen sink. Now I'm on the upper cabinets.

Really appreciated watching this video. We are updating our kitchen, so changing the existing cabinets from dark stain to white paint. (light Sanding, Kilz adhesion primer (2 coats) and Dutch Boy Ultra White 2 coats final) Taping the drill bit with painters tape was awesome to drill new screw holes. I combined that with using the painters tape to hold the old hinges (like they were screwed in) on the bottom and right sides of the cabinet doors. This guaranteed me I would have enough gap for the door to open and close after mounting. Then, I held the cabinet door up very firmly so the new hinge mounts would be completely flush with the wood. (new hinges would snap fully 'extended'). Then, I drilled new holes on the cabinets if needed for the new hinges. Used a hand driver to tighten the screws up, and viola!, every door now closes properly with no gaps!! Thank you so much for this video and your ideas.

You are a man of the people.

I wish I had a guy like this in Los Angeles. The people I work with would drive a guy like this to the psychiatric ward. Keep up the good work my friend.

I have so many cabinets that need new hinges. you explained it the best thanks now I'll get my 75 or so hinges.Yeah I told you I have a lot of cabinets. Thanks

Thank you for such clear descriptions of hinge parts and types. I’ve been struggling to figure out what type of hinge I have removed and need to replace. Going to the hardware store asking for assistance has not been of any help. Thank you once again!

Thank you for this clear demo. Now I know why the replacement hinges I bought for my bathroom vanity doors weren't cooperating. Back to the hardware store!

What about adjusting them when you have 2 doors that butt-up against eachother with this style hinge?

A HUGE thank you. I need to replace my kitchen hinges and they show on the outside of the cabinets...I got very confused at Lowes looking t all the choices

I wish I had say your video before buying replacement cabinet hinges. I wanted the original 1/2 face mount hinges in a different color, to update the look on my cabinets doors in the kitchen and bathroom. Instead I purchased the 3/8’s hinges. 😭 Which would’ve required me to drill new holes in order for them to work. 🤷‍♀️ I honestly don’t know if that would’ve worked or not. Would hv worked? 🤔 I was to afraid to find out, not to mention do all of that extra drilling new holes and making sure the measurements were correct. I’m stuck with bags of extra gold hinges I couldn’t return to the seller off eBay. Anyways, I know the difference between them now. Your video was so helpful! TFS! 🤝

When you have two doors that meet in the center, and your new hinges don’t go in the same holes as the old ones on the cabinet itself. What is the best way to get the doors to meet in the center and not pinch anywhere in the 3/8 inset? Having a terrible time....

Great video! Trying to hold the cabinet door by myself without a third hand! 😉

Well done! In the past I’ve replaced literally hundreds of doors, mostly with the half overlay/ inset doors, on older face frame style cabinetry. Usually a big PITA! 🙄 Thumbs up! Stay safe and Healthy! 👍😁🇺🇸

I need to try and figure out how to straighten or level this kind of cabinet door with these type of hinges. I replaced the hinges, and used the original screw holes. Everything lined up, except a few of the doors. For some reason a few are not level to each other. All the videos online for doing this are for the adjustable hidden hinges. Can it be done?

Hey thanks for the video after putting cabinets up I noticed that the height of some of them aren’t matching up the boards lengths are the same but they aren’t level to their matching cabinet door buddy any suggestions to fixing that or do I just need to take them off and re put them up better?

I reused my hinges bc in my area they cost $9 ea. I scrubbed the old paint covered hinges with Q-tips and Acetone .Readily cleaned off all the grit and old paint. It only took few minutes.

Hi, I'm having a hard time finding the hinge you're using!!! No one has it. I have 1/4" overlay. Threw all the old hinges out. I keep seeing one that says semi-wrap. My old hinge looks exactly like the one you replaced

Thank you for this video. I was replacing the new hinges with face mount hinges and really didn’t know how it should go. But following your simple directions helped me to install the bathroom cabinet door without any problems.

What if I can’t get the doors to close all the way... what should I look into

Thanks for your video it help me to finish my proyect.

So glad I found your easy to understand video. I am a 76 year old lady about to paint my kitchen cabinets and was worried about replacing the hinges. I have one question. What if the place you need to put a new screw has a stripped out hole already?

I have old cabinet like this in my rental, Thanks!

Please explain to me- how do I know har far to drill my pilot holes? I am new to power tools/drills and I like how you put the blue tape on your drill bit, but I don't know how far to drill pilot holes. Thank you

OK. How did you decide the correct distance from your 90 degree door edge and the inside edge of your hinge? Or how far out to mount it in order to ensure door is centered over the cabinet opening equidistant??

Thank you for a very nicely done video. Learned a lot for my upcoming project!

I replaced my hinges and they are three hole on the cabinet doors. I matched the new hinge holes to the original ones on the cabinet. How can realign them so they will close? Two cabinet doors are suppose to meet but not rub in the middle and they are crooked and are too close together. Am I going to have to take them off and make new holes? There is no screw or any thing to adjust them. My brother suggest I go back and get the ones you can adjust. Are they the self closing hinges? Thanks

Thank you so much for your tips to install my cabinet doors

How do I make new holes and make the doors match alignment? I took the hardware off and patched the holes that were there.

My doors on my armoire are crooked. They have 3/4 partial wrap hinges. I took hinges off and put doors up to see how they would be straight. To make them straight, the left bottom of the left door has to shift 1/2 in. Inward and the right side bottom of the right door goes past the armoire 1/2 in. I am so confused. I measured the cabinet and cabinet and doors are the same size. Is there away to straighten them using the hinges. Thank you for any help!

Thank you for the video--exactly what I needed.

I wish I could upload a photo, if I can I don't see how. I've got new hinges that have a plastic insert and they're really difficult to open. I'm assuming this plastic piece needs to come out but I'm not sure how as it's really tightly in there. They're the same hinges you have, just with a plastic bit inside the hinge itself. Is that normal and will loosen up maybe once installed or do I remove them, if so how? Thanks so much for the video, hope my question makes sense.

What about the plastic piece within the hinge?? It's that to be removed?

I’m replacing some hinges exactly like this. I have some cabinet doors that worked perfectly putting all the screws back in the same holes. I have other cabinets that didn’t work so well for. Some are rubbing at the opening. Some are now propped open and won’t close all the way. Can you give me some insight on what could be going on or how I can fix this?

I just replaced all of my hinges (24) and all went well - except one door. It will not fully close. It stays open about 1/2". What is my next step? Thanks!

The top of my door isn't closing all the way. Is there an adjustment I can make to the hinge to get it to close?

Good video on those hinge stile, but...... I have TV stand with two doors very similar to what your bathroom cabinet is and about same size but with no hinges, they are just setting in place with temp nail to hold the the doors in place, I'm tied of the nail in nail out.... My problem is, my doors go all the way to edge of cabinet on both sides and sets against a 1" wide 3/4" thick wood strip frame, I dont have that space you have around your doors where the hinges screw in.... I want 4 self closing hinges or some way to latch doors shut.... So how or what stile hinge will work? What kind of hinge would you use if your doors went to the edge of of your cabinet? Is there a hinge that will screw along the outer edge back toward wall and still close the door? I want 4 self closing hinges or some way to latch doors shut.... Thanks for any ideas that you can give.............

great video, we have an old house with those exact doors and hinges. Question, do they make a hinge (or an add on piece) that would allow for soft close (vs just close)?

What is you don't have the previous hinges to use as a guide? How do you know where to place brand new hinges?

Seems the same hinges when you tight end the screws the door move towards the. Center of I loosen the screws the door goes back towards the hinges

Was looking for instructions, on an inset hinge, new install. I can't get these to sit flat to screw them on, especially in tight corners. The springs, preload these past the 180 degree point. I need 4 hands to stretch these open, push them flat, drill or mark holes and screw down

My door stayed ajar a half inch so I did something wrong. At 3:29 you do not mention whether hinge is flush with wood or not. I have 2 doors that need to close together, 4 hinges. Hours later I can't figure it out.

How do you know exactly where to put the new holes on the door so that it still aligns with existing holes on the face frame? It appears that you didn't push the hinge all the way up against the side of the door. At least that's what it looked like in the video.

So do you recommend taking the cabinet door down and then Add the new hinges?

Best explanation

We updated our kitchen cabinet hinges with newer ones. When attaching to cabinets the holes didn't line up, they were overlapping where the gap should of been and when tightening the screws down, the bottom or top would drop or lift not allowing the doors to align. What did i do wrong???

Great. Thank you

I just bought new inset hinges. I did exactly what you did and now my doors are sagging and the double doors under the kitchen sink do not line up. Is there any way to adjust these type of hinges? When I tighten the screws on the facing, I literally watch the cabinet get pushed to where it doesn't fit properly. If I loosen the screw the cabinet goes back to where I placed it but then the hinge is loose on the facing aspect. I don't see any way to adjust. So frustrated because I already broke one of the self closing components due to "trying" to bend the hinge a bit. I also tried remounting the hinges. Got better results but not perfect. Thank you in advance.

I made sure I got the exact kind and my door doesnt close. Someone said I need to adjust the pin? What pin?

Just the info I was looking for ! Thanks!

I just subbed too. Thanks again.❤ Btw, what do you do if it’s already stripped? Also, do you absolutely need that same type of drill bit to install the screws?😊

Thank you, bless❤ like it.

you put an existing door. how do you fit new doors with these hinges.how do you mark.

Thank you, this was very helpful..

How do you install the same hinges but installed inside the frame with 1/2 overlays

Thank you so much! That was extremely helpful!

Just installed a half inch door but it wants to stay partially open and not tight against the frame. What did I do wrong?

Goddamn i spent maybe triple the money for doing it myself instead of buying a replacement for cheaper lol but the pride i feel everytime i open that missplaced door is priceless

Self closing hinge barely moves prior to installing. Is that normal or is it defective?

Is it recommended to reuse the same holes?

Scott, I have self closing hinges in my kitchen cabinets that lost their vigor, and the cabinet doors stay open. Is there a way to fix the hinge so i'ts tight again and keep cabinet doors closed?

Super helpful video, man! Much appreciated. My question is this: where did you find those specific hinges that you installed? We went with a white countertop/black accents look, and we have almost the exact same hinges that you used to have on yours. We’d love to save ourselves a bunch of online shopping and just go get the ones you bought!

Hi, can I replace this type of hinge with a embed type hinge for the kitchen cabinet doors? My doors only overlap the face frame by about 1/8”. I’m trying to make the doors soft close. Any installation tips would be appreciated. Thanks for posting your helpful videos.

Please help. The new hinges are identical to the original but they won't close smoothly. 😢

My cabinet doors when hung are anywhere from 1/2 inch to a couple inches apart. I’ve tried rotating the doors to make sure the right cabinet face is on the right cabinet. This has been extremely frustrating

Can I use that type of hinge on the inside so it doesn't show?

I have old hinges. Both parts are on the outside door. I do not want these old school ones but I'm not sure if it is fine to buy the ones you just installed or if it will work the same.

Do these hinges need the magnets for doors to stay closed?

My kitchen cabinets have a side pocket to insert the door hinge what are they called and can I switch out for a different hinge

How many inch did you drill?

How and where can I buy those same exact hinges.

We are replacing these same type hinges because the old ones are rusty and have been painted over several times. We have installed all hinges on the uppers and several on the lower cabinets. We are down to 3 sets of doors and no matter what we do we cannot mount the door with hinge attached to the fronts of the cabinets. The hinges are sitting exactly where the old ones were but the hinge will not lay flat on the cabinet. We have tried every "trick" we have been told about and none have worked. Any tips for us?
