Concealed Hinges 101

The first step in successfully installing concealed cup hinges is to choose the right one! Nick shows three basic types of doors – inset, overlay, and partial overlay – and demonstrates how to fit them to cabinets, explaining how to select exactly the hinge you need based on how the door fits the cabinet. He then walks you step by step through a typical installation, choosing, marking, drilling, attaching, and adjusting traditional lipped doors on a framed cabinet.
