Hinge fixing in MFC

[mikefab]

Hi All,

I'm putting together some built in cupboards for our neighbours. The carcasses will be Egger MFC. What is the best way to fix the hinge mounting plates? Are the 'Expando' fixing versions better than using a chipboard screw?

I've seen a fair few hinges coming away from mfc carcasses in the past although my understanding and hope is that the Egger stuff is rather better than what is used in the budget kitchens. This isn't a paid job but obviously I want to do it as well as possible since I will have to sort them if they go wrong!

Thanks for your help and I will try to post some pics when they go in.

Mike

I use the expando blum plates , they work very well.

Thanks Chippy. That's helpful. I'd be planning to get them from M&D following a previous heads up from this forum.

No worries they're usually the cheapest for blum. Google for codes they usually have discount codes floating around
