Euro hinges for pin shelf holes

[wcndave]

I have a shelf pin jig from rockler, which has a self centering bit and works really nicely.

One of the features is that the hole spacing, and depth from edge means you can use them for hinges too.

So for a kitchen cab, just create the shelf pin holes, attach hinges, and they are perfectly aligned.

I got some 5mm euro screws and hinges from ironmongerydirect, however the holes in the hinges are too small, clearly for wood screws. I contacted them and they said they don't do any that have holes for the euro screws, and they can't get any.

Any idea where i can get some, as ironmongerydirect is sort of my goto place?

Thanks

Dave

Isaac Lord and Woodfit both do suitable mounting plates so you could just buy those and still use your existing hinges.

That looks perfect, as long as the hinges will fit the attachment... I'll try one ;-)

Have you tried drilling out the holes in the ones that you have? I've done it in the past .
