Hinge Headache

[dave261266]

Hi Guys,

I'm looking for a corner cupboard hinge, I got a couple of the blum inserta 170 degree hinges but unfortunately when they open they mark the door of the next cupboard once they get to about 120 degrees. What I need is one that will clear a door to the left or right of 25mm thickness and open to the 170 degree mark.

I have had a look through woodfit and another which I can#'t quite recall the name of now to no avail.

Can anyone help ?

Regards

Dave

What edge drilling distance have you used and how much smaller than the nominal carcase are the doors. What thickness are your carcases and what height mounting plates are you using??

It is possible to increase the edge distance and either wind out the adjusting screw or use them with +3mm plates to move the pivot point away from the door edge. But you may still have problems with doors over 24mm thick

Edit assume you are fixing 37mm back from carcase front
