Insetting a cabinet door by 3mm using a butt hinge

[LBCarpentry]

That's interesting, I'm just designing some flush casements and I'm working out what frame section to use.

It's a job needing to match existing, which requires a 14 mm rebate and I want to use Aquamac AQ124 but it's difficult to gauge what gap I need for this. So I was thinking go a bit deeper and if necessary set sash in a tad.


Apols to Sammy for thread hijack,,.

Yes, setting in a tad is much better than them sitting proud of the frame!
It does look better also which is a bonus

Its hard to gauge sometimes how much a compression weather seal will compress....its especially an issue when making heritage windows with cockspur handles rather than espags.
