Miles away - totally impractical...
I'm after something that will stop cabinet doors opening beyond a certain point. In some cases this will be somewhere in the region of about 85 degrees, in others as much as 180(ish).

I could attach some webbing on the hinge side but I'd rather see what else might be available before I go down this route.

The doors are in a face frame on butt hinges.

Thanks in advance...
 
Matt, you might need to come up with something customised to do the job but what's the reason for this idea in the first place ?

I have a corner cabinet where two of the doors will hit the cabinet if they're opened too far. Also, the handle of one of the doors might go through a fish tank too. Then, the other two doors, when opened beyond 180 degrees, could pull themselves off their hinges if someone applied pressure.

It's kinda kid proofing the situation :)

I think you may be correct about a custom solution.
