Concealed Cabinet Hinges

Filed Under Hinges | Leave a Comment

Concealed cabinet hinges give a very sleek and finished look to any set of cabinets.  It doesn’t matter if it’s in the kitchen, bathroom, or garage they look great!  My favorite use for a concealed cabinet hinge is on flat and sharp corned cabinet doors.  Visible hinges on these types of cabinets just doesn’t look right!

Another major benefit of concealed cabinet door hinges is that they’re usually adjustable hinges so you can dial in their position as your house settles into its foundation.

Installing concealed cabinet hinges can be pretty tricky, but doable.  If you’re starting with new cabinet doors it will be the easiest.  You’ll have to drill or miter the hole for the hinge plate to mount flush into the door.  If you’re not comfortable with this, or have the tools to complete the job, I recommend taking it to a local woodworker or cabinet finishing store.

When shopping for concealed hinges keep in mind that they also go by the name European hinges.  The two terms are interchangeable, so when the Home Depot employee gives you a blank stare when you ask where the concealed cabinet hinges are you should try the other term!
