Hi, I got the jig it deluxe concealed hinge drilling system. How do the holes in the guide (3-4-5-11mm) compare to the hinges that say 3/8 1/2 3/4" overlay...? Thank you!
Blum® Nickel-Plated Face Frame Overlay Hinges
BEST ANSWER: The numbers on the guide are indicators to the tab. The tab is the amount of material between the edge of the door and the start of the hinge pocket. For the compact hinges it is usually 3 mm.
Make sure you check the instructions for the hinges before you start.

I currently have kitchen cabinets with 5/16" series 1 110 overlay concealed cabinet hinge, wraparound. This is a blum hinge and some are starting to fail. It appears that blum no longer sells the wraparound hinge and says to use compact 33 edge. Can you tell me what hinge I should be purchasing ?
I need 5/8" Overlay for my face frame cabinet doors. I would like to use the model number 90788 concealed hinge that you carry will this work? It says vairable ovelay from 1" to 3/8" in the description is this correct?
BEST ANSWER: That model may work for you but I would not guarantee it. I am a Rockler customer but they have a limited selection of blum hinges. I would recommend part number BH130.1100.26 for the 5/8 mounting plate. p/n BH33.3600 for the hinge. You may have to do a search for these part numbers. I hope this will help you.

The part of the hinge that attaches to the face frame, how wide is it? The distance from the edge of my face frame to the edge of my pullout drawer box that I installed is 5/16 of an inch. Will the hinge get in the way of the pull out drawer box. Thanks.
BEST ANSWER: By asking the width infers the distance across the face perpendicular to the screw holes. That distance is 1 1/4 in. However, I am pretty sure you want the distance the hinge stands out from the edge of the face frame. That distance is 3/8 in. not including the snap-on cover that can be left off.

I have the 3/4" thick cabinet doors. and they have a profile around the edge. How far back does the cup hole need to be from the door edge? If less than approx 4mm then the hole looks like it will cut thru the door at the profile. Thanks
BEST ANSWER: 3mm at the closest point. The depth is 11mm, which is just slightly less than 7/16". I believe these are pretty standard numbers for these types of hinges.

Does the Blum 1/2 " 55901 have the same distance from center of the hinge to edge of door as the Blum 3/8" 55902? I have built a jig that I am hoping I can reuse for placing the hole in the door. I know the diameter is the same.

How many hinges do I need per door for a door 58" tall and 14" wide...2" maple stiles and rails with 3/16" glass panels?
BEST ANSWER: You could possibly get by with 3 hinges since you have maple stiles which should hold the screws nicely. With a softer wood I would go with 4.

I have model 55910 1/2" overlay hinges. I have what I feel is a large gap between cabinet door and stile when closed. I tried adjusting tighter but door edge hits stile. Any suggestions to close gap?
BEST ANSWER: Not much you can do. It's just the way there designed. I started using the more expensive Blum hinges. More money but a much better design.

I have 31329 1 1/4" overlay hinges. For ease of hanging door, it doesn't look like these come apart like some others. What is the best procedure for hanging the door? Install cup first? bracket first?
BEST ANSWER: I have tried both ways, and I think the best results happen when the cups are installed first. I have made spacers for the bottom of the door to make alignment easier. Good luck, Henry.

I got the Blum Compact 38n hinge w 1/2" overlay. Unfortunately, they seemed to be designed to mount of a 3/4" face frame. My face frame material is only 5/8" thick. Can I still use these, or should I try to find ones designed for mounting on a 5/8" frame?

Perfect fit!
This hinge is an excellent replacement for the original hinges in my cabinets. They fit perfectly straight out of the package and used the existing mounting holes without adjustment. I haven't tried mounting in new cabinets but I'm sure the process would go smoothly. The hinges are well built, heavy duty and the finish is excellent.

Easy to install and use
I'm a fairly skilled DIY'er. Customer service was very helpful in choosing a hinge for my particular application. I needed hinges for fairly large kitchen cabinet doors that are full overlay. Although backordered, the hinges shipped fairly quickly. Even though I didn't use any jigs, installation was easy. I just took my time and took careful measurements. Overall, completely satisfied.

Found 'em
Was not able to find these self closing hinges locally and guess I was blind, didn't see Blum on the existing hinges. Found these in a 2006 catalog I had kept, website still showed them as a current item! The are slightly different than the existing ones but was able to use the existing piece on the door frame with the part that fit in the door.
