Overlay
or Inset — what's the difference?
Here's
something to consider when selecting hinges
Look at your cabinet design before selecting hinges. On Eurostyle cabinets,
hinges are attached directly to the cabinet side. This gives you the option
of fully overlaying, half overlaying or insetting the door within the opening,
as shown below.
Overlay
applications
If you decide to use an overlay cabinet design, select full overlay hinges
for the ends and half overlay hinges in the middle of a row of cabinets.
Inset applications
Inset doors are recessed into the cabinet carcass to create a completely
flush, clean-lined look.

How
many hinges and how much adjustability?
 Use
the chart to determine how many hinges you'll need for the height and weight
of your door.
A door
that is 43'' high and weighs 14 lbs. requires three hinges. If your door
is only 24'' high but weighs 14 lbs., go with three hinges for maximum
support and stability.
Use on 5/8'' - 3/4'' doors unless otherwise noted.

A great hinge but it is on the large side of things. If you need a wide opening hinge, you can always trust Blum to have a superior product. They should last for a lifetime.

Easy to install. Easy to adjust. Works great.They are more bulky than hinges which do not open widely.

Customer Rating:
For a TV area built into a wall of cabinets w/doors, we replaced the existing Blum hinges on just one set of doors with these that allowed the doors to lay almost flat when opened-and we could not be happier. An easy plug (with a dowel) was sufficient to plug where the former hinges were attached -
The best thing was the advice the Rockler staff gave when I had a hard time choosing the right hinge.

While redoing my son’s room I had to re-build a wall which happened to have our flat-screen TV hanging on the other side. I’ve created a closet to pull all the wires through and to put hide the surge controller. I’ve built a custom in-the-wall shelf unit and used the concealed hinges to provide a zero clearance for the unit.

I bought the inset version of this hinge, and it works perfectly. It was easy to install and it adjusts 3 ways. My customer is very happy with the cabinet access provided by the 170-degree opening.

This is a very nice hinge. It was easy to install but I do not think when they say a half overlay they do not mean 1/2" overlay. I just made that mistake and had a large mess on the last day of smooth going project. This is more like a 5/16" overlay. This makes a big difference if you have drawers above the door to line up to. Of course now I see the illustrations that show one half of a 3/4" board, not 1/2".

Customer Rating:
I ordered this product to replace butt hinges on an inset cabinet door. The customer no longer wanted to have visible hardware but still wanted the full opening provided by the old hinges. This item proved to be a perfect replacement, was easy to install, well made, and provided an ample amount of adjustment possibilities for the perfect fit.
