Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge on how to install door hinges correctly! I was having trouble with my own installation and your video was incredibly helpful in guiding me through the process. Your step-by-step instructions and clear demonstrations made it easy for me to correct my mistake and get my door working perfectly. Thanks again for taking the time to create this helpful tutorial!
Very helpful video - thanks. Greetings from Canada. I’m building a cabinet with an inset door and slide-out shelves. I’m looking at using the 155 degree blumotion hinge. The catalogue says I should use a 9 mm spaced mounting plate. I’m not sure what that means - cam you please help me?
I picked up something here I don't think he explained. If you want to use the switch to turn damping off, and do so with door open, the on/off doesn't turn the damping off. If you remove the door from the cabinet and put the hinges in the closed position, then slide the switch off, the door will slam shut.
Great video. Has helped me determine that I need 155º hinges. I have 40mm thick doors, but the blum installation guide says max 28mm thick. How thick is the MDF you used in this video? When you stacked a second sheet on it, it appeared to be similar to 40mm... if so then I think this will work for me :)
Thanks for the great video and detail. I'm installing cabinets flush with a wall so the doors will be super-tight. The 110-degree hinges are exactly what I need to be sure the doors have clearance to open/close properly. Do you happen to know the Blum model number of the 110-degree hinges you used in the video?
I use the term 110 degrees a little loosely, there are 107 deg. and 110deg. but for the purpose of the exercise I just say 110. The simplest available is the part number 75T1590B which is 107deg. Inserta, full overlay. The one with integrated soft close 'Blumotion', Inserta, 110deg, full overlay is .71B3590
Will this hinge also work on a face frame cabinet? I have overhang due to a mirror and your video was great in telling me that can be accomodated. Thanks Joe Q
I have seen it used for that purpose. To be sure, maybe get a pair in your possession and test the geometry. I have not found exact specifications for the clearances.
Do you know of any concealed hinge that would accommodate a one and a half inch overlay while also being mounted on the inside wall? All I can find is Blum 39C355B.24 Compact BLUMOTION 39C, and that's mounted on the edge, which I'm trying to avoid. This is driving me nuts.
I have not used any concealed hinge that does more than about 23mm ~15/16" which is much lees than you are looking for. Also the Blum 39C355B.24 does not operate the same way as the hinges in this video, as it has a single pivot point.
I have Blum 155 zeros protrusion hinges that I've just installed, have adjusted them to their maximum left/right clearance and the doors still overlap in the middle a full 1cm. The manufacturer swears they built the doors & cabinets to spec but nothing I do will make those doors close. Any suggestions?
Would the 155 degree zero protrusion hinge work with a thicker overlay. Im looking for a soft close hinge to use on a toy box ive built and I need a hinge that will give me a 30mm overlay.
@@HelmreichJoineryBemboka do you think I could use these hinges (155 degree) horizontally, the project I'm working on has a 6.5" (165mm) door which swings down. I like the zero reveal of these hinges, just unsure if they will keep the door from falling down. Any advice?
Something about this guy is just nice to watch. Learned a lot!
It’s his accent the pace and full knowledge without confusion
This guy is the best at explaining 155 to 110 I now know what I needed to know

Thank you. I understand why I need the 155 degree hinges now. Thanks!
Thank you! This was very informative. I did not clearly understand the differences in the hinges. Wonderful!
Great video and thoughts on restricting blumotion 110 degree to 90 degrees.. Thanks again Well done!
Great video. I found what I was looking for. I now realize I need the 155 degree hinge, and your explanation on how to adjust are great. Thanks!
Glad to be of service :)
Thanks, the video help me understand the difference between both hinges, thanks for the explanation 😎👌🏻
Great video, absolutely nailed what I was trying to learn - cheers buddy!
Excellent.

Thanks a lot. It definitely helped me decide what hinges to use.
Thank you so much for such detailed introduction.

Thanks for the video. I want to change my existing hinges to zero protrusion. Is it simply a swap job or would there be visible holes?
They should just swap out if the previous ones are Blum.
Great, thanks! Yes, they are Blum.
great video!!
Would the 155 degree zero protrusion hinge work with a thicker overlay. Im looking for a soft close hinge to use on a toy box ive built and I need a hinge that will give me a 30mm overlay.
No, the overlay is still the typical ~~18mm
Blum and Salice have a thick door hinge that would work.
Would this work with a frameless inset door?
Great info. Thank you.
Are the 155 degree hinges self close?
Yes, the add on is the damper.

@@tylerhein I can't see why not.
I would probably make a mock up to check that everything does what you want.
Thanks alot
