I wish every tutorial on RUclips was as clear and well structured as this one. Great video
Thank you! 👍
I second that, love that you don't talk lots of uneccessary nonsense like so many RUclipsrs. I tested the scribing method today from one of your other videos, thanks, it worked, my customer was happy with the results. Now I must just learn how to make the wardrobe doors close correctly, and not make "dogs ears" I think I joined the rails and stiles a bit crooked....
Really very helpful thanks a lot explains very well thank you
Once again, I’ve learned something about something that has frustrated me over the years. Thank you.
Here in USA. Really appreciate you passing on knowledge and advice and not a lot of worthless fluff. Thanks.
Thank you! 👍
first 2 and a half minutes of this video made everything clear about these hinges for me, another amazing video
Thanks! 👍
@@10MinuteWorkshop ive been binge watching your old videos mate, really enjoying them, thanx
Appreciate the views! Thanks! 😆👍
Thanks very much for this video, Peter. I've been intimated by these hinges and have been avoiding them for years, but this video completely demystified them for me and I'm going to give them a go. Thank you for all your helpful information (and cheerful style).
Perfect timing - thank you Peter! I've been trying to make sense of the Blum catalog recently - you've given me a shortcut to exactly the right item :-)
Glad to hear it Jeremy! There’s a hinge (and mounting plate) for every possible application, but these ones will do most of what most people want of a hinge 👍👍
A lot hinges on this.
Excellent film Peter.
Liked & Subbed.
Thank you Peter Millard for taking the time to upload this tutorial as it has provided me with much information that has helped me with re-surfacing kitchen cabinets. The detail and dimension provided is very useful. This tutorial and other similar tutorials you have taken the time and trouble to post online are invaluable.
I always enjoy the simplicity of your installs. You’re one of the top RUclips channels I always watch.
Thank you! 👍
I've needed this information for ten years. A big mystery for loads of jack-leg carpenters in Chicago!
Very focused, and no waffle. Excellent video!
I used these exact same hinges on a rebuild of my own kitchen 2 years ago. I do find that they have needed some fine adjustments after being installed for awhile. Other than that, I am happy with them. Thanks, Peter!
This was a much needed video! When I was first learning how to install these it was hard to find a video that explained it so well.
Thank you! 👍👍
thanks Peter , gllad I found you, nothing like a Brit for just plain down to earth straightforward explanations, A brit myself living in canada a DIY guy about to make some plywood doors for my daughters existing open cabinets for her art prints (Jennas Doodles ) Ill be looking into you other videos as I attempt to build cabinets for other projects thank you so much Bill Gregory
Peter, i've only recently found your channel. You've been a real help to me in my campervan recently with your brilliant videos on hinges and cabinets. Just had to say thanks for your efforts mate. RUclips at its best.👍
Thank you! Really appreciate the feedback! 👍
Nicely Done And Thank You For You Time Showing Us How To Instal Euro Stile Hinges Over Lay And Insert Cabinets Doors😉👍🏽📐🪚🔨🪛
My friend, I have been seeking a full video on these for some time. Just zone in on one hinge and give me a lesson. Brilliant. Thanks mate.
Glad it helped! And thanks! 👍
Hi Peter- thank you for the practical and straightforward demo and the part numbers too.
I’ve made a mental note to make sure I align the inset door with the inside edge of the carcass if using the inset style hinges.
Obviously your ‘deliberate mistake’ of using the marking up footage twice was to make sure we’re paying attention 😂👍
A
To-the-point with professionally detailed video. TY!
You're welcome! 👍
Ohhh... finally... someone explained (a little) about how to mount the plate onto the carcass...
Making my own hallway cabinets as a very unhandy person. These videos are an excellent guide on getting started! Thank you so much.
15 minutes well spent. Thank you for the information. You have given us escape route from sifting the 100 s of pages of technical specification.
Thanks! Yes, there's an awful lot of data to sift through! 👍
Peter, very good video.
Finally, a video clearly explaining this in a way that I think I can do. Thanks so much.
This has always been abit tricky for me to get right. Thanks to you, Life just got abit easier.
Glad to hear it, thanks! 👍
Your choice to use the Blum hinges is the best.
Clear, concise and easy to understand. I'm a complete novice. 👍
Thank you
At last, an easy to follow and comprehensive guide to fitting these hinges, thank you.
when adjusting this type of hinge I find using a pozi drive screw driver better to seat into the screws.
Do the door and the carcass have to be the same thickness? I'd like to put doors on a 2x4 frame.
No - these aren’t - but the thickness does have to be within the spec of the hinge. If you’re looking for a hinge that’ll do a full overlay on a 2” frame, then I’m pretty sure you’ll be out of luck - as always though, check the specs of the hinges you’re planning to use. 👍👍
You are so good at educating the rest of us. Was always worried about putting in inset hinges now will give it a try.
I'm building my first cabinet. I am a new Festool user and so far everything is going as planned. Because I am new to cabinet building, I try everything on scrap before making my cuts. I am getting ready to bore the shelf pins and hinge screw holes. I have been pulling my hair out trying to understand the process of hinge install. This short video totally simplified the process. I feel I can go straight out to the garage set the hinges... but I live in Florida and its hot, so the next cooler day will be hinge day. I have 15 cabinets to make. Great video.
This guy hinges
Very informative and so well spoken. Couldn't be clearer as so many how to videos are not. It was worth watching for the narrative abilities of the author alone.
Thank you! 👍👍
Thank you so much Peter for your generous advice. It is paced enough to follow without having to endlessly rewind. Like others I have struggled with this for months trying to repair hinges on perfectly good cabinets. Mission accomplished thanks to you. Will be following your videos.
You're very welcome, appreciate the positive comment. 👍
The first 2 minutes of this video answered all of my questions and was absolute gold. Thank you
Instructive, educational & enjoyable to watch. Thanks heaps.
Absolutely brilliant video Peter,I follow you and Andy on Instagram and RUclips all the time as you both have very informative content,this is probably the best one I've seen on concealed hinges because of the excellent detail you go into as far as measurement and adjustment of the hinges,Thank you so much for the time you take to show how easy some of the woodworking tasks can be if we just take our time and follow your instructions,keep them coming,can't wait to see your next video
Thanks! Good to hear they’re hitting the right tone 👍👍
This channel has such concise and useful information, one of the best on wood working I've found. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
As others have stated. Thanks for rationalising the choices with Blum to 2 hinges and 2 mounting plates. Makes it so easy for the rest of us. Cheers.
Best video I have seen on Blum hinges. Thanks Very Much!!
I was trying to figure out what hinge I needed for my current project and luckily came across your video. I figured out what I needed. Thank you. I'm ordering some of the gigs you showed.
Peter, thanks for the straight forward lesson. I'm getting ready to build a large kitchen. I'm swift at installing but I've always needed help with setting euro-hinges. This will do it for me.
Thanks Leo! 👍
Excellent video. Clear, concise information. Thanks very much.
Thank you! 👍👍
Thank you very much. I was having a little trouble attaching the hinge to the frame. You cleared it up immediately!!!!
Omgoodness, I wish u were here right now helping me.. my arms r so tired.. I did realize, after I had all the hinges in place, that 2 were on opposite doors...I needed two lateral hinges on the same door!:)))
Of all the concealed hinge instructional videos I've seen, this is by far the most informative one.
Thank you! 👍👍
The quality of the editing in this video is extremely solid.
Thanks. 👍
Forgot to say thank you Peter.
Thanks for the very informative video, it helped me repair my bathroom cabinet and save money and time.
This is a simple job which I am apprehensive of doing. Fitted loads of these but never on doors I have made myself. Great video, thank you!
Peter, greetings from Oregon, USA. We had blum hinged kitchen cabinets installed 25 years ago. The upper cabinet doors are 40 inches X 21 inches, with a glass inlay. One of the doors started to not close all the way. So I ordered new hinges (didn't know of lifetime warranty until your video). I'm now going to replace the three hinges and adjust them. Glad that I found your channel. Thank you,Russ
Thanks Russ! And greetings from London! 👍👍
Very interesting stuff Peter. Thanks for posting.
Thank you for this. I need to use these kinds of hinges for the first time on a new project and had no idea what I was getting myself into. You've cleared it up, and now I know exactly what to buy and how to install them.
Thanks! Good to hear it’s helped! 👍
First time DIYing. This was the video that finally made me understand hinges. Thank you 🙏
Haha, thanks! Glad to hear it helped! 👍👍
@Michael Hiers Thank you! 👍
Great ! It's Sunday and after listening your amazing video, I got the tools box and adjusted all cabinets hinges. Thanks for sharing !
👍👍
One of the best videos I've watched under this topic. Thank you so much.
Thank you! 👍👍
Another great programme Peter. I've just signed up to your pattern as I feel I have had such great results from your tutorials. Keep up the good work buddy....
Thanks Mark & welcome to the Patreon party! There’s a behind the scenes special of this video out soon for my Patreon channel 👍👍
Thank you for a great video. Loved the straight forward quick intro followed by the more in depth to follow section. Loved that format. Learnt a lot thank you
Thanks! 👍
An absolutely brilliant video -- thanks so much for sharing your expertise and experience, you've really helped demystify a mind-boggling selection in the catalogue. Really gives a beginner some confidence in tackling a kitchen job. Your presentation is excellent.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful! 👍
Absolutely brilliant as usual Peter very useful info .
Thankyou for this! I bought some hinges from Amazon (not Blum, but very similar), your video led me in the right direction to work out how to fit them and the right borer bit I needed (which I should receive tomorrow). I'm building a large bike lockup (roughly 2m wide, 1m deep and 1.4m high), which is a battle with both hinges and the weather. :D
I now find myself staring at my kitchen cabinets and thinking mmmh time for an upgrade....great video Peter keep up the good work.
Thanks Chris! 👍👍
I’ve waited until I had a go at these before commenting but thank you so much!! I’ve never fitted cupboard doors so easily! These hinges are awesome and the little plastic jig makes them incredibly simple to fit. Thanks again!!
No problem, great to hear it helped! 👍
Thank you so much for your video re cabinet hinges. Enabled me to sort my dad's kitchen cupboard door.
Jo
Thank you Mr Millard for this great video.
Pleasure, thanks for watching! 👍
Thanks a lot for such a informative video and being clear to the point, really helpful.
I've been doing cabinets for years but this video was presented in a way like no other I have ever seen the visual aspect was spot on (camera man} was a true professional the explanation was that of a true teacher (professor) great video one of the best out there Thanks Peter Brett from U.S.
Hi Brett, thank you! Really appreciate the feedback! Best wishes from London, Peter
The RUclips algorithm has me perfectly profiled. What a great channel to have discovered. The ideal presentation style Peter, thanks for putting these guides together.
Thanks Michael, and welcome! Lots of back-catalogue to go through too! 👍👍😆
@@10MinuteWorkshop Absolutely, so much to keep me occupied, thanks Peter. All the best.
Thank you for making this video. I am in the process of my first project that has involved a cabinet door and this video was so well done and easy to follow.
Thanks! 👍
Just what I need. Many thanks! Great informative video as always.
That was pretty in depth, clear and precise how to. 👌
Appreciate all your efforts, mate. 👍
Thanks Bill! 👍👍
Really enjoyed the quick explanation at the start of the video!
Thanks! Just trying to change things up a little 👍
Thanks Peter. From your video i discovered that there are three adjustments for the hinge. Something i never knew. Now i can fix my hinges properly. Thank you.
Thanks! 👍
this is the best information I've found for making sense of concealed hinges. Thanks for bringing some clarity to the sea of information that is mind numbing for a newbie! And the part numbers, yeah!! I was literally about to buy the wrong hinges until I watched this.
Thanks! Yeah, they can be a bit of a minefield, there are so many to choose from! Glad it helped. 👍
Your obvious practical knowledge and experience has come to the fore in this video. Thank you for providing a straight-forward installation solution to what is often for many of us a somewhat taunting process.
Thanks! All those hinges and hinge plates exist for a purpose, of course, but for most people, and for most doors & applications, one of the hinges shown here will do the job just fine. 👍
Great video and you explain everything so well, thanks a lot.
Thanks for the informative, well explained instructions
The success of these techniques all ‘hinge’ on a couple of important things… 😊
these concealed hinges are a great invention. over the years undersink door hinges can go mucky a bit, from condensation and moisture from rubbish bins installed there. i replaced mine with the soft close, they're great. the other problem often experienced on high use doors, like those for accessing rubbish bins, the hinge side eventually can wear the mounting holes larger, due to all the movement.
Wow thanks Peter, very informative. Never knew I needed you, until I needed you lol
My two kitchen doors have now been fixed thanks to you. 🙌🏽
Really pleased to hear that! Thank you! 🙌👍
You just answered all my questions. Excellent video.
Very helpful as always! Thank you so much for the education!
Thank you stuck on hinge adjustment seems to be fine now never get use to them 😂👍
Thank you so much. I just got a Kreg jig and used it for the first time yesterday. Only thing is that the small holes to drill the 062” Dia.Drill bit through need to be longer if you are going to do it in one fell swoop.
Simply explained. Great upload. Thank you.
Thanks! 👍👍
Thanks for completely de-mystifying these things Peter. In one 15 minute video you have answered a lot of questions that the average once or twice a decade installer has.
Thanks Christopher! To be clear, all those hinges and hinge plates in that 125 page catalogue have their use, but for most people, for most uses, the hinges I talk about here cover 90% of what 90% of people want. 👍👍
Hi Peter, I've been tasked (by Mrs H) to chop the top off a G-Plan wardrobe and make 2 bedside cabinets from the bottom, so I need to re-site the hinges. Having watched your video, I now feel more confident in fitting my first ever hinge. Thanks very much.
Thank you! 👍
Great cinematography and explanation. Thank you, Peter. :)
Thank you! 👍
Thank you. This was very useful for me to get my wardrobe door back on.
Glad to hear it, thanks! 👍
Useful as always and saved to my "technique" playlist before it got as far as the jingle! - thanks
Haha, thanks! 👍
finally! walking trough a lot of unclear videos trying to figure out how to install those hinges.. thanks!! :)
Thanks! 👍
I stumbled into your videos and glad i did. No B.S. Just good, concise information. Thankyou sooooo much.
Thanks, and welcome! 👍
I manage a millwork shop using mainly blum hinges for the cabinet doors, this is a great video covering all the basics, well done.
That's great to hear, thanks! 👍
Thankyou Peter very informative as always.
I prefer the hinge plates that use three screws - two in the positions shown by the hinge plates used in this video and a third screw in the back near the clip. I've found that with hinge plates that use only two screws, if the door is hyperextended the hinge plate can wobble and pulls on the screws. If this happens often enough, the screws start to tear from the wood, and eventually the door falls off. The third screw in back prevents this wobble from happening.
This is particularly true for commercial sites, where doors get far more use than in residential sites and employees tend to be somewhat heavy-handed with the millwork.
I've also been recommending 180-degree hinges for all my commercial work to reduce the stress on the hinges from possible hyperextension, to make access for employees easier, and to prevent one employee from walking into (and tearing off) a door that that just been opened by another employee. You won't believe how many doors I had to re-hang from that last one.
Brilliant video, everything so well explained.
Very useful, thank you. These things have always been a mystery to me...Excellent.
Thanks! 👍👍
An old video I know but it was just what I was looking for regarding concealed hinge fitting. I am embarking on my third set of fitted wardrobes for the missus ( one for each of the three homes we have lived in) I have previously done one in sliding door and the other in Bi-fold configurations. This is a bit of a challenge for me so here goes. Very informative thank you.
Thanks! Glad it helped - it's one of my most popular videos, folks just seem to keep coming back to it! 👍
Excellent video. Thank you.
I'm going to attempt this myself on the strength of this video.
Excellent news, and thanks! Let me know how you get on 👍👍
