hinges

[coach]

Hey guys, I build 90% frameless cabinets and use frameless euro hinges. I use Mepla hinges that fit hinge machine.
I have used face frame hinges but never liked how much the hinge side was off the face.
I bought some of the face frame hinges that fit my machine figuring I had lousy hinges. I had the same results.
I finally put a spacer in the cabinet and mounted the frameless plate to that. Door was adjusted and fit perfect in about 5 minutes.
I spent over 2 hours trying to get 2 doors adjusted on a SB 36 with the f/f hinges. These had 2 adjustments on them.
I would like to use f/f hinges as I can save $1.00 per hinge.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Blum has a face frame plate that screws onto the edge of the faceframe and then takes a standard hinge.
Here's a link to one online seller but just about any Blum distributor should have them. I don't know if anyone else makes something similar.

for years we have used the full overlay face frame blum plate with the standard 3mm setback blum hinge, we can use the 1/2 overlay plate should we have a special application, this has produce a standard and punch free application on any cabinet construction for years!!

we build one ff application to every 250 framless!
