1 2 Inch Inset Cabinet Hinges. Cabinet hinges come in a variety of finishes, types, and with several different features that make them function a bit differently from one another. The cutout measures 3/8 in the lip direction and 1/2 in the inset direction.
Question i have only done face frame cabinets with overlay doors thus far.
The cutout measures 3/8 in the lip direction and 1/2 in the inset direction. One side fits inside the cabinet face frame, and one side attaches to the back of the cabinet door. Most standard cabinet doors require two hinges. I have 1940's kitchen built by hand (nothing impressive) and the cabinet doors have a 1/2 inch inset.
