Face Frame Hinge Instructions
Vertical Positioning of Hinges
Although Euro-style concealed hinges allow for vertical
adjustment, the mounting plate must line up with the hinge arm
if the two are to snap together and provide the maximum possible
adjustment range. The easiest way to accomplish this is to mark
aligning horizontal centerlines on both the door and the cabinet
face frame. You need to consider the amount of the door’s overlay
or inset when calculating the centerline positions for the door.
1. For the top hinge, measure down from the top of the cabinet
opening to the desired mounting location (typically 2"-3") and
use a combination square to mark the horizontal centerline on
the inside edge of the face frame. (For the bottom hinge,
measure up from the bottom of the cabinet opening.)
Note: Be sure your hinge positions will provide adequate
clearance for any pullouts.
2. To determine the centerline location on the door, start
with the distance you measured in Step 1.
• For overlay doors, add the amount the door will overlap
at that edge.
• For inset doors, subtract the amount of the reveal at
that edge.
3. Use the values calculated for the top and bottom hinge
locations in Step 2 and mark the horizontal centerlines on
the back of the door. Compare the distance between the lines
on the face frame with the distance between the lines on the
door to verify.
Installing Hinges
1. Refer to the Door Diagram to mark drilling locations for
the hinge cup holes and mounting screw holes on the door.
2. Using a 35mm Forstner bit, drill a hole 12.7mm deep for
the hinge cup, taking care to keep the bit as square as
possible to the door.
Note: For fast, easy and accurate location and drilling of
hinge cup holes, we recommend using the JIG IT Deluxe
Concealed Hinge Drilling System (53420, sold separately)
along with a Rockler 35mm Long-Shank Forstner Bit (10117,
sold separately). For those using a drill press, a dedicated
JIG IT setup block is available (58488, sold separately).
3. Drill pilot holes for the screws, taking care not to drill all
the way through the door.
4. Position the hinge cup in the hole and use the included
screws to secure in place.
5. Repeat Steps 2-4 at other hinge location(s).
Installing Mounting Plates
1. Refer to the Face Frame Diagram to mark drilling locations
for the hinge plates.
2. Drill pilot holes for the mounting screws.
Note: For fast, easy and accurate location and drilling of
mounting plate pilot holes, we recommend using the JIG IT
Hinge Plate Template J (58932, sold separately) along
with a Rockler/Insty-Drive #6 Self-Centering Bit (68991,
sold separately).
3. Use the included screws to secure the mounting plates
onto the face frame.
4. Mount the doors by clipping the hinge arms onto the
mounting plates.
