Excellent, clear, with measurements, and explanations. No waffle.

[@fredjones43]

Excellent video showing how to measure, mark, drill and attach the plates. Many videos show you how to drill the the cup holes and attach the hinges to the door. This is the first I have seen that shows how to do the plates on face frame cabinets. I am working on full overlay but it does seem it will be the same.

[@thisoldsaw5438]

Thank you for straight to the point no fuss instructions!

[@steveclark-cu9zb]

Great video. Very clear guidelines. It gave me the confidence to do the job myself. Thank you.

[@sterlinghein]

Just followed these instructions, and they were spot on. Thank you!

[@kjpselecthardwoodsonline]

Great to hear!

[@Pal_Nahal]

Cheers buddy. Exactly the video I needed.

[@PatLap]

Tesolin for prime! 🤗

[@graememitchell3529]

perfect length of video. I don't need 40mins of pre ramble. just show me how to do it. many thanks

[@kjpselecthardwoodsonline]

Glad to hear you enjoyed it!

[@markhugoboom4078]

This is a great video thank you so much for your clear, concise explanations. It enabled me to hang a cabinet door I built. What brand of marking gauge do you use to mark your hinge locations? I liked the one you used. Thanks!

[@adaml99a]

Perfect.

[@glop9139]

What about doors of 20mm thickness?
Surely the mounting plate needs to be closer to the edge, or not?

[@bobbrock41]

NIce video but I find that the vertical adjustment screw will not move . Do I need to loosen the 2 retaining screws first?

[@bobbrock41]

What is the maximum lateral adjustment one can do with these hinges?

[@conradpaul6100]

Whats the square that you measured the 37mm on the carcass called?

[@seanlandsman7516]

Can confirm. Drilling too deep and blowing through the door front does make me sad 😢😂

[@douglasarmstrong1211]

Where can I get a tape measure like yours- looks amazing

[@kjpselecthardwoodsonline]

I believe that's the 1" rule stop. We have the 2" version which connects to a Woodworking Rule. kjpselecthardwoods.com/products/rulestop2

Will all of these measurements work on the Blum 110 degree inset hinges?

[@NatalieKJPSelecthardwoods]

Hi there! The measurements would need to account for the thickness of the door for an inset hinge installation, so they will vary from the measurements in this video.

[@b.j.3729]

This is great, but I would love to have those measurements using inches rather than metric. I don't have a single measuring tape or square that uses millimeters. Otherwise this is helpful.

Blum GmbH was founded by an Austrian gentleman named Julius Blum. The name is pronounced like the English word, "Bloom" as you can see in an interview with his two grandsons:
