Mar 12, 2008 - I am about to install non mortise hinges for the first time. I would appreciate any tips that would be helpful with the alignment of the door into the. It is easy to install this invisible non-mortise barrel hinge used for wood panels 3/4' thick. Just drill the proper size hole and tap the hinge in flush. Secure mounting in the wood door or panel is assured by tightening the tensioning screw to expand the body of the hinge tightly in the hole.

Background: we have been restoring (not renovating) our 1929 kitchen for 2 years now. We are finally, FINALLY almost ready to paint the cabinets (after 2 weeks of prep work--and I'm only painting 1/2 of the kitchen right now). Last year I attempted to restore the original hinges. They were coated in multiple layers of paint, and turned out to be a poor quality, plated steel, non mortise hinge. The plating came off with the paint. They were rusty under the paint.

And lots of ball finials were broken off. Soooo, I gave up, and reluctantly ordered about 16 pairs of non mortise hinges from Horton Brasses. We are finally trying to install them. What a NIGHTMARE! I can't understand why non mortise hinges are advertised as easy to install.

The main problem: the new hinges are much narrower (front to back) than my old hinges. In order for the inset cabinet door to close all the way, the hinge has to jut out about 1/8 (maybe a teeny bit less). This is how all the old hinges were done--jutting out a bit.

But the new hinges are so narrow, they cannot jut out. If they do, the screw holes would be ridiculously close to the edge of the door and also the face frame. I asked a very nice man at Horton Brasses about this, and he said that usually doors with these types of hinges are back bevelled.

He said he hadn't heard of jutting them out, but, come to think of it, that would work too. If the hinges are wide enough. I wish it had stated something about back bevelling on the website. Do most DIYers who are doing their own hinges actually have back bevelled doors? I've never even seen a back bevelled door before. Ok, my choices, now that I've spent all this money on all these hinges: 1. Install the hinge snug, with no jutting out.

If we do this, the doors do not close all the way on their own. They boing open. However, we have cabinet latches that will hold the doors shut. I guess this adds stress to the hinge, but is that a problem? TheHusband doesn't want to do this because it is inelegant, and he thinks it looks like a hack job. He wants things to be done properly.

Back bevel ALL the doors. I don't want to do this. What if we mess up? The thick, fir 80 year old doors are irreplaceable.

Besides, I've just finished priming all the doors. I don't want to lug out the primer yet again. This is TheHusband's choice. Mortise all the hinges? Probably way more work than back beveling.

And TheHusband hasn't done this before, so there is that whole 'learning curve' thing. One last question: Assuming we just go with option 1. Is there a trick/method to installing these hinges? Each door seems to be a careful custom job to get each wonky door centered in each wonky frame. Nothing is 'standard' in this old kitchen. Is there a basic measuring technique we can use?
