Cabinet Hinges
Most cabinet hinges are visible to the naked eye and they come in numerous styles to add a touch of class to your cabinets. Hinges are available in various materials including brass, steel, nickel, copper and bronze to match your cabinets and room accents. Most hinges are ornamental and decorative in nature, plus they're easily replaceable. There are basically four ways that cupboard doors are attached to cabinets. Overlay is the first method. This means the door is bigger than the opening and lays over it. The full inset method means that the door sits flush against the cabinet surface. Inset doors are in the opening with part overlaying the opening. Offset is similar to inset, but the hinge is surface mounted and entirely visible. Hinges are available for all these styles and most sets come with screws included. Cabinet hinges can be bought for less than $5 online.
