How do I install flap hinges?

The installation of cup hinges can be successfully completed in just a few steps:

  • Step 1: Marking out: Start by marking the position of the hinges on the door and the cabinet side. The hinges should be about 5 cm from the top and bottom edges of the door.
  • Step 2: Drilling holes: Once the positions are marked, drill holes at the marked spots using a Forstner bit. The depth of the hole should correspond to the length of the hinge cup.
  • Step 3: Insert hinges: After the holes have been drilled, insert the hinges and secure them with the corresponding screws.
  • Step 4: Attach doors: Finally, the doors must be attached to the cabinet. Special attention should be paid to alignment. If necessary, use the adjustment options on the hinges to find the optimal position.

Remember to always follow the hinge manufacturer's instructions as a precaution, since different brands and models may have slight differences.
