kitchen cupboard hinges

Comments

  • Hi,
    The hinges are "BLUM" type hinges that are fitted as standard on all kitchen/bedroom furniture. You can get a surface mounted version of these that will just screw in place at the side of the old hinge, and a plastic cap covers the hole on the door where the old hinge was recessed. You will never get the plastic "rawl plug" out, as it is serated and sometimes glued in, so you could just get a plastic cap for these holes as well.
    This any help?

    i fixed some hinges last year at a mates council house. i drilled straight thro the hinge and the cupboard side, and installed some thin bolts/nuts & washers.
    its been perfect ever since.
