Face Frame Hinge Instructions

Vertical Positioning of Hinges

Although Euro-style concealed hinges allow for some vertical 

adjustment, the mounting plate must line up with the hinge arm if 

the two are to snap together and provide the maximum possible 

adjustment range. The easiest way to accomplish this is to mark 

aligning horizontal centerlines on both the door and the face 

frame. You need to consider the amount of the door’s overlay or 

inset when calculating the centerline positions for the door.

1.  For the top hinge, measure down from the top of the cabinet 

 

opening to the desired mounting location (typically 2"-3") and 

 

use a combination square to mark the horizontal centerline 

 

on the back of the face frame. (For the bottom hinge, measure 

 

up from the bottom of the cabinet opening.)

 

Note: Be sure your hinge positions will provide adequate 

 

clearance for any pullouts.

2.  To determine the centerline location on the door, start with 

 

the distance you measured in Step 1 and add the amount 

 

the door will overlap at that edge.

3.  Use the values calculated for the top and bottom hinge 

 

locations in Step 2 and mark the horizontal centerlines on 

 

the back of the door. Compare the distance between the lines 

 

on the face frame with the distance between the lines on the 

 

door to verify.

Installing Hinges 

1.  Refer to the Door Diagram to mark drilling locations for 

 

the hinge cup holes and mounting screw holes on the door. 

 

Note that you measure from the edge of the rabbet to locate 

 

the center point for the cup hole.

2.  Using a 35mm Forstner bit, drill a hole 9mm deep for 

 

the hinge cup, taking care to keep the bit as square as 

 

possible to the door.

 

Note: For fast, easy and accurate location and drilling of 

 

hinge cup holes, we recommend using the JIG IT Deluxe 

 

Concealed Hinge Drilling System (53420, sold separately) 

 

along with a Rockler 35mm Long-Shank Forstner Bit (10117, 

 

sold separately). For those using a drill press, a dedicated 

 

JIG IT setup block is available (59029, sold separately).

3.  Drill pilot holes for the screws, taking care not to drill all 

 

the way through the door.   

 

4.  Position the hinge cup in the hole and use the included 

 

screws to secure in place.

5.  Repeat Steps 2-4 at other hinge location(s).

Installing Mounting Plates

1.  Refer to the Face Frame Diagram to mark drilling locations 

 

for the hinge plates on the back of the face frame.

2.  Drill pilot holes for the mounting screws, taking care not 

 

to drill all the way through.  

 

Note: For fast, easy and accurate location and drilling of 

 

mounting plate pilot holes, we recommend using the JIG IT 

 

Hinge Plate Template for 3/8" Lipped Door Hinges (50908, 

 

sold separately) along with a Rockler/Insty-Drive 

 

#6 Self-Centering Bit (68991, sold separately).

3.  Use the included screws to secure the mounting plates 

 

onto the face frame.

 

4.  Mount the doors by clipping the hinge arms onto the 

 

mounting plates.
