I so very much appreciate this video. So simply laid out. So thoughtful! Thank you. Thank you so much for not selling anything and for direct, exceptional teaching.

[bkelevate]

These are my favorite videos of yours that you do. You have such a great way of explaining things. Your cabinet basics video is still one of my favorite woodworking videos on YouTube.

Finally someone using the correct measurement MM AND CM THANKS A LOT

[Wyman]

Thanks so much. I am a beginner and have discovered the ease and quality of the Blum system. These videos clarify things tremendously and teach people like me what to look out for. Please keep the videos coming!

5-Star rated video on the how to install these hinges!

[randallsmith]

Thanks for a very clear, easy explanation of how to do this. I am building a garage storage cart that doubles as a work top for my wife's gardening work and I want to have inset cabinet doors and drawers, so this is perfect. Thank you!

This is hands down the clearest video showing inset door installation.

Well done Jason. I've never installed inset doors, only overlay. Now I have the confidence to do them for my workshop cabinets which I'm in the middle of changing.

[WackyKayaky]

I know this is an old video but I just started using these types of hinges and this video was perfect! Very clear and explained everything I needed to know perfectly!

[Coug]

Another great video Jason. I'm going to be installing these types of hinges for the first time and after your video, I'm confident that I know what I'm doing. Thanks so much.

Great Video, Easy to understand even with the metric measurements lol. I’ve never built cabinets or hung doors before. I’m designing and building out my garage work shop for the first time. I love the inset door look. I imagine inset doors would keep dust from settling on top of the door if they were set outside the frame.

Great tutorial as usual! Those woodpecker Paolini squares are awesome. So versatile. And for those of you who try this w/o self centering drill bits, expect to be disappointed. Now matter how accurate you think you are free hand, you'll see the hinge jut to one side or another as you drive in the screw. That's called the OHNO Second. The split second before you realize you made a mistake and it's going to cost you! :) If you have to redrill, keep some wooden toothpicks around. You can glue the toothpick in to the defunct screw hole and try again. Also, most cheap hinges come with GARBAGE screws. Just throw out the pack and get some quality screws. It'll keep you from filling up your swear-jar! LOL.

I've never built a cabinet nor its doors but your method of explaining gives me the confidence that I could do it.

After two failed attempts to install Soss hinges, this video was exactly what I needed to see. Thanks!

[barrydoxseyuk]

Great video, it's the small comments like the thickness of the door/to set back. I almost set mine back a standard depth when I realised my doors were 25mm thick. Well, you could say they would have stood out!
When not fitting doors often, this is a good refresher course. ACE

[garynewton]

Wonderful video! Simple and to the point. Thanks for sharing. I typically don’t use inset hinges so a quick refresher on measurements and process was perfect.

Fantastic Bent! Thank you fir all of your helpful info over the years. Hinges have always been my nemesis. Tomorrow we conquer the inset hinge!

[t.e.]

I wish I would have known this. I had a small built-in cabinet I could have used these hinges on. I looked but couldn't find any. I assumed they didn't make any euro inset hinges. So I went with full overlay hinges. It came out nice but I would have preferred the inset ones. Thank you for sharing.

[mattbowers]

Man I could have used this video a few weeks ago when installed my first pair of inset doors on a project for my wife. I ended up making my own template. I have 18 doors to mount in some new shop cabinets and will definitely recheck with what you have shared!

This is perfect, and the title cannot be more accurate. Thank you sir
