What are European cup hinges?
European cup hinges, also known as concealed hinges, are hidden hinges which mount on the backside or inside of the door and require a hole bored (35mm or approximately 1 3/8″) to house the cup. With advent of the frameless cabinet these hinges are a perfect match to present a clean look for door alignment. The cup hinge is versatile with its’ ability to adjust both vertically and horizontally to compensate for slight imperfections of the cabinet. One of the nice things is that doors can be easily removed and replaced in the same alignment.
