Which Cabinet Hinge Type Do You Need?

The hinge type is determined mainly by the closed door position. Do not choose only by the opening angle—full overlay, half overlay and inset hinges create different door positions.

Full Overlay Hinges

The door covers the cabinet side or face-frame opening as fully as the selected overlay size allows. Common on modern frameless cabinets.

Shop 110° full overlay hinges →

Half Overlay Hinges

Two doors share one center cabinet partition, and each door covers only part of that shared panel. Most common on frameless cabinets.

Shop 110° half overlay hinges →

Inset Cabinet Hinges

The door sits inside the cabinet opening instead of covering it. Inset layouts require careful alignment and the correct hinge for the cabinet construction.

Face frame or frameless?

A face-frame cabinet has a wood frame around the front opening. A frameless cabinet has no front frame—the hinge mounts directly to the cabinet box side. Confirm this before ordering.

Before ordering

How to Identify the Correct Cabinet Hinge

Follow this order so the hinge type, cabinet construction and drilling pattern all match.

1

Identify Cabinet Construction

Check whether the cabinet has a front face frame or is a frameless box. The mounting plate and hinge geometry are not interchangeable.

2

Check the Closed Door Position

Determine whether the door fully covers the side, shares a center panel with another door, sits inside the opening or uses a measured overlay.

3

Choose Opening & Closing Style

Use 105° or 110° for standard access, 90° for restricted swing and 165° for wide access. Then choose soft close or standard spring close.

4

Confirm Drilling & Plate Details

Compare cup diameter, cup depth, screw spacing, mounting plate, door thickness and overlay measurement on the product page before drilling.

Replacement-hinge warning: matching only the opening angle or the visible arm shape is not enough. Photograph the old hinge, record every measurement and confirm the cabinet style before ordering.

Common buying questions

Overlay & Inset Cabinet Hinge FAQ

What is the difference between overlay and inset cabinet hinges?

Overlay hinges position the closed door over the cabinet side or face-frame opening. Inset hinges position the door inside the cabinet opening so it sits flush or nearly flush with the cabinet front.

What is the difference between full overlay and half overlay hinges?

A full-overlay door covers its cabinet side as fully as the hinge design allows. Half-overlay hinges are used when two doors share one center partition and each door covers only part of that shared panel.

Are inset hinges only for face-frame cabinets?

No. Inset describes the door position, not one universal cabinet construction. Choose a hinge specifically made for your cabinet style. Berta Store's 110° inset product on this page is designed for frameless inset cabinet doors.

Should I choose a 90°, 105°, 110° or 165° cabinet hinge?

Use 105° or 110° for many standard cabinet doors, 90° where the swing needs to be restricted and 165° where the door must move farther out of the way. Opening angle does not replace overlay and cabinet-construction matching.

How do I measure cabinet door overlay?

Close the door and measure how far it overlaps the cabinet opening or face-frame edge. For frameless cabinets, also confirm whether the door covers a full side panel or shares a center partition. Compare the measurement with the exact product variant before ordering.

How many hinges do I need per cabinet door?

The quantity depends on door height, weight, material and hardware specifications. Use the Berta Store Hinge Quantity Calculator, then confirm the product guidance for large or heavy doors.

Can I replace an old hinge just by matching its opening angle?

No. Also match the cabinet construction, overlay or inset position, cup diameter, cup depth, screw-hole spacing, mounting plate and door thickness. Small geometry differences can prevent proper alignment.

What is the difference between soft-close and standard-closing hinges?

Soft-close hinges use damping to slow the door before it closes. Standard spring-closing hinges pull the door closed without hydraulic damping and can be a practical lower-cost option for some bulk cabinet projects.

Still Not Sure Which Cabinet Hinge Fits?

Compare your cabinet construction, closed door position, current hinge measurements and required opening angle before ordering. For product help, contact Berta Store with clear photos and measurements.
