Thanks Ed,
A kitchen cabinet at our croft will have its hinge mortices shimmed, and replaced along your model. Apart from better closing doors, it will save me from further “witty comments”.
With an experience from lift-off hinges for front and internal doors, where the leaves are flat against each other when the hinge (door is closed), butt hinges for lids and cabinet doors have been a challenge not consistently overcome. In particular I’ve learnt that putting the leaves of an inexpensive “brass” butt hinge in a vice to bring the leaves flush to each other, will result in the leaves falling off the hinge – revealing surfaces of a non-declared alloy. Ever since, Brusso prices appear more reasonable to me.
Your bathroom cabinet looks really nice!!
