Do these work on cabinet doors with visible hinges? I have overlay partial wrap self-closing hinges

My kitchen cabinets have visable self-closing hinges and the dampers work well. The dampers are mounted on the cabinet frame, on the hinge side of the door. I mounted mine on the frame vertically mid-way between two (of three) hinges.

Yes, provided there is a place where they can be mounted in the cabinet so as to contact the door within an inch to two of the hinge axis...hard to describe in text! The cylinder is mounted on the frame of the door. As the door closes, the plunger, which protrudes from the cylinder, comes into contact with the door itself and cushions the close. The door must have some kind of at least moderate closing force from a spring to work.Mine have been in use fora number of cabinet doors for several years and are easy to install and work fine.

Hi Brenda. These Dampers rely on hinges that have spring tension on them that help pull the door closed. Once the door is near it's "at rest" (or closed) position, these dampers let the door close softly, rather than making a loud bang. So, if your cabinet door hinges are the type that have spring tension as I described, even being the visible kind, they should work fine. If you have the type of hinges that do not help pull the door toward the closed position, then they will not. Hope that helps you!

This on a non overlay hinge. It is for doors that are inside the cabinet frame.

I have mine on a steel exterior door. I did use two (of the three hinges) to provide more closing force. Works great!

After a full year of operation the hinges are working fine. Doing a double installation on an EXTERIOR mount is possible. There will be a slight space between cabinets (1/4") If you do an interior mount you will need to place a vertical 1 by 4" board at the middle point so you have an attaching point for the mounting screws. This will spread your cabinets by 3/4" I mounted mine exterior, by myself and wished for an extra set of hands to help

These do not cause any rubbing. If you have a issue with the fit of the adapter, it could be that you need to use the provide spacer. On most of my cabinets I had to use the provided spacer. If you go to You Tube and search 'Blumotion Hinge Adapter' there is a video by a guy name Russ R. that shows how easy installation is--I recommend watching the video. These adapters are great, if your cabinets are real hardwood you will need a screw drive with some power or use a manual screw driver and elbow grease.

No, they only work with the compact hinge with blumotion. The clips fall out of the other hinges.

Yes, we have the same hinges on our cabinets. There are a couple of ways to install the dampers. Mine are installed about an 1 1/2 from the hinge. Hope this helps!

I'm unsure. My doors have only two hinges. They can be installed on either the top or bottom hinge for sure.

These will open as wide as a regular door hinge. They may not be what you think, though. Their benefit is in how they pull a door out of the way of the opening.

Thanks for your question. It design and should work on 3/4 thick cabinet door.

Yes. They fit snugly and you have to give them a bit of a push in. They will only fit one way so twist it around if it doesn't fit. There are two side "hinges" that need to line up with indents. Quality is not bad. There are six so it one breaks there are several more. I have been using just two and they are holding up fine.

I used them with sheer door panels and they were fine as far as thickness goes. The magnets were not strong enough to allow you to pull the sheers taut. If you just place them so they are not under too much tension, they are fine.

Yes they are as they appear in the picture. I used these to replace existing hinges with no problems.

I am sorry I do not know I used them for hidden doors. Large doors built in to the wall that you can not tell a door is there.

Sorry can't help. I returned these because they do not fix a broken hinge. They help prevent breaking only.

I hope I can answer this with just words. Assuming you are replacing your existing hinges that looks identical to the one here. I am not a pro so I can't give you fancy terms The overlay is the length of how much the door itself overlays/overlaps (covers) the front edge part (wood before the cabinet opening) of the cabinet on the hinge side only I think there are a couple of methods you can measure this 1. Close the cabinet door or place it over the cabinet to display how it should look like with a closed door. 2. On the hinge side of the door/cabinet, mark where the edge of the cabinet door is on your cabinet itself 3. The distance on where you mark where the edge of the door on the hinge side to the front edge is the overlay Lengthy, but hope it helps, I had to do tons of web searches prior to figure it out. If all else fails, do a quick search in youtube for cabinet door overlay. That is where I saw a video or 2 on how to measure it. Good Luck

As long as the thickness of your door does not exceed the measurements, it should work. However, if your door thickness is less than the measurements of the door, you'll have to add some type of spacers. I hope this helps.
