Previous customer complained that door was not attached/no markings to show placement for hinges. Has this been changed for installation ease?

Prior to our purchase it was made evident that the door would not be attached. However markings were made and it was very easy to put together.

Hi, They are showing the door open on the photograph. It's a weird photo and in no way representative of the way the unit looks in real life. I have one of these and an extremely happy so far. We have had it since March. Good luck!

The one difference i have noticed with these, as opposed to the older ones, is that they (manufacture) inverted the "3" holes that screw to the door itself.When i replaced my older ones i had to drill new holes for the doors only. The total length of hinge is 2 3/4. (two hole length) the width is 1 1/4 (the three hole width). I measured what attaches to the cabinet and attaches to the door. Hope that helps.

The hinges need to be adjusted. Loosen the adjustment on them and see if the doors close all the way that way. If they do, then adjust accordingly. If they don't they weren't installed correctly or you bought the wrong ones.

I've been using mine since 10/2010, and have had no problems with the hinges. No rust, no squeaks, no nothing. Re: side-by-side install, I just checked, and as you open the larger right side door and it swings outward, its mirror extends maybe 0.25 inches beyond the side of the cabinet, i.e. looks like the answer is no, unless you leave a small gap.

Are you asking how to install them without the door closing while you're doing the install? If so, we installed to the door then held it up like it would be when it was shut and screwed the hinge to the cabinet frame. If you're asking if the self-closing is optional, no its not. Like Kemosabe said, its a wonderful feature, but it's not optional, so you'll need to find different hinges if you don't want that feature.

Not showing up meaning you can't find it? If so it is on a small tag/sticker either in the door frame, or the inside cavity, or on the back. If your questions is, your model# is not showing up for this plate send me you model# and I will look the correct plate up for you.

You don't have to remove the door, however, there may be some prep work for installing the hinge shield section. In my doors, I didn't use the hinge shield because in my personal experience, I've never seen a door kicked in at the hinges. Not saying it couldn't happen, but I've never seen it.

I needed one left and one right hand, so I just flipped door hinges. This was for 2 back to back bathrooms so the cabinets were not next to each other, because there is a slight difference in the look. almost a year ago so i dont remember if the came left or right hinge.

Yes, and no. Yes, it does, but I discovered that depending on the cabinet, every hinge is different. So, it's OK if you are using for first-time installation. I bought it as a replacement, and it did not work out. Good luck.

Unless they've updated the model (we bought this part number in 2011), the hinges are metal mounted in plastic. Our plastic is cracking, and I have to buy a new door for ~$100.

I don't know, I haven't had mine for more than a year and the hinge that holds up the door has broken off.

I've had to replace the hinges a few times. Each time I just called munchkin's customer service department and the shipped me out new ones free of charge.

No. They kind of misrepresent the product. It's just the upper hinges for both doors. I took a gamble on this and came out very disappointed.

I don't know, but you could order one of these and take it to a store selling hinges - I bet you could find a match. My hinges are inside hinges, so I didn't need to worry about it. Good luck

My door did not come attatched and i'm trying to remember what I did because I had the same problem. I'm pretty sure there was a small black piece That came witht the fridge that use to close that gap. I put mine together a while ago I can barely rememebr. Sorry. But look for a washer looking piece (i think)

i have not this problem, the door instructions were very confusing and actually had to redo what we thought was right. Maybe look into how it was assembled.
