Review on DecoBasics Variable Overlay Cabinet Hinges by Josh Allred

Here is the most comprehensive review I can muster given the multitude of other reviews: Result and Background: I replaced 41 old gold kitchen cabinet hinges with these matte black hinges using a small drill bit. Walnut cabinets in a 1959 home, although we are not the first owners of the home and cannot verify the age of the cabinets. Experience: These hinges were worth my money (50 hinges for $36 or Home Depot 50 for $77.50). The screw holes of the previous cabinet frame and door matched perfectly, almost eliminating the need for new pilot holes (<- This was my personal biggest benefit. Home Depot hinges for my bathroom required new pilot holes on all my cabinet doors.) . Now I'm saying that, as it turns out, the hinge part of these hinges will eventually push the door a little further. For example, if there was a central vertical board between cabinet doors or a single door, this gave enough leeway to not be a problem. When a set of doors butt together there is now an overlap, so you now have to trick a set of doors (only pilot holes required on one side, but our drill bit and included frame screws got it). in order). {SEE PHOTOS} - Speaking of screws, based on other reviews, I didn't tempt fate and used the small door screws provided. Since they are on the inside and don't have to fit, I just used my old ones. Other overview photos only appear to break the screws on the door, which are the smaller screws that come with the hinge kits. Conclusion: As a replacement for existing devices, I would definitely buy them again for the price and size. If I were to start over with no prior bolt holes in the chassis I would always drill pilot holes for each hole and yes I would try anyway as the frame bolts are visible and stronger.
