I have 1 door that covers 2 small cabinets.
the problem is 1 cabinet on the bottem is 5 mm shorter.(the top cabinet side is 5 mm to right)
how do i hang a blum euro hinge?
do i just drill the hinge hole 5 mm over?

I've read your post several times and don't understand what you're asking. You have two cabinets side by side that are covered by one door? Maybe a picture would help.

the two boxs sit on top of each other. to make 1 cabinet
top caninet is 5mm wider
1door covers both boxs
can i just drill my hole 5 mm over on my door?

I think the best way would be to line up the sides of the cabinets that the hinges will be on then make the door wide enough to cover the widest cabinet. The hole to door edge dimension is pretty well fixed. Try a mockup and see what happens.

so after talking with a friend/past coworker (all most wood god)
he came up with a great ideal .......just router a square were the hinge will go
humm thats just way too easy the door is a full overlay so it will cover the spot were im going to router
so tomorrow im going to give that a try
