Blum's Compact 33 can be mounted directly to the front face of the face frame. http://wwhardware.com/media/products/apcharts/compact33.pdf In that configuration, they don't care how thick the face frame is. Unlike regular cup hinges, the Compact 33 adjusts left-right and up-down, but not in-out. Depending on your design, that might or might not be an issue. To get three-way adjustment, you may have to add blocking to the back of the face frame so you can use regular cup hinges.
