Is there a special type of hinge for corner cabinet doors that allow the two pieces to fold up for better access? The female half of my customers isn't happy with the male half's decision to just make a solid 'L' shaped door. :mad:

Of course, she didn't say anything for the week the damn doors were up waiting for the painter. Then one of her friends, who doesn't even HAVE a carousel cabinet said she'd seen 'em with foldy doors.

Can I just use a piano hinge? :confused:

kirk,

I've seen piano hinges used in this application, however they do make the euro hinges for this. Check rockler or any other hardware place, I'm sure you will find them there.

KC, I think Woodworkers Supply has the hinges you are looking for. I've seen them in their catalog. Either look on line Wooworkers Supply (http://woodworker.com/cgi-bin/HOME.exe ) or give them a call 800 645 9292.
