Well hello All! Im a diesel mechanic by trade and usually work with metal, i wanted to try my hand at woodworking so i decided to build a hutch for my toolbox at work, i have the hutch made, and put off the hinge/ how to open the door, I'm 6'2" and built the hutch so i would have enough room so i wouldnt hit my head, as of right now i have the door fold up and sit flat on the top, i dont really like it, id like to try pivot door slides but dont know much about them any input or opinions would be greatly appreciated Thanks, Bill M

So the hutch door would be fitted inside the cabinet?

The mechanism is proven, in TV applications.
If it's exposed to wood dust, it might need
occasional cleaning.

Pictures will help.

Do you have some to show?
