I am building a corner cabinet and need to know what kind of hinges I will need for the doors. The doors will lay on top of the cabinet (not inset). I will try to post a picture of the cabinet so far.339145
You can seen the sides of the cabinet to attach the doors are fairly narrow. Any ideas? Thanks!

You might use a half-wrap hinge. These make the door overlay the casework by 1/4" or 3/8", depending on which you choose. The leaf attached to the case is bent so the screws go sideways, not straight into the case. I think you have more meat in that direction. The hinge knuckles are visible with the door closed. Here's an example with a 1/4" overlay. It also happens to be self-closing, which you might find useful. http://www.wwhardware.com/amerock-half-wrap-1-4-overlay-self-closing-hinges-a07566
