I have to make a few cabinet doors to match what is already there. These doors are 3/4" thick and have a rabbet on three edges. On the butt, top & bottom. The rabbet is 1/4" deep & 1/2" wide. Do they make a Blum hinge that will work. The door insets into the face frame by 1/4"...I've either done inset of overlay but never had to do this before...will Blum hinges work for this application or should I be looking for something else?

381778Rockler sells a Salice brand hinge that worked for 3/8” rabbited doors :

They’re no Blum brand hinge, and I’ve never used them, but they are available.

$29.99 for a set of hinge arms and baseplates?!?

The Blum 155* (https://www.wwhardware.com/media/installation/b071t76-installation.pdf) hinge (71T7600N) can be used on a lipped door.
