I get confused when they break apart the hinges from plates and hinge. Im on wwhardware.com I think I need this Blum 71T5550 I want a 3/4 overlay face frame hinge. Some say full overlay, is that 3/4 or 1 1/4? WWhardware says 120' Clip Top Hinges but doesnt say what the overlay is, just a confusing chart in there catalog.

Its the same way on http://www.ahturf.com/ I know this is the cheaper route than going to a woodcraft etc.

Please help.

Full overlay is 3/4" minus 2-3mm because none of the hinges do you want all the way flush with cab side. The full overlays can be adjusted out that far id wanted.

Craig for face frame overlay use the overlay application chart. The numbers in the white area in the middle of the chart are the desired amount of overlay in millimeters. The gray column to the left is the plate height you need for the overlay you choose. The number in gray at the top of the column is the distance the 35mm hole needs to be spaced from the edge of the door.

The plate height is just the thickness of the mounting plate.

Since this is for a face frame you need to use FF mounting plate.

The maximum amount of overlay for that hinge is 17mm - about .67"

BTW Great deal on the drawer slides, thanks.
