    Looking for face frame cup hinge with 85-90 degree opening

    Wall cabinet door (105 degree) bangs into refrigerator - any way to restrict the hinge? Or ideas on replacement? Thanks,

    You could switch from a face-frame hinge to a conventional cup hinge, and add an angle restrictor clip. For instance, Blum sells 107 degree hinges, and a 86 degree angle restriction clip for them.

    To mount the conventional hinge, you can do any of several things. You can glue in wood blocking behind the face frame, so there's material for the hinge to screw to. Or Blum has metal adapters to put conventional hinges on a face frame.

    Or, simpler, you could just put a chain on the door to restrict how far it opens.
