I am painting the kitchen cabinets in my house that was built in
1963. The person that built it did everything themselves so nothing
is standard size. The main problem I have with the cabinet doors is
that some of the don't hang straight. I went to Home Depot to take a
look at replacement hinges and can't find anything like I had before.
Everything that was there required me to drill a huge hole in the
backside of my cabinet doors, which is something I don't feel
comfortable doing myself. What are my options?

My cabinets are like the image below where the vertial peice is the
cabinet and the horizontal peice is the door. The door completely
overlaps the side of the cabinet and the edge of the door is flush
with the outside of the cabinet wall.

Can I take my doors somewhere and get the holes drilled? I would
think if I went into a nice cabinet place they would tell me to take a
hike since they aren't going to make any money on drilling some holes
into someones existing doors? Would a store like Home Depot do it?

Please help. I am going to be selling my house and I really don't
want the kitchen cabinet doors that I just spent hours repainting to
be hanging crooked.

Thanks.

I would expect a place like Home Depot to have a pretty limited
selection of hinges. Try www.rockler.com, for one.
