I'm installing Blum, full inset clip-on hinges. I've figured out how to
adjust the hinges so the doors hang square in the opening, (height, width)
with same reveal all the way around the doors. I've also adjusted so the
hinged side is flush with the cabinet sides. Three screws, three
dimensions
adjustments, nice and simple.

The problem, however, is that when the doors close, they swing in too far
(i.e., past perpendicular to the sides). Is there a way to adjust how far
the door swings, or do I need to install a catch? It seem like the hinges
should stop swinging at 90 degrees without the use of a stop.

Thanks in advance for the help.


Blum hinges are designed to fit the door on the outside of the carcass, it
sounds like you've used them to fit inside in some way and the spring would
naturally take them beyond perpendicular if there was nothing to stop it, so
the carcass should be the stop, often little plastic pads are added to
cushion ,,,,, but it sounds like you have no stop.
