Default 45 degrees hinges

Hi all

I have 2 doors left over from a project, with 35 mm (~1,5") holes for
"eurohinges", center placed 24 mm from the edge (almost 1 inch) for a
kitchen cupboard.
I am planning on using them for a 45 degree cupboard, for a corner - 5-
sided. I want the idea of a classic corner cupboard with modern
styling.

My problem is the hinge
Do anyone have information on hinges for this? I found them in a local
shop here, but lack drawings/ideas.
According to the catalog, 2 sides have to be cut to 45 degrees in the
"ends", the the door goes above.

I'm not certain I understand the shape of your corner cabinet. If it
is 5 sided and the most forward side panels are parallel to each other
then 120 degree euro hinges should articulate the same way as if it
were an ordinary 3 sided square cabinet.

If the most forward side panels are at 90 degrees to each other you
may be able to get 45 degree wedges to fit behind the hinges. You can
probably find them in the catalogs or web sites of the hinge
manufacturer. Look for Blum, Hettich, Grass, Salice,or Hafele.
