HELP! with self-closing cabinet hinges...doors are staying open,not closed!
Maybe someone has had this problem before...I'm trying to replace some
20 year old hinges on my bathroom cabinets. The new hinges are standard self-closing hinges from Lowes. 3 screws into the door, 2 into the frame, and the holes line up fine. The problem is that the hinges hold the doors slightly open instead of closed. There is anywhere from a 1/8" to 1/2" gap. A previous owner replaced the hinges on the kitchen cabinets, and some of them have the same problem! I've looked at it, but can't figure out what to do to fix it. Something weird is going on - I can't be the only person to have this problem. Please HELP! Thanks! |
