Frequently Asked Questions about Kitchen cupboard hinge replacement in Ottery St Mary
Why have my hinges stopped working?
Kitchen hinges work hard - constant opening and closing, heat and steam. Eventually the mechanism wears, soft-close fails, and doors start sagging. Replacement is straightforward.
Can I upgrade to soft-close?
Yes - if your current hinges aren't soft-close, you can upgrade. Most concealed hinges use standard mounting. I'll check compatibility with your doors.
How many hinges per door?
Standard doors have two hinges. Tall larder doors or heavy doors may have three. I'll match what's there or advise if more are needed.
Do I need to buy the hinges?
You can, or I can source them. Key info needed: mounting type (clip-on or screw), overlay or inset, and whether you want soft-close.
