How To Adjust Blum Hinges to Align Cabinet Doors

The door alignment process with Blum self-closing, inserta hinges involves three-axis adjustments to achieve a professional-looking finish. Here's how it works:

1. Vertical Adjustment:

   • Utilizes the elongated slots in the Mounting Plate for vertical movement.
   • Loosen the two screws attaching the Mounting Plate to the face frame.
   • Allows for a vertical shift of up to 5/32-inch or 4mm, perfect for aligning doors along the bottom and correcting minor drilling inaccuracies.

2. In-and-Out Adjustment:

   • Managed by the screw farthest from the cabinet door on the hinge body.
   • Adjust the distance between the door and the face frame.
   • Offers a range of 3/16 inches or 5mm, compensating for sound-reducing rubber bumpers' thickness.

3. Left-Right Adjustment:

   • The screw closest to the cabinet door on the hinge controls this adjustment.
   • Allows the tops and bottoms of the doors to move independently to the left or right.
   • Provides a range of 3/32 inches or 2mm, ensuring precise gaps between double doors.
