closing the gap between doors on a cupbaord?

Question

cheap flat pack b n q cupboard,inch gap between doors in the center if i alter the little srew the door moves away from frame

Answer 1

Depends on the type of hinges, but normally, prise out the cover plate and adjust the screw furthest from the front until the gap closes up, tighten the central screw and replace the cover plate.

Answer 2

The hinges on most cupboard doors are adjustable to address the gap issue. Loosen (you need not remove) the screws, and slide the hinge as necessary to close the gap. You usually have about 1/4 inch on each side of adjustment room. You just need a screw driver and a few minutes.

Answer 3

If there are spring loaded hinges, then the adjustment screws are there to help you.
