Put it in the right place

• If you are fitting a new door, you will need to determine the exact position of the Hidden Door Hinges on the door frame. Most doors will need at least 2, usually, only heavier doors will use 3. If you have a third, you can fit it directly in the middle of the other 2 Hidden Door Hinges.

Trace the hinge outline

• Place the Hidden Door Hinges onto the door and door frame and carefully trace the outline with a woodworking pencil. The depth of the concealed hinge into the door frame should be equal to the thickness. Double-check to ensure that the hinge outlines are in line with each other on the door and frame before proceeding to the next step. Then use a hobby knife to carve out the contour lines to facilitate the grooving.

Grooving

• The term "grooving" is a technical term that refers to digging out the shape of a Hidden Door Hinges in the wood of the door frame so that it can be embedded in the door frame, improving its strength and aesthetics. To cut the grooves you will need a very sharp chisel and a hammer. While carefully adjusting the angle of the chisel, gently tap it into the door frame from the side to chisel out a thin layer of wood shavings. Be sure not to dig too deep, otherwise, the Hidden Door Hinges will tend to come loose over time. Dig only the part circled by the outline, the depth is determined by the mark.

Drill out the positioning holes

• Using a drill or screwdriver, drill very small locating holes in the door frame at the marked screw locations. Gently hammer the screws in first to make sure they do not come out accidentally. A screw sleeve can be used to ensure that the screws are drilled vertically into the wood.

Separate installation

• Position the Hidden Door Hinges in the positions to be fitted and then fix them to the door frame and the door separately using a drill or screwdriver. Finally, let the blades on the door and the ones on the door frame bite together. Insert the hinge pins in and check to make sure the door opens and closes properly. This completes the installation of the Hidden Door Hinges.

• The above is about how to install Hidden Door Hinges, I believe you understand it! Hidden Door Hinges are an important accessory for doors, so before installing them, make sure you buy the right ones first and check carefully that they match the door frame and the door fan.
