Hidden hinges
So>>It took me a full 30 hrs to install this first hidden hinge.(first ones ever attempted) To say that they almost kicked my butt is an understatement
Started with the rear doors, which are suicide.
I tell you......it took me a full day of measuring and staring at that pillar to take a zip wheel to it.

I clamped the hinge up to the pillar and marked the placement.

Then I had to figure out where the pockets went in the doors. I set the doors in the opening and marked them out before doing any cutting. I used 2.5" channel to form the pockets for the hinge arm.

After the hinge was installed, I had to brace it on the back side. I used .5" square tube.

Everything done and the door hung. Got to get after the rest now
