I designed these screw adapters and drill guides after I (mistakenly) brought Hjalpa hinges for method cabinets and doors. Unfortunately, Hjalpa and Metod do not combine.

Tools:

  • Drill

    • 3-3.5mm drill bit

    • Hammer (optional)

    • Pencil

    • Screwdriver for normal hinge assembly

Instructions:

  • Place the screw adapter in the small holes of the doors (2 per hinge). 

  • Place the Drill guide on the edge of the inside of the cabinets

    • Slide to the top, mark and drill the holes (3mm/3.5mm Diameter x 12mm deep).

    • Slide to the bottom, mark and drill the holes (3mm/3.5mm Diameter x 12mm deep).

    • For door with more than 2 hinges:

      • Use the Center Finding Disk to measure the distance from the middle hinge center to the bottom of the door.

      • Add 1 mm.

      • Mark this distance on the inside edge of the cabinet. Measure from the underside of the bottom panel.

      • Alight with the diamond hole in the drill guide and mark the holes. 

      • Drill as before.

  • Mount the doors
