Blum hinge basics?

Ok im confused by blums concealed hinges literature.

What are the key things im looking for for a face frame hinge.

The more i read through the literature the more im confused.

Just have a basic face frame build and i normally do flush panel doors but this is only the second time i ever worked with blums concealed hinges.

Im sure its simple but i thinking im making it hard work :blink:

Easiest are the Blum compacts. The main question you got to ask is how much of the faceframe do you want covered (overlay). I believe the choices are from 3/8" to 1 9/16.

You will of course need to drill a 35mm hole for the hinges to sit in at the back of the door.
