LS door hinges

Post by Rick Palechuk »

Is there a known issue with hinges not showing up on the buy list for lazy susan doors?

Todd is right, this was not known about but it is now listed with the programmers to be taken care of. If you need to put the hardware holes in you will have to take the part to the part editor.

Rick,
You will have to manually add a a set of hinges to corner cabs if you want them to show up in cut list for that cabinet.

Todd & Justin,
You are aware that on corner cabinets you cant add hinges and therefore get the hinge plate and or door boring done, other than manual...This is a huge PIA and I for one would would like to see it addressed sonner than later.
THANKS,

If you load a standard corner cabinet with left and right hinged doors, the hardware hole pattern will show up on the doors as well as in the buy list. We know it does not for the lazy susan but they are working on that.

Rick and Michael
After speaking with the programmers the reason the hinges do not show up in the buy list is because lazy Susan doors do not get hinges. So there is no issue with the lazy Susan doors. I am sorry for the confusion.

There are hinges on a corner suzan, If there talking about the revolving doors that go in to the cabinet, I doubt if you will find one in ten shops who use that detail. It is a callback and potential finger cruncher for the little ones. Se the attached lazy suzan cabinet. Please show this to the programmers.

Thanks for the input guys.I think the industry has pretty much given up on the finger crusher design. (Thank goodness).
We use 170s and a piano hinge for our doors. Maybe in the future we can see the ability to add the center hinging in the door editor.

Rick,

If you are just trying to get hinges to show up on the buy list, add them as items for your cabinet using Define Defaults/Add Items. This way when you pick a pie cut corner cabinet all hinges and mounting plates will be with the cabinet. You can add whatever door you want. It won't machine the mounting holes for you though.
