kitchen cart hinge trouble
i have scoured the internet and i think this board is my last hope. i ordered a kitchen cart from walmart and put the cart together with little trouble. i'm not very technical so i was quite proud of myself! when it came to the door hinges, i thought those would be a piece of cake...boy, was i wrong! they gave me such a headache and the diagram on the instructions was not helping. they are take off hinges (or sometimes called take apart hinges) that have one side as a receptacle, and the other side as a peg that slides into the receptacle. i somehow managed to get the hinges mixed around and i don't know how they are supposed to fit. they are also configured in a way where they have bends in the two halves of the hinges. from what i've researched, i believe they are referred to as 270 degree hinges. can anyone help me figure out the correct way they are supposed to be attached so i know for future reference? i would really appreciate the help! we did have to purchase cheap utility hinges as a temporary fix. those are on the doors now but the cabinet doors won't fully open which could be a problem in the future. thank you in advance to anyone that can help!
