     Hi John ,

                  On a tri- view medicine cabinet one way is to use overlay doors with     1 and a  1/2" stiles between them . With a standard Euro hinge and a 5/8" overlay , it will leave about a 1/4" between the doors . I place the mirrors flush to the edge of the doors they , open with adequate clearance and work fine .

                   good  luck          dusty

   Thanks for your help.  I've noticed online that some cabinets are built just the way you mentioned.  I'm going top make a mock up this weekend and see how it turns out.

    

   Thanks again.

   I have built two such cabinets. I don't know what you mean when you write "frame is to wrap around the outside edges." My doors with mirrors overlaid a face frame. The hinges are knife-type which I cannot find in my WW Supply catalog. They are similar to their part no. 100-400 except that the fixed portion attaches to the face of the frame. I suspect that you can find them at Ace Hdw or Lowe's, etc. They have slotted holes for mounting which allow alignment. Once aligned, a screw thru a round hole fixes the hinges.

   The Frame that wraps around the ouside edges is like a cabinet shaker style door frame.  We want the hinges to be non visiable.  Is that possible with knife style hinges?  I can get them from Lee Valley if taht's the case.

    

   Thanks for your input.
