Hey folks,
I'm currently designing a full-length wall mirror with a storage space in the wall behind the mirror, similar to a medicine cabinet. The only hitch is I want to disguise the fact that it opens up, so I need to find some hinges that won't be visible when the door/mirror is closed. I've looked at invisible barrel hinges, and they'll probably work, but I figured I'd see if this community had suggestions for other options.
The requirements I have for these include:
1) no indication that the hinge exists when the cabinet door is closed
2) must support 15-20 lbs (I'm guessing… it'll be a 15" x 60" piece of mirror glass with a frame)
3) must allow at least 90 degrees opening in this config.
Any thoughts, suggestions welcomed.
