The IKEA hinges are one of the greatest parts of IKEA cabinets,
IMO. They are Blum hinges, proprietary to IKEA, but Blum
nonetheless. The doors are as easy to remove as they are to
install -- we've done so several times for one reason or another.
Door hinges come in 2 packs or 3 packs depending on your door
size. This is a 39" wall cabinet and it has 2 hinges.
Here goes: On the inside of the door, you'll see the holes for the
cup of the hinges (Photo #1). On the inside of the wall cabinet,
you'll attach the cabinet wall attachment point by aligning it
with the correct holes (holes #2 and #3 on a 2 hinge door) and
screwing the screws into the holes (Photo #2). Place the hinge
cup into the hinge cup hole on the door, aligning the posts with
the small holes on the sides (Photo #3). Press the hinge into the
hole (Photo #4). Flipping the hinge "door" down expands the hinge
into the hole, securing it in place (Photo #5). When both hinges
and attachment points are in place, align the bar on the hinge
with the hooks on the cabinet wall piece (Photo #6), and snap it
closed (Photo #7). That's it!
