Re: Toronto Parts AVSIKT hinges
Hi, If you are willing to do a little work, you can buy them at Home Depot or Rona.
The hinges are the same degree of opening and same size 'cup hole' (the big hole that goes in the door).
The difference between IKEA hardware and regular Blum hardware is the position of the screw holes on the hinge or on the mounting plate (the part that goes in the cabinet). IKEA has proprietary hardware, mfg only for them by Blum.
But, if you are comfortable making new holes, it will certainly work fine.
On another post someone mentioned "Ferrari" hinges. You need to use Blum. The specifications for different mfg's of European hinges are different, off by a millimetre here or there. Making it difficult to make them work in holes they weren't made for. The cup hole may all be 35mm, but the drilling depth and the distance from the edge of the doors are different. It is a headache that you don't need. Ferrari, Mepla, Hettich, Salice..all different
And IKEA certainly does sell their hinges separately, they just don't advertise it, and they are a lot more money than other Blum hinges because they come in a cute bag with an instruction sheet and screws.
When I bought my kitchen cabinets from IKEA, on the order form there was a part number for the bag of hinges to be ordered because every part is inventoried separately.
Download the Kitchen planner and put a door and cabinet on the 'shopping list' and see what pops out. At least 5 years ago it did.
Hinges break. There is no reason why IKEA shouldn't be able to supply you with 'replacements', that you purchase.
Good Luck!
