One More Look Cabinet Front: Measuring and Fitting Guide

Quick answer

To fit a replacement One More Look cabinet front, first measure your existing door to confirm the size, then remove the old front and attach the new one using the original hardware. Work on a soft surface and check alignment before tightening screws.

Step-by-step fitting guide

1. Measure the existing door: Use a tape measure to record the height, width, and thickness of your current cabinet front. Also note the distance between hinge mounting holes. Compare these measurements to the specifications of the replacement front. Double-check measurements; a few millimeters can make the difference between a snug fit and a loose one.
2. Remove the old front: Open the cabinet door and unscrew the hinges from the door using a screwdriver. Support the door as you remove the last screw to prevent it from dropping. Set the screws aside in a safe place. Keep the original screws; they are often specific to the hinge type and may not be included with the new front.
3. Prepare the new front: Place the new cabinet front face-down on a soft, clean surface to avoid scratching. If your new front does not have pre-drilled hinge holes, use the old door as a template to mark the hole positions. If pre-drilled holes are present, verify they align with your hinges before attaching.
4. Attach the hinges: Screw the hinges onto the new front using the original screws. Tighten them snugly but not fully, so you can make small adjustments later. Over-tightening can strip the screw holes; tighten until resistance is felt, then stop.
5. Mount the door: With help if needed, align the hinges with the cabinet body and screw them into place. Close the door gently and check that it sits flush and opens smoothly. If the door rubs or gaps, loosen the hinge screws slightly, adjust the door position, and re-tighten.
6. Final check and adjustment: Open and close the door several times to ensure it operates without obstruction. Adjust hinges if necessary for alignment. Wipe the surface clean. A properly aligned door should close with a soft click and stay closed without force.
