I was hoping to finish this closet over the Thanksgiving weekend, but as you can see, I did not get it done. Part is the inset doors and the mortised hinges, this all takes a lot of work to get it to fit just right. The Hinges were a little sloppy, which does not bother too much on taller doors, but on the upper doors, where the height is less than 24” it was a pain to get it to fit right.
On this cabinet I did not make the doors my self, I bought them from http://decore.com/. The hinges I bought at http://www.kennedyhardware.com/lift-off-hinge-with-finial.html
