[Shop-talk] Breakaway cabinet hinges?

[Mike Rambour]

  What about sliding doors ?  not sure how to explain but like closet 
doors on a track, no hinges to break that way.  Of course it does mean 
that the doors wont line up with the front as one door will be on the 
inside track but that should work.

We use 35mm European hinges. Anyone know of compatible hinges that would allow the doors to just pop off? The face frames are getting where they will need to be replaced. I mentioned just removing the doors but she said "That's a man's way of dealing with it......NO". Yes dear.
