Door Size for Blum 155 No Protrusion? - David Stone - 12-29-2023

So, if my door opening is 24” x 22”, I guess I di t want my door to be that exact size? Do I take 1/16” off each side? More? What factors matter?

Build it to that size and hand plane it down it fit with even gap all around.

Inset doors? Yes.

We always allowed 1/8" reveal all around so 1/4" smaller than opening. Obviously, it is up to the OP as to how large/small of a gap. This is for an inset door.

I have a 2016 catalog from woodworkershardware.com   Data should still be good.  The "155" is shown with overlay doors only.  People there are great to worked with, when I called with lots of questions, returns, instructions etc..
