   If your cabinet will have sides and dividers, just no face frame, then the European style cup hinges, more typically used for kitchen cabinets, will work, but you will need three or four hinges per door. If you can only attach to a top and bottom rail then you will need knife hinges or a pivot hinge. Given the size of the door you may not be able to find a knife or pivot hinge large enough, they are primarily sized for small cabinets. A good source for researching hinges in a wide array of styles is the Lee Valley catalog.

   Hope this helps, John White

   Brusso Hardware manufactures some very large pivot hinges of the type that John mentioned. The L-19 (brass) or L-19S (stainless steel) models should be plenty large enough for your application, but try not to faint when you see the prices. Depending on the exact configuration of the wardrobe and how much room you have for the door to swing, the straight hinges in the same size (ST-80 and ST-80S) might work, and they're quite a bit less expensive.

   The Brusso products are universally regarded as being of the highest quality.
