What happens here

Use a drill and marking tool to prepare the cabinet doors for Blum 110-degree soft-closing hinges. Screw the hinges into place on the doors. Install the drawer slides into the cabinet base. Then, install the doors and drawers onto the cabinet. The hinges initially chosen were for frameless cabinets, so to adapt them, small spacer blocks were attached behind the hinges on the cabinet itself, effectively making them function with the face-frame design.

Goal: Fit doors and drawers with hardware

for hardware to be a bit fancy I went with these Blum 110 degree soft closing hinges now this particular style I bought they were the wrong style as they're meant for frameless style cabinets but to fix that problem instead of returning them all I did is I attached a little spacer block behind the hinge on the cabinet itself and it acts as a frameless cabinet now my mistake but problem got solved this way
