I would like my Kitchen-Craft cabinets to open 180 degrees?

I currently have Kitchen-Craft cabinets with European style hinges in my kitchen. All of the cabinet doors open 90 degrees (which I believe is "standard" for European style hinges). I would like one of my cabinets to open 180 degrees. There is nothing next to it so it would not hit anything... is there an appropriate hinge to replace what I have?

1. Hinges come in a variety of degreed openings. The cabinet manufacturer chooses the one you already have for a reason. But that reason dont always fit the homeowners lifestyle. Most cabinet dealers buy their cabinet hardware from Louis and Company. Almost every major city has one. They carry what you are looking for. Dont bother with the big box stores as they will not carry anything special. Cabinet hinges have 2 important things to look for. The degrees it opens and the setback. If you do not know the set back then bring in an old one for the guy to figure out for you. Your set back will remain the same but you want a wider degree opening. Stick with the brand hinges you already have, if you can not then go Blum as it is known to be the best.
