Building a pantry. The 75" tall door will weigh around 22#. How many hinges do I need? Amerock 30° Reverse Bevel Variable Overlay Face Frame Mount Self Closing Cabinet Hinge - PAIR

Not sure what the end design on the door will be, but using weight of a 1/2" sheet of plywood, I came up with this weight for the door if it were just solid plywood. Size is about 75"h x 32"w. Love your site!!

The Amerock 30° Reverse Bevel Variable Overlay Face Frame Mount Self Closing Cabinet Hinges are designed specifically for 3/4" material, but can work with 1/2" material. However, this will result in a more pronounced barrel of the hinge. These hinges are not ideal for your door size, but given your door's light weight, using five or six hinges could suffice. It's important to note that the top hinge is likely to fail first.
