There you go.

Has anyone tried the compression hinges and if so, how did they work? Also can anyone point me towards the gas struts mentioned? Having trouble finding them for glass doors. Thanks.

If you have Facebook there is a group called "3120/21rl Montana Owners Group" Almost anything you can think of people have done. Other models use the same type of hardware. There are several posts on there about adding struts to that cabinet glass door. Ours has compression hinges and stays up just fine. Here's a link to the struts that some people have added. There are others available too but this one has a lighter rating so it's not as stiff.

Thanks for the info. I was really hoping to find some solution that did not require drilling into the glass. From what I can tell the struts you showed would require drilling to make them work. Might not be a big deal but would prefer to go with no drill option. Any thoughts on that? Thank you all. This is a great and very helpful group.

Oh yeah forgot to mention that I banished myself from Facebook after the last election. Just made me crazy so that is not an option for me. Thanks.
