On my first cabinet (a three-sided cocktail), I hinged the panels on the long side ... I'll never do it again.
Cheers.

This may be common knowledge, but I thought I'd throw in a recommendation for one (or two) of those spring loaded lid support devices which keeps your CP from slamming down. This way you don't have to have the CP completely vertical to stay in place. I saw this on a toy chest I recently bought for the kid (to prevent it from slamming on heads/fingers) and couldn't believe I didn't have one in my hinged CP.

...a pretty damn nifty idea there Ahofle...

You could also put in a little hood support rod.
