Hi and welcome.

Are the holes already drilled in the doors?

If not take a look at this-

and don't ever do yourself down, if us blokes could do half the things you women can do, we wouldn't go to work to get out of doing them

there should be 2 35mm holes aprox 6mm in from the edge of the door!

the large recess part of the hinge sits in those and then you use 2 12mm screws to hold each hinge in place!
the "butterfly" plate side of the hinge screws into the cabinet into hole that are paired and set aprox 35mm back from the edge of the cabinet!

heights of those are dependant on where the cabinets came from so offer up the door with the hinges on if its not obvious! screw them into place!

Slot the door part over the cabinet part locating the clip or screw( depending on where the hinge came from)
