Mine are just like Alans....euro hinges are the way to go. Just make sure you buy the $10 kit that makes the drilling of the holes for the hinges to sit into the door a lot easier. I know some idiot who used a Dremel to cut out the hole.....ok, that idiot was me 
Here is the bit for the drill:

I am doorless....doorfree....wide open so the world can see!
But Euro Hinges are the way to go if I had doors.

Linda, you saw mine from my tank build. I got mine from cabinetdoorsandhardware.com. They have any size and style you can imagine. If they dont have what you want they can make it for you. It is cheap too!!! I just got unfinished oak and then stained them the same color as my stand

Lowes has some nice Shell, Star Fish and Ocean specific door handles. At least they did last year when I was buying handles to replace the ones on my old 40 Cube.

Not quite as fancy as some others, but I was going for simple.
If anyone is interested here is a link to my 65 build.

Thanks! Will check out the pictures when I get home; filter blocks them here @ work.
And I'm going for simple too, since the DIY stand is already *busy* enough.
We've run into a problem though in that there's very little clearance between the door opening and the bottom baseboard. Not sure how we'll get around this. If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.
Stand is being stained/finished and will be ready to put up the tank this weekend. "I guess I'm going to be doorless... doorfree and open for the world to see" like Mark. Can't put off moving my stuff from the 55g to the 90g any longer. Critters are getting restless.
