Tips on installing and adjusting a continuous hinge. Start by driving the minimum number of screws to operate the lid and check the fit. You can push the screw back or forth to adjust the position of the hinge by a small amount. Worst case: remove the screw, plug hole with a wooden plug and drill and drive again. Get the lid fitting perfectly before driving the rest of the screws, and drive two at a time checking the fit after each one.
