My life is dictated by almighty God's beautiful, symmetrical lunar calendar and the concept of a fixed New Year is anathema to me.

Small Stainless Butt Hinges: Source In Central Scotland or O

Post by BlowingOldBoots »

Hi,

I have been searching on Google for small stainless butt hinges for cabinet doors. The doors are 10 mm thick mounted into 10 mm thick ply. So, I need a hinge leaf that is 10 mm wide. The doors are light weight so a 2 hole hinge would be fine.

Any idea where such small size hinges can be obtained? I have only found much larger sizes. At the end of the day I can glue some blocks to the door and carcass to make them thicker if I have to use larger hinges.

Thanks,

Alastair

I got some small brass hinges from discounthardwareuksupplies
They seem OK though not marvellous. I haven't checked if they do stainless.

Derek,

Thanks for the link. This lead led to http://www.marchesironmongery.co.uk/sd- ... -pair.html which have the brass ones. None in stainless for the size I want. At least now I have the option to buy the correct size in Brass.
