What sort of hinge is this

[Bodone]

Hi All,

Any idea what sort/name of this hinge is? Thanks all.

stepped hinge....?

cranked hinge

I think that is a 'single cranked hinge' as only one side is bent

you could also try searching for 'stormproof hinges' though they seem to be double cranked on the whole

Yes, searched for storm and cranked, but only found them with single set of holes on each ‘butt’ and none in the middle section. Guess I can just drill and countersink them.

Thanks for ideas all.

I'd send your photo to a few specialist suppliers, the one near me used to call itself an 'architectural ironmongers' which just meant door furniture as far as I could tell

@Bodone Z hinge. Or L hinge. Google search for Z and L hinges brings up images like your pic.

It does, but not with that 'third' bank of hotels in the middle leaf - That's why i wandered if their was a special name for that style.

If you search through the "images" tab of the search term you'll find a couple of companies (that appear to be in India) do a hinge "similar" with the extra holes, in stainless steel. Maybe not the sizes you want/need/are looking for but they do come up under the term Z and L hinge... and Cranked. You may, as you said earlier, have to drill those extra holes yourself. Depends on how many you need.

I tried a number of "terms" to try to find the hinge you are looking for... even tried "types of hinge" to get images and names for hinges available. Don't know what you may have tried?

All the best in your search
