This exterior door hinge is mounted to the interior face of the door. It
has a right angle bend to it, forming a flange about 1/4" wide. The
mating half is flat and mortised into the jamb.

I would like to source new hinges of this exact size and style, but I
don't know what to search for. Is there a name for this particular style
of hinge?


this is the closest i could quickly find

Another place to look - some look close.

If all else fails, check with an architectural salvage place, if you
have one. Do you know how old the hinges are?


House was built in 1952. It's likely looking that I will be re-using the
old hinges. I can take them off for refinishing. Just thought if I could
readily buy new, I'd do it.
