Looking for a particular type of hinge, but frustrated because I don't
know the proper name.

For a lifting flap, but the pivot needs to be half inch or so above
the flap surface, if that makes sense.Â* Hinge fixing surface is
horizontal, then bends 90 degrees to vertical, to the pivot, then back
down 90 degrees to horizontal again.Â* Any thoughts?


Old hardware catalogues used to have something called iirc bar-top
hinges, for the kind of thing Del-boy fell through. The pivot ½" proud
though? that would be wierd.

searching for "counter flap hinges" seems to give a fair few. (But I
ran away the only time I was asked to fit them: tapered rebates beyond me.)
