Not sure what you mean. Are you talking about hose you often see on sheds

Yes, of course, you've pointed me in the right direction. What I want
is a small strap hinge. I want the 'short' side small enough to fit
onto the edge of an 18mm thick door while the long side will be fixed
onto a wall.

Or, more correctly, a tee hinge. I need small ones though, probably
75mm, and I want 'nice looking' ones for indoor domestic use.

There are also 'short sided' hinges which would provide what I want.

I've just looked for asymmetric hinge on Google images, and found
quite a few but foreign.

A diagram of a hinge pin being removed gave me the idea that you could
buy big and small hinges from the same maker, then pair them oddly
after removing and replacing the pins.

Yes, I found quite a few 'possibles' in my continued searches using
'tee', 'short sided', etc. in the search. However some of the prices
are insane, like why are these £32 :-

Just two flat plates with a pin through. I did eventually find
similar from Hong Kong for about £1. For some reason hinges seem to
be sold by rip-off merchants, I found one from 'Suffolk Latches' which
was £16 but the identical item from the same dealer's eBay shop was £8.

At a lower level tee hinges from B&Q cost £5 and up, identical items
from Toolstation and Screwfix are less than one pound. Yes, I know
B&Q are hardly renowned for low prices but the differential in hinge
prices seems worse than for most things.
