I've tried "everywhere" to find rising-butt hinges, including at a
specialist hardware store that sells all kinds of door and cabinet
hinges, latches and handles. Nobody has heard of them, except that the
buyer for this latter store knew what I was talking about but said that
he had no idea where to get them.

The Ace Hardware Web site describes them on a DIY information page, but
Ace does not list them as an available item. One vendor in San Diego
lists one size, but for an outrageous price.

Anybody have any suggestions as to where I might find such things?
Perhaps there's an obvious source that I haven't thought of.

I believe Stanley makes some??? At least at one time, long-long ago...


Not used a pair in 30 years since, so don't have a clue about currently,
but I'd try there.
