Your original post made me consider fitting them to a couple of doors I need to replace here. So I searched and searched. Found this US site - it certainly has a huge range of hinges and might provide enough of a brand/model id/description to help: http://www.hardwaresource.com/ No - I couldn't find what I wanted. :-( -- Rod Hypothyroidism is a seriously debilitating condition with an insidious onset.

The radiused hinge flaps also lend themselves to using a Router to cut the recesses. Perhaps a factory installation rather than a chippy on site doing it the conventional way. |

You can find the items in their Produktkatalog http://www.trioving.no/katalog/ Page 213 for the hinge part (Item No. 2010-Standard) Page 217 for the door part (Item No. 2465) I too though they were designed for mass/factory-produced doors given the nice router-friendly corners. They must be available over here, seeing as several of us have them ) -- Fred |

With the number of Router fans in the UK I am surprised that more hinges don't have Router friendly corners. Perhaps our 'professionals' are traditionalists. I am now thinking that a builder imported doors with frames and all fittings from Norway. I cannot see a down-side to them can you? |

Don't know that I'd fancy hand-holding a router up to a door frame in situ.... Let's face it, square corners are much easier to cut with a chisel ) I am now thinking that a builder imported doors with frames and all fittings from Norway. I'd say you were right. The strike plate has rounded corners too and the cut-out in the frame for the catch to drop into has been done with a router. These are obviously factory produced items sold as a complete kit, rather than the 'make it up as you go along' method... I cannot see a down-side to them can you? Nope. -- Fred |

On page 64 it describes their DorKit replacement door kits that consist of door frames and pre-mounted doors - with hinges described as: "Hung on white or bronze effect hinges, which offer adjustment of door to stop and removal if required." Photo is not easy to interpret - too small - but they do appear to be asymmetric which might mean they are generally of the type mentioned earlier. Wondering if those earlier ones came from a similar source? -- Rod Hypothyroidism is a seriously debilitating condition with an insidious onset.
