I'm after some small (probably 1" or 1.5" or thereabouts) decorative
lift off hinges for some panels behind which I need access on my boat.

I'm after the sort that you can mount with most of the hinge hidden
but with just the hinge pin visible. Sometimes you can get them with
'decorative' hinge pins with finials or whatever.

So, is there a special name for this sort of thing and/or can anyone
suggest a supplier?

I just call them "pin hinges" my house has them and very handy too come
decorating time, these are the usual 3 or 4" for a door, I'm sure you
will find smaller ones ...

1.5" doughty pin hinge, the pin and hinge sold separately for some
reason, they're not the prettiest of hinges though ...

Definitely not these.

No, they're not concealed.

That's not even a hinge! :-)


What I'm after is basically an ordinary hinge which is mounted so that
the pin/pivot is exposed in front of the door. It's the old way of
providing 180 degree hinges.

I'll try:

https://www.windowware.co.uk/eurospe...-h3n1105-11szp

Any of those? I don't think they'll do 180 degrees, but most of.

They're all the right sort of thing but far too big, they seem to be
door (as in door that you walk through) hinges. I want to hinge
little panels that are only a couple of feet square at most and weigh
less than 1kg (mixed units!).

You used to see the sort of thing I'm after on cheap(er) kitchen units
back in the 1960s. They weren't actually lift off but the hinge pin
was on a sort of cantilever mount such that it was in front of the
door and allowed the door to swing right back against the adjacent door.

I said 'lift off' hinges because I have seen them designed for this
sort of job where the hinge pin is exposed.

The smallest ones of these would probably suit, however where can I
buy them?

This kind of thing? Our kitchen cupboards have something similar. Don't know where to get them though. They came with the cupboards from Winchmore a good many years ago.

Yes! Thank you Owain, they're what I want. The cranked hinges are
what I was trying to describe as used on old kitchen cabinets, the
'decorative' ones might suit very well too.

Thanks again!

I've not tried this but always thought you could take any hinge, grind the end off the pin & remove the pin, and insert a nail to make it removable.
