Piano Hinge
 

I need two short piano hinges, approx. 24 inches. I'm thinking about sawing
a 48 inch hinge in half. Will I have any problem with the pin staying put?
The hinges will be used vertically.

Thanks

Tim

With a good quality hinge, you shouldn't have any trouble ... it's done all
the time.

I cut a piano hinge in two and tried to drive the pin out but couldn't.

No.
We saw them up all the time with no problems. I don't know what holds
that thing in but it won't come out.
