Earlier this year I bought some 1/2" partial wrap around hinges for
1/2" full inset doors. Now I need more and all I can find are for 3/4" doors. Any suggestions? Rob |

Have you tried asking the supplier that you purchased to previous hinges from, or looking on the manufacturer's website, or doing a google search? A simple google search using the phrase "1/2" partial wrap around hinge" turned up a ton of results. Lots of options to chose from to match your existing hinges. |

Mike, at the risk of sounding ungratefull, the search that you
suggested was exactly the search that I used, and it appears that there are tons of hinges, however when you click on the links you will find that they are links to hinges for 3/4" doors. This is another case of Google providing bad information. It appears the the google search engine is ignoring the 1/2" portion of the search.

Use the search string I included in my earlier post. It shows all different size hinges including 1/2" |

I just used the exact same search string again, and one of the first returns was this site. http://www.hardwaresource.com/hinges...C+Partial+Wrap Take a look - all different sizes. -- -Mike- |

Thanks Mike, I guess I didn't accurately say what I am looking for. What I need is a partial wrap hinge for a 1/2" thick full inset door. |

I have noticed that google has become less selective and tries to offer you something that might be close. Seems like google has taken a step back.. When google first came out there engine was dead on pinpoint accurate, while yahoo and excite were like google today. I miss the old google. -- Jeff |

That might well be because there's so many more websites available now as compared to when Google first came out. I frequently find myself putting quotation marks around my query words in order to narrow down the searches to exact phrases. |

Earlier this year I bought some 1/2" partial wrap around hinges for 1/2" full inset doors. Now I need more and all I can find are for 3/4" doors. Given the near universiality of 3/4" doors, I think you are going to have extreme difficulty finding a hinge of the type you want made for a thinner door. Any suggestions? Yes. Use a hinge for a 3/4 door and pad it out 1/4" on the back side. Either as a narow strip along the hinge side or just as a pad under the hinge. -- dadiOH ____________________________ Winters getting colder? Tired of the rat race? Taxes out of hand?

Rob I don't know hinges much beyond re-hanging a door but do you mean something like this? http://www.amazon.com/Amerock-BP7550...osing-Partial- Overlay/dp/B000I22LUM or http://www.amazon.com/Amerock-BP8719...table-Partial- Overlay/sim/B000PD24CY/2 or these http://www.hardwaresource.com/hinges...Overlay+Hinges, +Wrap+Around+-+Partial+Inset+Hinges/Overlay+Hinges,+Partial+Wrap or (sorry the following's a Canadian link but USA should have them I guess) http://www.homedepot.ca/product/1-2-...e-brass/901963 Search results from https://startpage.com/do/search (uses google but I like it better) using search criteria hinge half inch partial wrap |

Much has to do w/ paid content skewing results to the top I think...combined with the advent of other 'bots that are used to foist "hits" to enhance sites' ordering in search results. The explosion of content is a part of it as well as others have mentioned altho not convinced that's the key part... -- |
