Product Review

A great hinge for all wood cabinetry!
Whether you're looking to install a lid on an heirloom hope chest, or hang a door on a custom cabinet, Dugan Hardware Systems is pleased to offer the ideal hinge that can make it happen, at a price you can afford.

Specifications
This hinge measures 72" long, and is 1-1/2" wide (when fully open). The leaf thickness is an unheard of 06". Countersunk holes are drilled for #6 screws and are spaced 3" apart.

Fantastic Finish
The core material of the hinge is steel, while the outside has a beautiful antique bronze finish that will do justice to all fine cabinetry.

Screws Included
While some manufacturers don't even offer them, we include 48 matching #6 x 3/4" screws for your convenience.

Installation Tips
- For a balanced look, hold the hinge against the wood and position it so the holes at each end are centered.
- Mark the cut line (tip: applying masking tape to the hinge makes this step a bit easier) and cut to length with a hack saw.
- Clean up any burrs using a bench grinder or file.
- Use a self-centering Vix Bit and pre-drill the minimum holes needed to temporarily hang the door.
- Install the door and check alignment. If adjustments are needed, you can fine-tune things by using some of the holes that are still undrilled.
- Once everything is just right, pre-drill and install the rest of the screws to complete the job. Done!

Here's what you get
- 1 Antique Bronze continuous piano hinge 1-1/2" wide x 72" long
- Matching #6 x 3/4" installation screws
