That’s what I’m going to buy!

Hey Splintered, thanks for stopping back and taking the time to comment. I would suggest you buy them soon, even if you're not ready for them. They are about the cheapest hinges in the store and if they stop stocking them it's cost you way more. Be well .... Dave

This is what I’ve been looking for. I only have a circular saw and straight edge and was trying to figure out how to build my door without renting a router and table saw and now I feel like I can do without. Thank you!

[@VanOfAction]

Hi Ashton. You are welcome and I’m glad you found it useful. I too didn’t have a ton of tools. But it would hard to build the doors without a table saw ….. ruclips.net/video/3WSMSySXrU0/видео.htmlsi=az5mXRbnDn08IPTD. However the cost can be very minimal. If you look for auctions and estate sales near you you’ll be surprised at how cheap things can be. Here is what I used in my shop.

Do you think half inch would be strong enough to handle the force needed to open the hinge without tearing out?

[@VanOfAction]

No - I think 1/2" would be too light. I do appreciate you watching and asking .... the torque these hinges have is surprising ..... if you're door stock is only 1/2" the screw you use will be shorter ....and they just can't hold. Good luck .. dave

[@biancatubino]

Very helpful video, would be great to know the name/style of the hinges though.

[@VanOfAction]

Hi Bianca - thanks for watching - these hinges don't seem to have a name - I can't post a photo here but if you send me an email at [e-mail] I'll send you back a photo of the Home Depot bin they came out of .... I hope that helps .... Dave

[@sharonmoran4310]

They are called lay-on hinges or Frog Hinges, at least in Ireland and UK. Very helpful vid!
