Cranked hinges

[richardabeattie]

My vertical locker doors are made of ply and fit over the holes they cover, not into them. So to open more than 90 degrees the hinges need the pin to be out on the outer edge of the doors and that means the non-moving part of the hinge has to be cranked back to sit on the surrounds. I have a couple of old cranked hinges but Ali Baba's Cave and Sea Preach can't find such things in their catalogues. Any suggestions please? My only alternative is to mount a conventional flat hinge out on the face of the door and put an ugly pad under the fixed side of the hinge.

Timage do them as well. I don't think they have a website but give them a ring on 01376-343087 and they'll send you a catalogue.

That photo is just the ticket but alas the crank is 20mm which is too big. But grateful for all the responses.

The DIY Store link just seems to provide a definitin of a cranked hinge (thought he one they shw is a concealed version) and the other link is to a company offering continuous hinges and no drawings.
