I am trying to find a pair of hinges that have an offset swivel point. I have seen something like this but i don't know what it is called, or where to buy them. Have done an exhaustive Google search but without a name it is proving difficult. It is best to show a picture that I have drawn Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅

The standard type of extended hinge (parliament hinge) is designed to let a door open more than 90⁰ while clearing the reveals.

It's not what you've drawn but it's the closest sort of hinge I can think of.

I'll post a video hinging. It is for a camper van bed that converts to a seat. Imagine 2 single foam mattresses, each on a plywood base. One folds upwards, about 80 degrees to form a backrest of a seat. A normal hinge won't work because the mattresses will collide. This hinge should lift it up over the seat-one. Actually this site won't let me upload a video, a photo of it will have to do. Like ⋅ Add a comment ⋅ Pin to Ideaboard ⋅ |
