Replacement Brass Hinges For Old Wood Concertina Cases

[David Helmore]

Hi Folks

 

I've got a couple of old wooden concertina cases where the lids have become detached due to broken/and missing brass hinges. Does anyone know a supplier for replacements roughly the same size (22mm x 18mm). I'm based in London UK

 

Thanks as always for any help!

What you are looking for is STOP hinges as they dont open over about 110 degrees and as such are almost un- obtainable in the small size .There are 1 3/4" available and it is possible to cut them down but they dont look right. I get mine from car boot sales on old boxes ,so charity shops and boot sales are a pretty damn good scouce. Hope that this helps

Thanks for the info - will start checking out the charity shops!
