| Is there a hinge designed for this? |

My artwork is from mamemarquees and is his self adhesive overlay. I actually applied the cpo on top of the plexi to create a smooth surface and allow the lip of plexi to rest on the wood frame in the front. The panel is currently installed and works quite well, but I couldn't forsee all the little issues so before I pull the panel off (which is a real hassel in its current state) I want to have the hinges ready to install. I already have plans to protect the front edge after I get everything finished. |

Hard to tell but the Four Way Hinge from Lee Valley might work? http://www.leevalley.com/hardware/page.aspx?c=2&cat=3&p=41241 |

Rockler has a bit of a tutorial at: http://www.rockler.com/articles/display_article.cfm?&story_id=52 I think this would do you: http://www.rockler.com/ecom7/product_details.cfm?offerings_id=2281 You could also do this with two regular hinges and a short length of wood or something (to give you the clearance you need for that lip). |

I was also looking at websites hoping to get an idea of what I need to buy. I searched for European hinges and there seems to be several kinds. Is there a particular type that is used for this kind of stuff? --- End quote --- i know the type people mean but im afraid they wont help, i have ton all around the house and that lip means you wont be able to open it with any hinge i know of unless you want your hnge showing through the plexi |
