Curl

the Curl of the hinge

The "Curl" of a hinge is the part of the leaf that wraps around the pin.

Most hinges have simple knuckles as shown here, but there are two interesting exceptions: Extruded hinges and double wrap hinges.

Broadly speaking, most Guden hinges are provided with a curl that is loose enough to remove the pin should you desire, unless the description of the hinge indicates otherwise.

Of course we can also provide various methods of pin retention to fix the pin in place.
