Length
Length
The hinge length measured parallel to the pin.
Continuous (or piano) hinges come in any length up to about 96 inches.
For most items (up to .074 thick) it is most economical to choose even multiples of knuckle length. For heavier items that are hand blanked and curled, this is less important.
We may suggest a different knuckle length, number of knuckles or overall hinge length to afford you the optimum value.
