Also known as spear or spade
hinges, the strap hinges are a great way of showing off your antique or
restored home. These hinges are designed for heavy doors, interior or
exterior and are available in variety of sizes. This is another type of
hinge for utility rather than looks. The strap hinge consists of two
long narrow leaves of equal size extending from a single knuckle. These
hinges come in various sizes, both large and small. But the length of
the leaves of strap hinge militates against their being mounted on a
normal door jamb. Rather, these hinges are use where you have a lid of
some sort that you want hinged in the center.
