Trailer Parts Direct Hinge Selector

Answer a few practical questions to narrow the Trailer Parts Direct hinge range. This tool identifies suitable product options by application, operation, mounting, material, environment and size - it does not calculate structural load capacity.

1. What are you hinging?

Choose the application that best describes your project.

2. How do you want the hinge to operate?

You do not need to know the hinge family - choose the behaviour you want.

3. Does the hinge need to clear a door seal or raised edge?

If you are using a raised H/J style door seal, choose Yes. Unsure keeps both possibilities.

4. How will the hinge be attached?

Choose the intended fixing method.

5. Do you need the door or panel to be removable / lift-off?

Choose Yes only where lift-off/removal is an intentional design requirement.

6. Installation environment

316 stainless is treated separately from 304 stainless. Unspecified stainless grades are classified as 304.
