A great hinge for all wood cabinetry!
Whether you’re looking to install a lid on an heirloom hope chest, or hang a door on a custom cabinet, Desunia is pleased to offer the ideal hinge that can make it happen, at a price you can afford.
Specifications
This hinge measures 72″ long, and is 1-1/2″ wide (when fully open). The leaf thickness is an unheard of 06″. Countersunk holes are drilled for #6 screws and are spaced 3″ apart.
Fantastic Finish
The core material of the hinge is steel, while the outside has a beautiful antique bronze finish that will do justice to all fine cabinetry.
Screws Included
While some manufacturers don’t even offer them, we include 48 matching #6 x 3/4″ screws for your convenience.
Installation Tips
– For a balanced look, hold the hinge against the wood and position it so the holes at each end are centered.
– Mark the cut line (tip: applying masking tape to the hinge makes this step a bit easier) and cut to length with a hack saw.
– Clean up any burrs using a bench grinder or file.
– Use a self-centering Vix Bit and pre-drill the minimum holes needed to temporarily hang the door.
– Install the door and check alignment. If adjustments are needed, you can fine-tune things by using some of the holes that are still undrilled.
– Once everything is just right, pre-drill and install the rest of the screws to complete the job. Done!

Best piano hinge I’ve ever used
EASILY the best continuous hinge or piano hinge I’ve ever used. Really robust and well made. Machined beautifully and all the hardware was included and packaged very professionally to protect the hinge itself. Also the instructions and tips have some humo which is always appreciated. Highly recommend!Absolutely perfectly for the “aged and beat up” pistol case I made for a client. Fits the aesthetic and is more durable and smooth than any piano hinge I’ve ever used before.

High quality hinge and packaged well
The piano hinge itself is very high quality, with properly countersunk holes and an attractive and consistent finish. What was more surprising was the packaging, with the hinge being shipped in a very durable plastic container that was clearly made to fit the hinge. I would definitely buy again when I need a high quality hinge that is not going to get damaged from careless packaging.

Heavy duty continuous hinges
I was initially shocked at the price of these hinges. All the others were half this price. But I had to consider the weight of my project. I built tri-folded white oak plantation shutters for our living room front picture window. Each shutter was 16.5 pounds with these hinges and 57 inches tall and 16.75 inches wide. So three sections of this weight ran out over four feet. This is considerable stress for piano hinges. But my wife talked me to six of these babies because she didn’t want the whole thing coming down on us or our grandkids. Almost $300.00 for them all. But I was glad after purchasing them and seeing they were solid, thick, countersunk and plenty heavy enough for our needs. And they came with extra screws!!! Obviously the makers knew you were going to snap a few heads off – even using pre-drilled holes and paste wax for lubricant. But I only snapped three out of 300. I accidentally had some similar screws get mixed in with this bunch and those screws snapped off at around 50%. Huge difference. The installation went well and I was glad for the extra heft and know they will hold up for the long haul. All in all, you can’t go wrong with these hinges. And by the way. These guys have a great sense of humor. Just see the instruction sheet. A great buy!The only con is that each of these were shipped separately. So I got six six foot long boxes with one hinge in each – along with six shipping/delivery notices at the same time. I don’t think it would have been too heavy to ship them all together. But not a deal killer.

BEEFY hinge! Looks great!!
This thing is BEEFY! it works great for the mantle I made with a flip down front. It is a thicker metal than every other piano hinge I have seen at the big box stores. The only hiccup I had was one of the screws twisted the head off when I put it in. This was my fault for using an impact driver. Maybe throw a couple extra screws in the bag. This hinge is capable of handling alot! I plan on testing that theory with the next build I make. Stay tuned!

If quality matters this is what you need
I rarely have time to review any of the products I purchase on Amazon but when I find something that goes beyond my expectations it’s worth mentioning. I needed a heavy duty hinge to replace several Blum concealed hinges on my entertainment center. Blum makes a quality product but the mounting hardware on the model I had stuck out too far and made it impossible to install a sliding base shelf. My only option was to go with a piano hinge set up. The wood/glass doors these needed to support weigh around 15lbs each. I cut the 72″ hinge (using a regular hacksaw) into to 30″ pieces. They easily support these 15lb wood/glass doors. These hinges are extremely well made and the Antique Bronze finish would go with just about anything. Not only are these hinges heavy duty, they are ascetically pleasing and give the appearance that they came with the furniture as compared to looking like a cheap replacement or quick repair. They are well worth the added cost!!! I should also note that they were very well packaged given their 72″ size.

Worked well for my project, but mor elike aged copper than bronze
Deducting a star since it was a distinctly reddish color rather than aged bronze which is a dull gold. I know bronze has copper in it, but this was STILL too reddish. It is too red even for aged copper, which is more of a deep orange-brown.Also, the screws that came with it are too small for a piano hinge meant to hold a heavy lid on to a chest or cabinet. So I used longer #9 screws. The countersinks for the screws also could have been a bit deeper (for the #9 screws). The heads of those stick up a bit, but the lid still closes flush since the screw holes are offset from the one on the other leaf of the hinge.Otherwise, it worked well and I would but it again (but maybe after looking around a bit more due to the issues above).

Exceptional Quality
I haven’t installed the hinge yet, but the high quality of the hinge and the accompanying screws is clear. The hinge is hefty. What has impressed me most is the packaging. It was shipped in a hard plastic case that appears to be purpose built — a slim, rectangular case that the hinge slides into snugly. And on top of that the hinge was wrapped in heavy duty plastic wrap. These folks care.

Excellent Quality Piano Hinge
The hinge was received with a small bend in the last 18″ of the hinge, which appeared to have happened in shipping. BUT, this was easily bent out by hand on the work bench, there was no deformation in the hinge or damage to the finish. This hinge was cut down and used for two 36″ doors on a period style cabinet. Very impressed at the heavy gauge material, the fit in general and finish. This was used for a custom sewing wall cabinet for thread storage. Worked fantastically, definitely recommend and plan to buy additional hinges for other cabinets as soon as they are back in stock with the vendor. Note the color is darker than appears in the picture, the flash has lightened the overall picture. Highly recommended.
