All the others had been taken off a long time ago. This morning I ran my wheelchair into the door took it off the hinge. I knew the door was there. I knew I was going to hit it unless I stopped. But the message never got to my hand. At least I haven't broken any screws in the wheelchair YET. I am going to request offset hinges but I do not know anyone who has them. Does anyone here have them? The opening door frame to wall is small, only 4 inches.
Re: [QUAD-L] Offset Door Hinges
Remember, that off-set hinges allow the door to open wider, but it won't stretch your existing door opening. In other words if your door opening is 30 inches wide, it will continue to be 30 inches wide. Off set hinges come in several grades of stainless steel, steel and maybe aluminum. If your original door has 3 hinges, you should replace them with 3 offset hinges. Does your door have a lever or knob handle? If knob, time to consider a lever while rehab'ing the door.
