Hi, 

    My
first post here, I’ve been around a while and have seen some of your
websites.  Nice idea Jim Lubin, thanks for doing the quad-list.  

   

I think I can help you KK. I have these
hinges in my house.  It says Stanley 
on them.  I found some similar at 
http://www.stanleyhardware.com/default.asp?TYPE=STATICLEFTPAGE=cht_specialty.htmLEFT=left_cht_specialty.htm
called Swing Clear Hinges. 

   

Good Luck and for Pete’s sake
learn how to drive my friend.

Hinges 



   





I
only had the front door  a door between my bedroom  living room. 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.

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.
 
Best Wishes
