Steel backflap hinges

This whole timber shutter refurbishment has been a lesson in cabinetry ironmongery for me. The next thing I learnt was what a 'back flap hinge' was. This is a hinge which can fold back on itself - needed for our bi-panel shutters. As you can see from the photo the originals were covered in paint and rusting around the edges and in need of replacement so after many various samples, we finally found a close match.
