Hi –
I have conservatory doors which open outwards into the garden. I have replacement hinges of similar size but for the screw positions to match the existing hinges I would need to reverse them which would of course place the countersinks on the inner face? To elaborate: the 3-knuckle side of existing hinge is fixed to the door frame and the top screw hole is to the left of centre rather than in the centre as it would be with the replacement hinge. Are my existing hinges oddball or obsolete or some different specification?? I will appreciate advice as, rather than a simple change of hinges, the alternative will be to fill all existing screw holes and completely re-hang both doors. (I know I could (possibly) countersink the new hinges on the reverse side but I don’t fancy doing this with 48 holes!).
Regards.
