I'm going to replace some internal doors in our house and could do with some advice about where to place the hinges.
The original doors were hollow ply and the new ones are heavier solid doors, about 22kg each. The replacement hinges are 3" steal double washered butt hinges with a chrome plating chosen by my wife so no arguing there.
I'm going to put the top hinge at 6" and the bottom at 9" but I'm guessing that two hinges might struggle under the load. If I use three, where should the be placed?
Options seem to be one in the middle or another somewhere near the top. I can see the rationale for either but could do with a steer.
