Tee hinges

[Possom]

I was going to have some timber ledge & brace framed doors made for a brick shed.

I had been thinking of using the Centurion brand 250 mm (10") Galvanised heavy Scotch tee hinges (link below). Out of curiosity what does "Scotch" mean in this context?

The person who would make them said he usually uses 6" Crompton t hinge which is better than scotch, and more than adequate for a shed door. I've searched online for this and it appears to be the hinge linked-to below:

What do you think of what he said?

I used these recently for a garden gate:

I've come round to hook and band hinges. Stronger, resist rust better. You can bolt them through the ledges of the door. Cost is not great as part of a shed with a substantial door.

Galvanised, and paint before fitting.

The cranked versions allow the door or gate to recess more into the frame or post, so the bolt or lock gets a better seat.

IIRC the length is supposed to be a quarter to a third the width of the door.
