Which hinges for fold back shutters?

[GrinAndBearIt]

Hello hive mind ...

... can anyone tip me off as to what these kind of hinges would be called?

Basically my wife would like me to fit interior shutters to a window, and they should be able to fold back, flush with the wall, revealing the full window when open ....

Be so grateful if anyone could give me a tip!

Strangely enough they are called shutter hinges.

That is indeed really strange foxhole.

Even stranger that you have to go to America to buy them ...

I presume parliament hinges achieve the same thing or are the same thing?

Apart from the annoying voice, are they different from Parliament hinges?

Some of the ones in the link are Cranked hinges.

Thanks Freddy! Still got no idea how you got those letters to appear in the little search box, let alone in the right order etc., but your amazing link just did it all for me. I'm all made up. Genius.

Sarcasm aside ... thanks Bilabong007 ... YES, it is the cranked hinge I need, although it will need some sort of strip of wood placed inside the reveal for it to work from. Hafele seem to do a good range, or this from SDS.

A little pricey though ...

No worries, turns out you were right, you are a thick tw%$t after all.
