Installation Tips
This hinge mounts on the outside of your trunk, allowing the lid to open all the way back to 180 degrees. For controlled opening, pair with a trunk lid stay or chain to prevent the lid from falling backward. Most trunks require 2-3 hinges depending on lid width.
Ideal for antique officer trunk restoration, steamer trunk repair, vintage luggage projects, custom wooden boxes, and period-accurate trunk building.
