Door Pivot Hinges Heavy Duty Hinges for Max 200 lb. Wood Doors， Pivot Hinges for Hidden Door Bookcase, and Secret Door, with Door Ball Catch Hardware (Type I)I ordered this pivot hinge to create a bookshelf secret door leading to a room we call the Sneak. We have an ancient home that we put in rooms, closets, and a bathroom in the attic. It is an old Victorian home with a very angled roof. When adding the rooms, we found we only had two walls that needed an angled ceiling. They were the walls between the rooms. So, in one room, we added a doorway into a smaller room to accommodate the closet and support the ceiling. It is large enough to hold a desk and a twin bed. I always wanted to make it into an I Dream of Genie Room., so we thought it would be amazing to have a secret door. We decided on a bookshelf/ door.So, with excitement from my husband and I and that of my kiddo, who would now have a secret James Bond room and our hinge in hand, we found a bookshelf to become the outside door. We put the plan in motion following the directions, suggestions, and tips we found online. Our simple bookshelf from Walmart was a perfect size and was within the limit of 200 pounds for the hinge; when we began working with the hinge, we encountered some problems, but they were not the fault of the hinge. We did follow the advice of others concerning the weight limit. The shelves would hold a few books, but it was created to hold Funko Pops! and other items that give insight into our teen's favorite things.Even with the difficulties, pay attention to the details; it was worth the final result.

Nice hinges. Works as listed. Used to add a hidden door in the laundry room

I’ve always been a fan of the midway pivot hinges you see at some nice hotels & restaurants, but didn’t really see the ability to put on in a residence anywhere. The hardware isn’t readily available, and I don’t remember seeing anything like this in anyone’s house before. Well, that was all the more reason to get it. Now there is going to be some sleuthing involved if you’re anything like me. If you have someone in your house that is mechanically minded and good with their hands I hope they owe you a favor. The hinge itself is VERY WELL CRAFTED. I literally can’t find a single imperfection anywhere on the body, and the joint articulates very smoothly and reliably. It’s almost a waste to just put it on the master door, but hey, sometimes you just need to go for it. This will take some time to install, but what you’re left with will be breathtaking. Good luck…..
