Help me find this vintage cupboard hardware

Condo Home
6 anni fa

Does anyone have any ideas about where I might find hardware like this? It is 1 1/2" high and a hair under 3" width (total, including both sides of the hinge)

I will need to remove the doors and I am sure the existing hardware will break in the process. The cupboard door has more layers of paint on it than I can count but the area under the hinge probably doesn't have any paint at all, so I would like to cover up that area. Ideas for any other hardware that might similarly cover up the areas without all the paint are also appreciated.

    Those hinges you have now are better quality than anything you will buy new. Remove them by unscrewing, using a putty knife to separate them from the painted surface, if necessary and put them I a crockpot to cook the paint off. Or look for new old stock on eBay, which is where I found some I needed.

      What is your plan for the cupboard? Are you repainting? Or are you simply wanting to replace the hinge? Google “ antique butterfly hinge”. I just found two of them priced at $1.00. Hingevintagehardware.con.

      Item is called a butterfly hinge.

      Will this work??

      I believe it is the same hinge.

      Thank you all so much! I would never have found those or known what they were called without your help.

      Do as 1929 says please, they are probably solid brass and try to save the screws too!

      Why don't you slather some Citristrip on them? It works on vertical surfaces and won't eat your skin, either. It should help loosen the layers, if not completely peel them off. You can then be able to get a putty knife under the without slipping and scratching them. I'm also confident they're brass and probably beautiful.

      1929Spanish is right, boil those babies and the paint comes right off. Just remember that when you dump them out and pick them up to (use a plastic scrubbie to remove the stubborn stuff -- no metal) that they're scalding hot! I was so excited I forgot that detail. Ouch!
