Kit Car Door and Hinge Products

This is a new redesign based on the 1B design with improvements to ease mounting and installation. Also, the hinge base is two inches shorter than previous designs, allowing this to be the more flexible in installation angles than our other "Style 1" designs. The hinge allows about eighty degrees of swing and the same swing radius as current and previous "1B" designs. The hinge body is 3" wide, and the base on the 1B-4 is 4" long. General installation instructions are included.

These hinges are alternative designs intended for use on kit cars with scissor hinging doors. Using these hinges for other applications may require custom work. A short description of some of the considerations are linked here. The hinge body is 3" wide. One pair provides hinges for two doors. General installation instructions are included.
