[QUOTE="Macrosill, post: 427751, member: 11079"] I have been fixated on the storage lid hinges. I am trying to come up with a hinge that will be hidden under the deck but still allow the storage lids to fold over completely. Piano hinges protrude above the decking slightly. In my search I found these: [ATTACH type="full" alt="hinge.jpg"]89617._xfImport[/ATTACH] https://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/32854309 I am not sure if they will clear 1" when opened, 1/2 " for the deck and 1/2" for the lid. I may order one to try. Has anyone found something similar or already solved my dilemma with something I have not seen yet? edit: Another option I just thought of is to have some sort of support under the deck so I can mount a standard euro type hinge on a vertical surface of the deck and then the lid would only have to open 90 degrees. This may be a better way to go. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
