I am trying to make four panel screens and I am having difficulty finding hinges larger than for 3/4″ stock. Screens are for outdoor and I am using cedar two bys.
Any suggestions other than making them out of wood?
Thanx

VanDyke's carries a "folding room divider panel hinge" designed for 7/8" stock. They are copper, not sure how well they'd work, but here's the link:

Thank you for your help. I amy have to pare down the stock from itspresent dimensions if I can't locate 1 1/2 inch hinges. Thanks again. Harry
Harry, the people at VanDyke's have been very helpful to me in the past. You might try calling them, ask to talk to someone who knows about hardware and see if they know where you might be able to get bigger ones.
