Solid Brass Continuous Hinges-- 60" long
      Screws are not supplied. This is because the original screws would have come
      through the wood of the lid of the piano so that they almost reached the other
      side of the wood. If we sent screws that were slightly too long for your piano,
      they would come through the top of the piano- Horrible thought. So, YOU
      must take your old screws to a hardware store, and look for screws exactly
      like yours. Do not get them slightly longer to pick up more wood. Instead,
      fill the screw hole half full of tooth pick pieces and carpenter's glue to tighten
      loose screws.
      1-1/16th inch wide when opened. .040 gage. Holes drilled and countersunk.
      Satin Brass Finish                                                                                                       SH565B             $ 66.25

                    Nickel                                                                                                          SH565AN          $ 357.00

Old and New Part Numbers and Prices of the above Piano Hinges

Minimum order applies.
Single hinges not available without other items being ordered.
You must order using the New Part Number

Solid Brass Hinge Pins-
      How will you know what size to order if you lost all your pins? Suggestion: Find a friend who
      has a detailed set of drill bits. Slip drills into the hole in your hinge until one is good and snug.
      Next, mic the drill bit to find the thousands. For that trick, you owe me a cup of coffee :-)
