Am making some cold-frames and want hinges which also separate so that I can lift off the tops completely, Any suggestions? thanks

cheap, but then I don't suppose you need many.
Failing that, some screw eyes and screw hooks to mate with 'em.
Thats it ta. Didn't realise they were actually called 'lift off hinges' or I would have googled!
cheers

Rising butts would be the easy way. They're used on doors to clear a carpet, etc. As the door opens it goes up on a sort of cam. These allow the door to be lifted off as well. On a cold frame it would mean the top would go sideways slightly as you opened it but I doubt this would matter.
