Piano Hinge

[Ellestad]

I need two short piano hinges, approx. 24 inches. I'm thinking about sawing a 48 inch hinge in half. Will I have any problem with the pin staying put? The hinges will be used vertically.

Thanks

With a good quality hinge, you shouldn't have any trouble ... it's done all the time.

I cut a piano hinge in two and tried to drive the pin out but couldn't.

We saw them up all the time with no problems. I don't know what holds that thing in but it won't come out.
