Bean End Hinges

A pair of our rustic iron cottage style hinges rounded bean end T hinges. Matching cottage fixing screws are provided and the traditional hinge plate is pre-drilled for easy fixing. This pair of reproduction antique hinges are 9 inches in length and ideally the hinge should cover approximately half the width of the door.

Size

The decorative hinge leaf is 22cm long. Our rustic wrought iron cottage style hinges are all hand forged, so though similar will not be identical. Each piece is hand finished and given a beeswax coating. All our hand-forged products are carefully aged for an authentic look.

Forging Our Hinges

All of our hinges are hand forged.  The hinges are hand forged in the traditional way on the anvil and the finished hinge will show these forging marks. Once each hinge has been forged it has to be dressed. To dress the hinge, it is first hand cleaned and hand polished. Once this stage has been completed the hinge is dipped in natural beeswax.

Beeswax

Treating each hinge with beeswax gives the iron better qualities. Firstly, the wax adheres to the surface of the iron by soaking into the tiny pores on the surface. This helps the wax to form a sealing coat over the hinge thus preventing excessive rust. The second thing the wax does for the hinge is that it will even out the colour.

A full set of fixing screws will be provided with your order.
