Common questions
When should I choose 2" loose pin hinges over 1.5"?
When the scenery and timber suit a larger leaf for fixing. Both sizes break down the same way — pull the pin.
Can I replace the pin?
Yes. The pin can be replaced with hinge pin wire.
Are screws included?
No — choose screws to suit your material and thickness.
Do they have a load rating?
Rosco doesn’t publish one. Size the hinges and fixings to the scenery and have load-bearing work checked.
Choose hinges and fixings to suit the size and weight of the scenery, and have structural or load-bearing work checked by a competent person. Rosco does not publish load ratings for these hinges. Information is a guide only.
