Video Transcript for Detailed Breakdown of the Square Corner T-Strap Hinge w/ Reverse Bracket

Today we're going to be taking a look at the square corner hinge with reverse bracket for trailers. This is going to allow for 270 degree door swing. It's made from a very sturdy steel construction. It's going to have a zinc plating on it so it's very strong and durable. It's going to be rust and corrosion resistant. You'll want to mount this on the corner of the trailer to allow for full door swing. It's going to feature a non-removable pin for maximum security right here in the hing. If we take a measurement of the strap width, going this direction edge to edge we're looking at a measurement of around two inches.

If we take a measurement of the strap length, what I'm doing to get this measurement is I'm measuring from the back of the flat side here of the hinge to the end of the strap. You can see that's where we're going to get our 16 inch mark. It's also very close to the center of that non-removable pin out to the end of the strap around 16 inches. Overall length, if I go to the back of the hinge to the end of the strap, we're looking at a measurement a little bit closer to 16 and 1/2, 16 and 5/8, right in that area. Right here on the hinge there's going to be 2 mount holes. These mount holes are going to be separated apart from one another on center, looks to be 3 and 1/4 inches.

The hinge edge to edge that's going to give us a measurement of 4 and 1/2 inches. If we measure this direction, we're looking at a measurement of, from this point here to the back we're looking at about 2 and 1/8 of an inch. The holes on the hinge, those are going to have a diameter of 3/8 of an inch. Then you can see how that allows the unit to swing, so it's got a rotating design. If we take a measurement of the holes here on the strap, these are actually going to be separated on center, so there a hole right here, so center of that hole to center of this hole is 5 and 5/8.

Center of this hole to center to center of this hole is also 5 and 5.8. Then those are going to have a diameter of 5.16 of an inch. That's going to do it for today's look at the square corner hinge with a reverse bracket.

It allows the doors of the trailer to open far enough that they are flat against the trailer sides. Now we can work on the side of a narrow street without worrying about our doors getting torn off!

Perfect. Straps were exactly what we needed to secure the rear doors to our box truck.

I am converting a 5 x 8 cargo trailer into a tear drop type camper. The trailer came with a ramp, which is not practical my use. I wanted to convert the ramp to a side swing door. I ordered the 16" hinge to provide as much support as possible. I built a new frame, re-used the outer skin & trim and installed the door using the hinges. To say I'm happy with the result and how the hinges work is an understatement! The project came out better than I had hoped and the hinges were the perfect choice.

They have been working great. I mounted a 5000 btu window air conditioner in the door and there has been no sagging because the hinges support 13 the width of the door.



by:

This hinge is stronger than the ones I'm replacing. The strap and bracket both fully wrap the hinge pin for extra load bearing. Nicely made!

  • Replacement Strap Hinge for Enclosed Cargo Trailer
    It looks like the closest thing that we have to that design is the Square Corner T-Strap Hinge w/ Reverse Bracket # PLR4040, but if that doesn't work we do have a wide variety of other hinge straps that may work for your application like the part # PLR2216. I have attached a link to our selection of replacement strap hinges for you to check out.

  • Replacement Hinge Options for a Featherlite Horse Trailer
    We have a variety of door hinges that can work for your Featherlite horse trailer, but I wasn't able to find anything related to that part number so I'll need a photo and dimensions from you in order to find something that matches. Some of the more common ones in our linked selection are the following: - 5-1/2" Long x 3-1/4" Wide # PLR104SS - 8" Long x 2" Wide - 180 Degree Rotation # PLR3408 - 16" Long x 2" Wide - 270 Degree Rotation # PLR2216 Feel free to filter through our linked...

  • Mounting Hole Spacing on 16 Inch Polar Trailer Door Corner Hinge
    You can actually see the mounting hole dimensions of the Polar trailer door hinge, part # PLR2216, measured in the video that I linked for you. I went out to the warehouse and measured them again just to verify it as well. Between the two holes on the bracket is 3-1/4 inches. Then the holes on the strap are spaced 5-5/8 inches between each other.

  • Will Polar Hinge # PLR2216 Support a Ramp Door?
    The Square Corner Hinge with Reverse Bracket - Zinc Plated Steel - 16" # PLR2216 are not rated for a weight limit. For a ramp door, I recommend instead using the Ramp Door Hinge - Steel # PLR1902 which is a much thicker metal and a stronger pin. This is designed for that function and needs to be welded in place. The Square corner hinge although easier to install would risk hardware failing as they aren't designed to hold weight beyond the door itself.

  • What Bolts For Mounting Square Corner T-Strap Hinge PLR2216
    Hi Fernando, So different mounting surfaces will require different mounting hardware for the Square Corner T-Strap Hinge w/ Reverse Bracket # PLR2216 . You would source the bolts locally to match the material the surface is made of, and they'd need to simply fit the 3/8" mounting hole diameter.
