Still holding up

These are great hinges. I have purchased these several times, utilizing them when constructing Dutch barn stall doors and large shed doors. These hinges dont sag, the zinc has been in the weather for a year with no rust unpainted. Dont waste money on other hinges. This is your best choice at a low cost.



by:

Perfect fit and great quality product

These where a direct replacement for what was originally on my trailer. They bolted right on.

Correct replacement for original hinges that broke. Seem to work well as long as keep then lubricated.

Still ok, wish they had grease fittings for better lubrication.



by:

Great quality. Both the stationary and moving strap are welded at the seams. Plating is top quality. Much better quality than the hinge that its replacing. I may have to buy more to improve the look of the other hinges.

Excellent quality hinge, replaced my old rusty hinges off of my snowmobile trailer, I could notice the quality in the etrailer hinges immediately.

    I reached out to my contact at Polar, manufacturers of the # PLR3408 T-Strap Hinges and I was able to confirm that you can definitely use these to add the folding ability to your wooden ramps.

  • Is a 90 Degree Hinge Rotation on a T-Strap Hinge Normal on a Trailer
    The hinge rotation is going to depend on the design of the T-strap hinge. For example, the Square Corner T-Strap Hinge w/ Reverse Bracket # PLR4040 is capable of a 270 degree rotation based on its design. The # PLR3408 only allows for 180 degrees of rotation. Unless something else is blocking them or limiting the movement, it is likely that 90 degrees is the limit of the hinges you currently have. I have attached a link to all of our available T-strap hinges if you would like to try to...

  • Why Doesn't Polar Hinge # PLR3408-PS Have a Weight Capacity
    Polar does not give specific weight capacities for their hinges as the dimensions of the door would make a specific number too difficult to state as well as different applications might carry the weight differently. Like if you had a 20 lb door that was 2 feet wide vs. a 20 lb door that was 5 feet wide. The hinges would have more stress on them with the wider door due to the additional leverage. You'll have to use your best judgment but for a boat hatch two of the # PLR3408-PS would work...

These hinges are stainless steel for increased life and are stronger than the aluminum hinges you currently use. They are also have a larger mounting pattern than the Butt Hinge # PLR1005 you are looking at as a replacement. This will ensure the hinge has sufficient surface area on the door to support the weight of the door.
