This hinge was just what I was looking for to replace the OEM hinge on my toy hauler ramp door. The only non performance part was the freight being slower than normal because of Covid 19. The freight companies did not do any damage to the hinge so all is good. etrailer is a great on-line parts supplier.

See what our Experts say about this Polar Hardware Trailer Door Hinges
- Recommended Continuous Hinge Used for Ramp On Wells Cargo TrailerThe widest continuous hinge we offer is the Continuous Steel Hinge part # PLR844 which measures 5" wide overall, so 2-1/2" for each side. If this will work for you then great but if not then I am afraid we would not have any other like alternatives.
view full answer... - Could Polar Continous Hinge # PLR844 be Trimmed to Length and have Install Holes DrilledWe don't have exactly what you need, but you could take the Continuous Hinge # PLR844, cut it to length, and then drill the holes needed as an option. This does not have a stated weight capacity.
view full answer... - Does Continuous Hinge PLR844 Having A Load Rating?I reached out to Polar who makes the Continuous Hinge - 8' Long x 5" Wide - Steel # PLR844 you were looking at does not have a weight capacity, but my contact there did mention if you are concerned that you can weld the knuckle on both ends which will keep the pin from being able to move which is the main failure point of a continuous hinge. The only way to know for sure if the # PLR844 will be strong enough is to install it, as hinges are not tested for specific loads due to quite a few...
view full answer... - Replacement 8 Foot Long Trailer Ramp Door Hinge OptionI took a look at what we have, and the closest I was able to find to what you need is the: -3" Wide Continuous Hinge # PLR843. This is a continuous hinge that measures 7' (84") long, and is 3"wide. Consequently, we also carry the: -5" Wide Continuous Hinge # PLR844, which has the 96" length you need, however this hinge is 2" wider at 5".
view full answer... - 96 Inch Wide Redline Enclosed Trailer Ramp Spring Recommendation for a 8x16 ft Homestead TrailerThe Enclosed Trailer Ramp Spring # CB250D96SHD that you referenced would be great to help you with the heavy door that is on your 8 foot by 16 foot homestead trailer. This spring is 96 inches long and should work well for you since your trailer is 8 feet (96 inches) long. For the hinge, I recommend the Continuous Hinge - Steel - 5" Wide - 96" Long # PLR844.
view full answer... - Do Marlboro Continuous Hinges Come In 48" Or 96" LengthsThe stainless steel options of the Marlboro hinges only come in 72" like the # MA94ZR. You could cut this down to 48" to make it work with your trailer though. There are 96" length options but they are both steel and come in 6" wide with a 1/2" pin diameter # MA32VR or 5" wide with a 3/8" pin diameter # PLR844.
