People are asking

What is a butt hinge used for in a campervan build?

Butt hinges are used on cabinet doors, storage lids, and access panels in campervan conversions. The 50mm size is suitable for lightweight cabinet doors and access hatches made from 12-16mm plywood. Heavy-duty variants suit heavier doors.

Why choose metal over plastic hinges for a campervan?

Metal butt hinges withstand the constant vibration and movement of van life far better than plastic alternatives, which can crack or fatigue over time. Stainless or zinc-plated steel hinges also resist moisture corrosion, which is important in a van environment.

How many hinges do I need per cabinet door?

Two hinges per door is standard for doors up to about 600mm tall. For taller or heavier doors, use three hinges to prevent warping and reduce stress on the fixings. Space them evenly — typically 100-150mm from each end of the door.
