More About This Section
What Are Continuous Hinges?
SPEP continuous hinges are characterized by their longer-than-normal length and narrow design. Like traditional hinges, our piano hinges feature overlapping knuckles. However, they run the entire length of doors or lids.
This unique design feature enables our industrial piano hinges to support an increased load and provide exceptional durability.
Additionally, industrial piano hinges can be thinner than their traditional counterparts, improving your door or lid's aesthetic while reducing the likelihood of clearance or space issues.
SPEP hinges are available in a variety of different knuckle lengths and thicknesses. If you’re unsure what length or thickness would best fit the demands of your project, one of our experienced sales team members would be happy to lend a hand.

Are you looking for a narrow hinge to prevent rubbing adjacent objects or supports? If so, we offer hinges as thin as 0.025 inches. Is durability your top concern? We have hinges up to 0.188 inches thick, tough enough to withstand nearly any application.
