Hey forum just a quick one. Can anyone suggest where I might find a hinge for an access panel? I need the panel to open to 90 degrees then lock open in that position until I release the hinge to close it again.

In my mind I know exactly what I need I just don't know what it is called.

The panel will have regular hinges on it in the center positions and on the left and right sides of the panel the locking mechanism will open up kinda like a knee joint when you go from squatting position to standing up. Then after it goes past 90 degrees it locks in place.

Bad explanation I know haha. Im really struggling with this though. What is this type of mechanism called? Anyone?

Thx

Good L*rd!

That must be nigh on the first time the OP has been able to answer their own question before hundreds of Funsters have sorted it for them! 👍 Well done.:notworthy2:
