About the Offset Strap Hinge
This is a favorite hinge for board and batten shutters. A forged steel strap rides on a cast iron pintle, and the pintle offset sets how far the shutter stands off the wall. The Show Me version is shaped so the strap stays visible when the shutter is open.
John Wright strap hinges pair a forged steel strap with a cast iron pintle and a black powder coat. The pintle offset sets how far the shutter stands off the wall when closed, which is what lets it clear trim and brick mould.
Choosing the offset
Offset is the distance from the mounting surface to the center of the pin. The hinge offset plus the pintle offset must clear any trim, brick mould or siding between the shutter and the wall so the shutter closes flat.
- Flat trim or none: a flat or small-offset hinge on a 3/4" pintle is usually enough.
- Brick mould or thick casing: step up to 1 3/4" or 2 1/4", or use a brick-mount pintle.
- Deep reveals or stone: the longest offsets or an adjustable lag pintle.
