Industrial Body Hinges

McNaughtans industrial body hinges are designed for side doors, canopies, drop sides and other moving components on trucks, trailers, semi-trailers, buses and specialist vehicle bodies. The range includes flat, offset, long and compact models, available in zinc-plated steel or stainless steel to suit different operating conditions and levels of exposure.

How to choose an industrial hinge

Before selecting a part, check the plate dimensions, hole positions, pin diameter and opening direction. You should also consider the size and weight of the door, how frequently it is used and the working environment. For wet areas, refrigerated bodies or applications that require frequent washing, stainless steel provides greater resistance to corrosion.

  • Confirm the dimensions and mounting-hole pattern.
  • Check whether you need a flat, offset or drop-side hinge.
  • Choose between zinc-plated and stainless steel finishes.
  • Verify the available space and opening movement.

Frequently asked questions

Which finish should I choose?

Zinc plating is suitable for many general applications. Stainless steel is recommended where there is moisture, regular outdoor exposure or frequent cleaning.

How can I check compatibility?

Compare the dimensions, mounting holes and hinge geometry with the part already installed. If you are unsure, send us photographs and measurements so we can help identify the appropriate reference.
