Hinge for Butterfly Gate That Allows 270 Degree Swing
Question:
Would these PLR1904-Z hinges work for a butterfly gate on the end of a livestock trailer... where the gate would swing roughly 90 degrees to the inside of the trailer and roughly 180 degrees to the outside of the trailer?

Expert Reply:
While we do have a hinge that is going to let you have a gate that swings to the inside of the trailer and to the outside for a 270 degree swing, the hinges you referred to would not allow that type of movement. Instead, you will need what is called a square corner hinge, and you have a couple of different options based on the length and metal construction you want. The following options are below and I have added links to video reviews for you as well.
