A-D Door Hinges

I need hinges for my 54. I have found several places that sell them. The price varies quite a bit. I want the "Best" hinge. Are there different manufacturers of the hinges or do they all come out of the same factory? Does anyone have a "Best" opinion of a brand/vendor?

Best hinges are the stock ones and they are easy to rebuild, two bronze bushings and the pin.

Re: A-D Door Hinges

My hinges are actually fine. It is the sheet metal that is mangled. The stamped sheet metal that covers the hinge mount is damaged on all four of my hinges. I have NO idea why. Thank You for the link. I am bookmarking it. I still think I would like to put new ones on. Maybe I will just buy one to replace the worst hinge and compare it to the stock one. I would still like to purchase the best one made.
