Antique Solid Brass Entry Door Hinge Half – 3" x 1 ½"

Description :
This antique solid brass entry door hinge half measures 3" high by 1 ½" wide and was once part of a full mortise hinge used on an exterior or heavy interior door. Crafted from solid cast brass, this piece displays the classic rectangular leaf form with three countersunk screw holes and a sturdy barrel knuckle. It is not a lift-off hinge, but rather one half of a fixed-pin hinge assembly, meant to pair with a matching leaf to complete the hinge. The aged brass patina and wear marks reflect decades of use, offering an authentic vintage look ideal for restoration or period-correct repair work.
