Where can I find reproduction hinges for my 40s-era kitchen cabinets?
I have found that Lee Valley Tools is a great source of all kinds of cabinet hardware. A large part of their business comes from amateur and professional woodworkers. They carry all sorts of tools, supplies, and hardware specifically for these clients. If they don’t carry an exact reproduction of what you are looking for, there’s a good chance one of their products would do the job. They have stores in several cities in Canada, with the main office in Ottawa, where I live. They publish several catalogs each year, one of which is dedicated to their hardware products. You can request a catalog from their on-line store, which can be found at http://www.leevalley.com/ (browse under “Hardware” or “Catalog Request”). They ship world-wide, although a few of their products cannot be shipped to the US, because of US customs import restrictions.
