Marine Piano Hinge Application

This Taco Metals hinge is built from Type-304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance on boats. It suits doors, large cabinets and hatches that need continuous support along their full length. The polished finish provides a clean appearance on deck or below.

Upgrade From Light-Duty Hardware

The 14-gauge thickness and 40-gauge material offer more rigidity than standard light-duty hinges. Drilled holes on 2-inch centers allow secure fastening without stagger. The jump is worth it when a hatch or cabinet door must stay aligned under frequent use and salt exposure.

Length And Mounting Constraints

The hinge is available in 72-inch lengths only, so the installation must accommodate that fixed size. The 114-inch hole spacing is not adjustable, limiting retrofit flexibility. Builders who need a shorter run or custom hole pattern cannot modify this hinge without cutting and re-drilling.

Questions about this item

What are the exact dimensions and mounting-hole spacing of the 1-1/4 inch by 6 foot stainless piano hinge?

How should the .040 gauge type-304 stainless hinge be fastened and what common error should be avoided?

Use matching stainless screws or rivets through the pre-drilled holes and avoid using carbon-steel fasteners that will cause galvanic corrosion.

Rinse with fresh water after salt exposure and periodically apply a stainless protectant to maintain the polished finish and prevent tea staining.
