That is fantastically helpful, thanks chaps. The Aceca door is much more solid-looking than the Ace/Cobra one.
Luke - Is the hinge rivetted through the front face of the door, hidden by the padding? Are the rivets pop rivets, pulling through the bare plywood, no washers behind? Simple bit of trimmed hardboard to cover the inside surface?
And could you tell me the dimensions of the continuous hinge please? I have found another old Birmingham company who have been making hinges for over a hundred years, they do chrome on brass piano hinges and if I can work out the right size I'm almost prepared to bet there's an original connection, just like the recent wing nut find!
Really helpful, thanks again.
