 Topic: Hinges for access panelsPosted: 08 Jul 2014 at 4:45pm |

I want to add some hinges to the wooden access panels underneath the dinette seats on my R178 to make things easier to retrieve.
Has anyone had success doing this with a particular type or size of hinge? If so, can you share what you did? Thanks, Cody91 |

Yes I have, I used I/2" plywood and self closing overlap cabinet hinges.

Marwayne,
Thanks for sending the pic. I was thinking about adding the hinges to the plywood covers underneath the dinette cushions. Do you have a picture of that you can share? Cody91 |

Cool upgrade! I would love to do this with my 178. Storage must be a lot easier with these.
