Door Hinge Colour

Post by Admin » Tue, 08 Jun 2010, 7:58 pm

OK peeps, who's got some door hinges that haven't been repainted?

What colour were they from new? Were they black? :?

Whoever's repainted mine did a good job of removing the old paint underneath. I know they shouldn't be blue like mine were. :roll:

Mine appear to be black, I don't think they've been re-painted!

Mine are black, if you ignore the rust.

Ours were black but we think they were repainted. We have repainted them silver at the moment.
