ABSTRACT:
A hinge housing for installation in an opening in a thin sheet wall of a door is provided. The hinge housing has a liner plate for installation along an underside thereof against an inside face of the wall, the liner plate having an opening which generally conforms to the opening in the wall, the liner plate having at least two first locking projections extending from the underside of the plate which can grip an outside face of the wall upon rotation of the lining plate. The hinge housing also has a fastening flange for installation against the upper side of the liner plate, the fastening flange having a cup portion and a flange portion extending radially from a rim of the cup portion, the outside perimeter of the cup portion generally conforming to the opening in the wall, such that when the fastening flange is installed against the liner plate, the flange portion covers the liner plate and the cup portion extends into the opening and through the wall. The fastening flange also has at least two second locking projections extending from the underside of the flange portion, the second locking projections corresponding in number and arrangement with the first locking projections, the second locking projections being engageable with the first locking projections upon rotation of the fastening flange to forcibly retain the first locking projections against the outside face of the wall.
