Stainless "piano" hinges

[stevebrownell]

Has anyone used stainless paino hinges for hatches? I'm considering adding two access panels to a console I'm building and want a cleaner appearance than off the shelf plastic hatches, so I'm going w. glassed wood, to match the console itself. I can only find these hinges in 6' length, and was interested if anyone has used them for this type of application. Did not know if cutting a hinge would screw it up, or if shorter lengths are made. So far, no luck locating hinges that are in the 24" range. Jamestown Dist. carries the 6' variety for <$20, btw.

Thanks, and yes, pics on the way.
