    Default Transom (fanlight) hinge

    Hello.
    Looking at installing the transoms that I have made. What sort of hinges? I have 11 to install, and they are just basic glass and painted timber.
    Not looking for anything fancy, not you beaut openers etc, just a stay and a hinge.
    I want them to open at the bottom.
    Any ideas.?
    Thanks in advance.

    The fanlights in the Victorian home I used to have pivoted in the middle. I guess it depends a bit on your moulding profiles and if they will be within in easy reach. I imagine normal butt hinges would work or you could use some like the Whitco awning/hopper window casement stays.
