Does anyone have a favourite brand/source for door hardware? I need to buy 3 sets of T-Hinges for new FLB doors for the sheds and I want something good quality that isn't going to wobble all over the place.
Good quality T-Hinges

hook and band hinges. Far better
I get the galvanised ones and paint before fitting.
A good tip is to drop two or more stainless washers over the pin before dropping the hinge on. This prevents the hinge parts from rubbing together, causing wear, squeaking and rubbing off the paint and galvanising so they rust. If you grease the washers they will swing easily.

whilst the doors will be fine as you have 3x70mm ish rails to screw to
take note off the frame the hinge will screw into as "T" work fairly good with 18mm ish timbers chunkier hinges can need say 30-45mm dependent on design so iff you shed walls inside are clad bigger hinges may require added timber for the fixings to fix too
