Hi,

Can you help me determine who makes these hinges?

http://www.hardwaresource.com/Store_ViewProducts.asp?Cat=1437

(The seller would not identify them for me.)

I am just hoping to find a better price... This place is charging
$13.18 per pair while similar hinges sell for $2.99 a pair here
(http://doitbest.com/Cabinet+hinges-National+Mfg.-model-N213538-
doitbest-sku-215788.dib).

Since you're not going to need an exact match, just find something
similar at a price you like. I've had good luck finding hinges on
eBay. If, for some reason, you need to find that exact hinge, search
using the dimensions - .059" (or whatever the leaf thickness was)
can't be that common.

While the $13 may be inflated, be sure the $2.90 are truly the same. Cheap
hinges are often cheaper materials that don't hold up as well over time.
Lee Valley has them from 90¢ to $38 a pair.

This will give you an idea of how much prices can vary with quality
