You used to be able to go to the hardware store and ask the man about a
barn
hinge and the owner could tell you what he had, and discuss alternative in
a
knowledgeable way. Of course, that corner hardware store has been driven
out
of business by Wal-Mart.
Actually, small hardware stores are thriving around here (Rochester NY).
There's been a huge backlash against Wal Mart, the BORG and a couple of
others.
