How have the hinges held up?

very well, no sign of problems; this is a very heavy duty commercial grade unit.

Wonderfully!! It is exposed to the elements here and gone through a few snow storms already.

Judith the hinges have held up so far , but its still too early to tell after 2 months. I have the mailbox installed on a covered porch so it will not be exposed directly to wet conditions. I am very pleased with the quality and design. However, the mounting hardware/screws DO NOT come with the product. Good Luck!

We have had the mail box for about 6 months it has held up nicely. Hinges are working just fine..

Yes! The hinges are perfectly tight and the package comes with a dual end screwdriver.

Hinges are on top, latches on the bottom. I use a wooden dowel, not included to prop open. YMMV.

The door is the only slight problem. Just keep your drill handy for the hinges.

No. These are molded hinges that are snapped together and so strong they will last forever. I am thoroughly happy with this purchase.

That do have a slight drop. But they swing freely and are not sagging enough that the door rubs againstthe bottom of the unit when closing. Take the time toget the hinges right when you are putting it together. They are pretty sturdy. And just to clarify that sag, I didn't notice, it was the wife that did. When the doors are closed it is not noticeable unless you measure it against something. Ultimately the wife said we'll keep it. So it must not be to bad.

They are thick lucite and appear to be very sturdy. The item bends easily and very smoothly. I believe the hinges are more than adequate for this item.

My husband does not remember any extra hinges, but we have only used it one time.

Yes, no problem. The hinges appear to be of very good quality for the price.

The replacement barn they sent to replace the one with bad hinges was just fine. Still in great shape a year later. No hinge issues at this time after hours of play.

The only visible hardware is the knobs and they can be easily replaced. While the hinges are not visible, at least with the door closed, they could be replaced as well.

I have had mine for a few months. So far it has held up nicely. I can see only one spot where it looks like the lid and the base rubbed up against each other. But the rest is looking very good.

The hinge does eventually wear out over time. At best you'll get maybe a couple months out of the case and have to replace it. I'm already looking to replace mine in less than a year, might look at a different brand and hope it lasts.

yes they do, also it has hinges, not the bendable plastic ones that can break after time.

I purchased mine a year and a half ago and have not had any problems with the hinges - or anything else for that matter. I use it both indoors and outside at least twice weekly (and I really load it up!) and it does a wonderful job. I sincerely hope you can get a problem free replacement and can enjoy yours as much as I do mine.

We have had our barn for about three years now and haven't had any issues with the hinge.
