Abstract: A hinge construction particularly designed for exterior usage is provided by the present invention. Two planar sections are comprised of complementary land portions and cutaway portions disposed in spaced apart relationship along the length of the hinge. The cutaway portions of one section receive the land portions of the other section. With such configuration only a single thickness of metal separates the hinged member from the mounting member. First and second barrel mounting sections extend in the same direction outwardly away from the respective first and second planar sections. The two barrel mounting sections in turn mount complementary hinge barrels which, when positioned in alignment, receive a hinge pin. As a result of the hinge mounting sections projecting outwardly away from the hinged member and the mounting members, a weather shield is formed to help keep moisture and dirt out of the opening that is closed by the door.
