I have a bunch of A fram signs to make and I need a supplier for the pre-made hinges you see on sandwich boards.

not to sound like a smarta$$ but I've seen lots of shops simply use Lowe's long arm and flush hinges. *shrug* I'm sure lots of sign suppliers have them but why not see what your local hardware store sells?

Frankly, I'm surprised not everyone uses the plastic handles.

Don't forget to also buy some chain by the foot while your there so you can screw it to the sides to prevent it from falling flat.
We often just buy the rinky-dink black coated kind.
