(Google search image, not mine)…
So, I'm thinking of building a Farmstand similar to this.
But, I want to make that front awning collapsible, for when the farmstand is closed.
I lack the vocabulary to look up the appropriate hinges to bear a horizontal load, perpendicular to the ground.
In my mind, it would also have hinged 2×4 supports on each side holding it up.
If this isn't a horrible idea, could someone point me in the right direction?
(And if it is a terrible idea, let me know gently?)
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Would doors you can close serve the same purpose?
I’m in a windy valley, I would definitely have to secure anything on hinges. Maybe keep that in mind with the design!
I think the hinge you are looking for are Vertical Swing Lift hinges.
I hope you get some good responses, I am wanting to do the same for eggs and honey this summer, and haven’t really came up with a design I like so far. Happy Homesteading!
Well, you might want to get some coolers and a lawn chair to sit on and relax during your down time. Maybe find two good buddies to drink with while you relax. Pitter patter.
Watch Letterkenny for proper operational instruction
