Kettle Stainless Steel Lid Hinge

Well DONE, Sirs! This hinge should be standard issue with Weber Kettle grills. And not the cheap flimsy POS that the Weber CORPORATION would surely substitute - this thing is built to last. Stop thinking about it. Order one now! Took about 5 minutes to install it on my grill. No more di-king around with the hot lid full of smoke while I'm trying to see which side the little hangar is on OR looking for a safe place to put it down. Best part? No more bent lids!. Ever!!! YES!!!!!!

I gave this hinge a good rating because it is built solid. Great design. Easy installation takes about 5 minutes. The only downfall I have with it is I usually turn my cover depending on the way the wind is going to pull heat from one side to the other. Now with the cover fixed imposition I need to turn the entire Grill. If you do not cook like I do then this item will be perfect for you. One thing that needs to be changed is where the bottom 4 bolts go through your grill body. They end up hitting the actually grill inside so don't follow the instructions exactly or you will run into problems. Try to shift up or down a 1/4".

I have three charcoal cookers of different types on my patio with little room to spare. Finding a place to put the lid on my Weber kettle smoker has always been a problem. The little hook on the lid just doesn't work well to hang the lid on the kettle, a design problem for Weber. This item solves that and it is easy to use and very easy to install. I was able to get it installed ahead of a snow storm and use it during the snow. The only reason for the 4 stars vs. 5 is that I do wish it opened a little wider and price is a little high.

There's no better charcoal grill than a Weber, but that damn lid is a pain in the ass. Then I ran across a YouTube video of this hinge and was wowed. I ordered one right away. The installation is tough because the porcelain finish is nearly as hard as glass. That coating is tough to get a drill bit even started in. (Listen to the man. You cannot put a dimple in it to locate the bit) I got the hinge installed and it is awesome. It's sturdy, seals like a champ, locks open, easily releases to close. It's an amazing add on, great material, beautifully welded, and works to perfection. Buy this. You will love it!

Should have bought this years ago. It is great on out Webber kettle grill. No more searching for a place to put the lid when you are flipping meat. Love this. Recommend.

Heavy duty, easy to install, works well. Just wish it opened a couple inches wider. Not a deal breaker for me. Nice product all in all.

This accessory to the weber 22.5 in grill works better than expected and the quality of the parts are very high. When I want to hinge the hood open for manipulating food on the weber its an easy one handed situation. I can just as easily close the lid with one hand. If I want to take the weber grill hood all the way off.....no problem simply remove the pin, raise the hood and reinstall the pin for use later when I want to hinge the webe grill's hood open again. This is not an inexpensive item, but it will easily last through the life of several weber grills. Highly recommended American made product.

I’m All about organizing and this is one more good thing . Installs easily my lid is not going to get banged up lying it down . Many other folks use it !
