Integral reinforcement at the hinge position is provided by 20 x 1mm strips installed top and bottom on the liner face. These ensure durable and long term fixing of intermediate hinges and roller carriers and along with the auto-adhesive bond between the insulation core and steel skins do not require the hinge fixing screw to pass through the internal ply/plies of steel.
