My bathroom cabinet hinges are giving up the ghost. They are similar to kitchen cupboard hinges but one end is a plastic circular piece that fits into a hole on one side with the metal link and adjustments the other. The plastic has become brittle and snapped against the pressure of the metal part.

In short I need to know where I can find this type of hinge. If anyone can advise I would bemost grateful.

Many thanks Surykata and Saltytom - tried B&Q, right size wrong type (not enough crank). Forgot about Bernards - I love that shop - will try them tomorrow.

No joy today I am afraid so that's it for the local area. Internet my only bet now unless I can find an engineering place to sort it out.
