Common types include butt hinges, butterfly hinges, flush hinges, and piano hinges. Butt hinges are typically used for standard doors, butterfly hinges offer decorative appeal for lighter doors, flush hinges are ideal for lightweight cabinet doors, and piano hinges provide continuous support along the length of doors or lids.
