I may go with some of the more simple marine hinges for the stand doors but magnets may be the perfect solution to the larger doors on the front of the hood since I won’t be opening those too often. Thanks for the suggestionsMarine hinges

I agree magnets are best but I really don’t like taking panels on/off all the time. It makes me procrastinate doing things in the tank.
