Hinges are fascinating things. Hinges open doors. People give credit to the doorknob, or the foot in the door, or the presence of anything on the other side of a door that opens it, but really, what determines whether or not a door will open? Hinges.
Without hinges a door is a prop, a plank, a board, which, without working hinges, is an obstacle. You might be able to move it out of the way, but it's not as easy as opening a door.
I like the expression that this or that "hinges" on a decision. That's the kind of decision that makes or breaks a possibility. Hinges need to be even and well adjusted. A good decision hinges on the same things.
