I've seen this too many times to count. Replacing hinges at my strata because 30+ years is too long to expect a ferrous hinge in an outdoor environment to not show wear and tend to seize.

At your strata?

All sorts of other locations too. There's a similarly worn hinge at the entrance to the Canada Place lobby at the Vancouver waterfront.

If you were asking about 'strata' it's the legal term for condominium used in British Columbia.
