Cabinet Hinge

I am looking for a particular cabinet hinge, but do not know if they have a specific name in the 'trade' so I do not seem to be very successful in finding any on the web.

I have several cabinets on the bedroom wall that have a door that opens upwards.

I am looking for some sort of hinge/rod that that supports the door when open so it stays open rather than it looking to close and knock me on the back of the head everytime I try and put something into the cabinet

Re: Cabinet Hinge

they may be called Sliding Stay Hinges, I remember my parents caravan having them fitted to the overhead stroage,so maybe a camping/caravan palce may be a place to start
