Are you looking for more information on how to cut your continuous hinges to custom lengths?  There are two main ways to have that done.  Shearing is a method that's usually more cost efficient especially if the overall length you're trying to achieve is an equal multiple of the knuckle length.  You can also shear hinges in lengths that aren't an equal multiple of the knuckle length, but the end knuckle can get deformed and mashed in the process.  Another popular way to cut hinges is through saw cutting.  This process is a little more time consuming which translates to more costly, but the cut is much more precise, and the length can be any length you desire without worrying about deforming the knuckle.
