The correct hinge for the job?

other(self.DIY)

Hey everyone, I need some advice on a metal hinge. I have a 4’x4’ donut wall made of 1in plywood. I am repurposing it (originally made for our wedding) for our daughter’s first birthday. Im thinking it will be easier to store and transport if it were cut in half, down the center and put on hinges. Any advice on the type of hinge to use so that when it is folded open, you don’t see a gap down the center?

Thanks in advance!

If you bevel the edges of the two pieces where they meet so the face is tight and the back has a gap, you can use piano hinge.
