For those that are using the hidden oil door hinge from non-stop, how 

did you secure the hinge pin?

Shorten the pin about 1/4".  Then pinch the hinge pin eyes a little at the tips,  or just drill through them an safety wire.

Install a longer pin and bend the ends...

I didn't want to bend both ends in case I wanted to remove the door at 

some point.  I was thinking of bending just one end and safety wiring 

the bent end to something?  Maybe a hole drilled in the eyelet as David 

mentioned.

I bent 1 end at 90 degrees and the other at ~10 degrees.  It's been removed 4-5 times for various reasons including paint.... No issues...  Just bend it back straight and pull it out!
