Good info! Cheers!
Currently they are sat under a large work bench, tweets pointing up toward a piece of bracing, the best sounding place to hear these is sat in my scrap metal pile, its a workshop setup.
Beefy piano type hinge + chain at the top is a neat idea, simple. I Have no budget, a welder and some scrap angle iron, drill and some hilti bolts

That's a bit of an oversimplification. Rear ported would make them a very bad candidate for proximity to walls or ceilings but the reflection from each surrounding plane amplifies bass by 3db, so a corner near the ceiling is roughly 9db increase. Proximity affects the calculation obviously.
Overall sounds like a bad idea but i would probably make some kind of rest for the back lower edge maybe connect with a hinge and use chain to the wall at the top so I could change the angle.
I wouldn't ever actually do that though, seems a better choice to get a pair of speakers designed to be wallmounted.
