Expando with piano hinge

I have a 1971 skyline buddy with a living room expando. I'm installing a new plank floating floor and just discovered the piano hinge when I removed the old carpeting. The expando is nice and solid and I'm trying to figure out how to address the hinge...it's really kind of cool in a way, so I'm considering leaving it exposed, but i want to remove the two piece hinge one piece at a time, install the planks, then reinstall the hinge over the top, then do the second half. Will this cause any problems with the expando moving while I do this?
