What is hinge


Cabinet Hinge


Hinge is mechanical bearing that connects two solid objects


Type of Hinge


The hinges are mainly divided into stainless steel hinges, steel hinges, iron hinges, nylon hinges, and zinc alloy hinges according to the material classification; there is also a hydraulic hinge (also known as Damping hinge), the damping hinge is characterized by a buffer function when the cabinet door is closed, which greatly reduces the noise generated when the cabinet door is closed and collides with the cabinet body


The hinges commonly used for cabinet doors can be divided into three categories according to the hinge curvature: Full overlay hinges , half overlay hinges and inset hinges .


Full overlay hinges are for individual cabinets or the cabinets on either end of a run of cabinets.


Half overlay hinges are intended for pairs of doors in the middle of a run of cabinets, where two doors have their hinges mounted on opposite sides of a shared middle partition.


Inset Cabinet Doors are set into the cabinet frame and fit flush with the face of the cabinet when closed.


How to choose hinge


1. Look at the weight of the material


The hinge quality is poor, and the cabinet door is easy to lean forward and back after a long time of use, and loose and sag. The cabinet hardware of the big brands are almost all made of cold-rolled steel, stamped and formed at a time, with a thick feel and smooth surface. Moreover, due to the thick coating on the surface, it is not easy to rust, strong and durable, and has a strong load-bearing capacity. Inferior hinges are generally welded with a thin iron sheet and have little resilience. After a long time, they will lose their elasticity, causing the door to close Not strict, even cracked.


2. Open and close cabinet doors when purchasing, to experience the soft feel


The hinges with different pros and cons have different hand feelings. The hinges with excellent quality are relatively soft when opening the cabinet door, and will automatically rebound when closed to 15 degrees. Consumers can open and close cabinet doors when purchasing ,to experience the feel.


3. View details


The details can determine whether the product is good, and thus confirm whether the quality is outstanding. The hardware used in high-quality wardrobe hardware has a thick hand feel and a smooth surface, which even achieves a silent effect in design. Inferior hardware is generally made of cheap metal such as thin iron sheet, cabinet doors stretch jerky, and even have a harsh sound.


In addition to visual inspection and smooth and smooth surface of the hinge, the hinge spring's return performance should be noted. The quality of the reeds also determines the opening angle of the door panel. A good quality reed can make the opening angle exceed 90 degrees.


4. Tips


The hinge can be opened 95 degrees, and the two sides of the hinge can be pressed hard by hand to observe that the supporting spring piece is not deformed or broken, and the very strong one is a qualified product. Inferior hinges have a short service life and are easy to fall off, such as cabinet doors and hanging cabinets falling off, mostly because the hinge quality is not close enough.


Cautions when using hinges


1. Wipe gently with a soft dry cloth. Do not use chemical cleaners or acidic liquids. If there are black spots on the surface that are difficult to remove, use a little kerosene


2. It is normal to have noise after long time use. In order to ensure a long-lasting smooth and silent mute, lubricating oil can be added regularly every 2-3 months for maintenance.


3. Prevent heavy objects and sharp objects from hitting and scratching.


4. Do not pull hard during transportation, and damage the hardware of the furniture connection.
