Installation method skills of damping hinge

The damping hinge is a kind of hinge, which is composed of three parts such as a support and a buffer. Its essence is to provide a way to use the buffering properties of liquids to help us. In our daily life, it can be said that damping hinges can be seen everywhere, such as wardrobe door, bookcase, wine cabinet, locker and other furniture door connections. Although it is a common thing in our lives, I don't know if everyone has installed it by hand. Do you know the specific installation method of the damping hinge?


There are basically three different installation methods


1, full cover

The sash doors all cover the side panels of the cabinet, with a gap between the two so that the door can be opened safely. Straight arm 0 mm


2, half cover

In this case, the two doors share a side panel. There is a minimum total clearance required between them. The covering distance of each door is correspondingly reduced, and hinges with curved hinge arms are required. Middle curve (9.5 mm)


3, built-in

In this case, the door is inside the cabinet, next to the side panel of the cabinet. It also requires a gap so that the door can be safely opened. Requires very hinged hinges. Daqu (16 mm)


Hints for hinge installation:


1, minimum clearance

Minimum clearance refers to the minimum distance between the sides of the door when opening the door. The minimum clearance is determined by the C distance, door thickness, and hinge type. When the door edge is rounded, the minimum clearance is reduced accordingly. The minimum clearance required can be looked up from each different hinge correspondence table.


2, the minimum clearance of the half-cover door

When two doors share a side panel, the required total clearance should be twice the minimum clearance so that the two doors can be opened at the same time.


3, C distance

C distance refers to the distance between the edge of the door and the edge of the hinge cup hole. The maximum C size available for each hinge varies with different hinge models. The larger the C distance, the smaller the minimum gap.


4.Door cover distance


Cardiac coverage distance refers to the distance that the door covers the side panels.


5. Clearance

Clearance refers to the distance from the outside of the door to the outside of the cabinet in the case of a full cover; in the case of a half cover, the distance between the two doors; in the case of an inner door, the clearance refers to the distance from the outside of the door to the inside of the cabinet distance.


6.Number of hinges required for each door

The width of the door, the height of the door, and the material quality of the door are the determining factors for the number of hinges required for each door. In actual operation, the various factors that appear vary from situation to situation. Therefore, the number of hinges listed above can only be used as a reference. When the situation is unknown, a trial is recommended. For stability reasons, the distance between the hinges should be as large as possible.


X = distance between hinges (this picture is the number of hinges used when using 19 mm thick particleboard with a specific weight of 750 kg per cubic meter)


Probably most people come to install the furniture when they buy the furniture. They have never installed it by themselves. However, I would like to say that it will inevitably be encountered at home when it is not working. Such a 'trivial matter', do you have to ask a dedicated staff to come to our service and repair? If you can install it yourself, wouldn't it be very easy Already.
