We need to know how to install cabinet hinges. We first need to know what are the cabinet hinge structures. The cabinet hinge structure includes movable arms, hollow arms, locking devices, cover plates and adjusting bolts. There is a base on the movable arms, and A locking device is provided on the base, and a through cavity matching the base is provided on the hollow arm. The through cavity is designed between the movable arm base and the cover plate, and the locking device is limited to the base of the movable arm. And the connection between the cover and the base is designed with adjusting bolts.
Cabinet hinge installation and connection method hinge structure explanation
We need to know how to install the cabinet hinge, we must first know the cabinet hinge What are the structures? The cabinet hinge structure includes a movable arm, a hollow arm, a locking device, a cover plate and an adjusting bolt. A base is provided on the movable arm, and a locking device is provided on the base, and the hollow arm is provided with a base corresponding to the base. Matching through cavity, the through cavity is designed between the movable arm base and the cover plate, and the locking device is limited to the base of the movable arm, and the connection between the cover plate and the base is designed with an adjusting bolt.
There is also a limited convex plate designed in the cavity of the hollow arm. On the corresponding limited convex plate movable arm, there is a limit groove on the movable arm with a chute. The extension base of the position groove passes through the chute, and the corresponding chute position on the limit groove accommodates a movable limit block and a return spring, and the limit block extends out of the limit groove on the outside of the base , The limit block Shanghai is equipped with a through groove that matches the width of the chute, so the cabinet hinge can choose 360°.
? Cabinet hinge installation steps
? The first step: we When installing the cabinet hinge, determine the size of the cabinet door. After determining the size of the cabinet door, we also determine the minimum margin between the cabinet doors, and the minimum margin of the cabinet door is the type of hinge. To determine (the hinge cup edge distance and the cabinet door thickness to select the value) this is generally included in the cabinet hinge installation manual, you can refer to it to determine the value.
? The second step: we are determining the cabinet hinge After the value, when the hinge is connected, we use the installation measuring board or woodworking pencil to mark the position (generally the drilling margin is about 5 mm), and then use a pistol drill or woodworking hole opener to punch the width of the cabinet door at 3 -5mm or so hinged cup mounting hole, the depth of the drilling is generally about 12mm.
? Step 3: We put the hinge into the hinged cup hole on the cabinet door, and reuse it The self-tapping screw fixes the hinge cup of the hinge. After the hinge is inserted into the hole of the cabinet door, open the hinge, and then put it into the aligned side plate, and then we will use the self-tapping screw to fix the base of the hinge.
? The fourth step: After installing the cabinet hinges, and then opening and closing the cabinet doors, if the effect is not ideal, the hinges can basically be adjusted in six directions, aligned up and down, and the two cabinet doors should be moderately left and right. , The best effect is to debug the cabinet door to the best, and the gap between the cabinet doors after installation is generally 2 mm.
