Purchase cabinet hinges

Hinges are the most commonly used parts in cabinet hardware, and they are also the part where you can experience the quality of cabinets the most. The kitchen is an area that is frequently used in life. The number of openings of cabinet doors can be as many as several or even tens of thousands of times, so the hinge is really important. Since a high-quality hinge can guarantee you a high-quality life, you must first know 'what is a good hinge'. The following editor will teach you how to buy hinges.

L-shaped cabinet

Generally speaking, in addition to accurately connecting the cabinet and the door panel, the hinge also bears the pressure from the door panel. And keep the door from deforming, otherwise the cabinet door will 'crook' after using it for a period of time. Simply put, the surface of the hinge is generally very smooth and slippery to the touch, because the surface is rust-proofed and the hinges are made of stainless steel. Therefore, when opening a new cabinet door, you need to force it to open or close it. Hinges are generally cushioned, even if they are opened and closed at will, they will not damage the cabinet.

First, take a few more glances

See if the hinges are roughly the same. Many different hinges are black here and yellow. That is because the plating is unstable and the plating layer is thin. It is easy to rust, and the real hinge should also be plated with acid copper. You can draw a knife with artistic force to see if you can see the yellow copper layer. Another more intuitive way is to look inside the hinge cup. Generally, the hinge cup is recessed. This is also the most difficult place to plate. If the cup shows The black water performance is the same or the iron color can be seen, which proves that the electroplating layer is very thin and there is no copper plating. If the color and luster in the cup is close to other parts, it will be OK.

Second, Dora A few times

Hold the iron cup with the hinge, and slowly close the hinge as if closing the door. Remember to be slow. If you feel that the hinge is smooth and not obstructed, you can even try a few more smoothly. Then the hinge product is qualified initially. If you find that there is obstruction or noise in the middle, or even both, then you have to be careful about whether the hinge has quality problems. After installing the door, press down slightly hard to see how the hinge is stressed. If it is easy to sink and it is more serious, then be careful that the door panel will appear asymmetry in the future.

Third, try the screws

If the hinge screws are not good, they will make mistakes frequently. For example, the sliding of the tail screws will cause the cabinet door to separate from the cabinet body. Usually you have to determine whether the screw can withstand the test. You can take a screwdriver and try the adjusting screw of the hinge and the fastening screw at the end of the hinge a few more times to see if it is easy to slip. If it is easy, pay attention. Check whether the thread of the screw is clear. Generally, poor screw workmanship and materials are poor, and the threads are messy.
