Decoration must see: cabinet hardware how to choose

Cabinet hardware selection Cabinet hardware accessories are one of the important components of modern kitchen furniture, and most of the functions of the cabinet need hardware support. Commonly referred to as hardware accessories are hinges, slides, damping, pneumatic support, hanging yards, adjusting feet, skirting boards and other seven kinds. Use appropriate hardware accessories to improve the overall quality of the cabinet and extend the life of the cabinet. It has a very important role. At present, the top manufacturers of hardware on the market include: blum, hetich, glass, etc. The hardware accessories are trustworthy.
1. Hinge: It is the most important hardware accessory of the cabinet. According to statistics, the cabinet doors must be switched 100,000 times in 10 years! Therefore, the quality of the hinges is very important for the normal opening and closing of the doors. There are two indicators to measure the quality of hinges. One is structural strength. The standard is whether or not to open and close 100,000 times under a load of 75 pounds. The other is the corrosion resistance of the surface, and the indicator is whether it can withstand 48 hours of corrosion after salt spray. In addition, the hinges are divided into three types: ordinary type, ordinary quick type, and luxury quick type. They have great differences in the way of installation and adjustment of the installation position. Some quick-install hinges can adjust front and rear, up, and down, and left and right sides of the door by not adjusting the screws and adjusting the adjustment screws on the hinges. This improves the efficiency of installation and standardizes the operation quality of the installation.

2. Slides: The importance of drawer slides in cabinets is second only to hinges, and they are mainly used in drawers and larans. The slide rails used in the cabinets are mainly three types: common bottom type, metal side type and luxury all-inclusive type. The appearance, performance and price difference of the three are all very obvious. The common undercarriage type slide rail has a simple structure and a low price. The drawer side boards need to be made of wood boards. The drawer width should not exceed 600mm during production. The metal side plate type slide rail structure is similar to the former, because its own structure has been provided with both sides of the drawer steel plate. The appearance is more refined. It is also more durable and more affordable than its predecessors. Luxurious all-inclusive drawer slides with built-in patented pulleys. The noise during sliding is extremely low and the drawer load is heavy. And the heavier the more slippery. The inner side of the foot is curved, there is no health corner, easy to hygienic clean, full pull-out design, making the contents of the drawer stored at a glance. Easy to pick and place directly.
3. Damping: The main purpose of the design of the damping product is to reduce the impact force of the door panel and the cabinet body, prolong the service life of the door panel, reduce the noise during the kitchen operation, and create a quiet and comfortable indoor environment. There are three ways to achieve the damping effect: First, the hydraulic damping. The representative product of this construction is the EKA damper door closer imported from Italy. It will cause oil leakage after a period of use, and lose its damping effect after a period of time. Most of the domestic cabinet suppliers that value quality are no longer used. The second is the silicone oil matrix. Its representative product is BLUM's luxury state damping drawer, its damping is stable, and it will intelligently achieve damping effect according to the strength of the operation, but at present, there is no such closed door on the market. The third is air pressure damping. The representative product of this method is Hettich's damping drawer. When the force is slightly larger, the drawer loses its damping effect. If it is used improperly, the cylinder will be damaged and the damping effect will be completely lost. The fourth is the mechanical spring-type damping. Door closers and drawers are all damped in this way. This method is stable, has no aging, and is reliable in quality. Its representative product is Hettich's damper door closer.

4. Supporter: The cabinet supporter is divided into upturned type, panned uplift type, vertical translation uplift type, folded upturn type according to the upturned form; it is divided into common type and heavy support according to the weight of the support door panel. type. The common type of support used in the current market is pneumatic support and damped pneumatic support. The supporting force of the single pneumatic support is 80 Newtons, the width of the cabinet door is <= 600mm, the door of the height <= 400mm uses 1 support; the width of the cabinet door is between 600-900mm, the height is <= 500mm, and 2 supports are used. If the door width is more than 900mm or the height is more than 500, heavy support is required. Support providers are SUSPA in Germany, HUWLL in Italy, etc. Their products have long been tested in the market and are trustworthy.

5. Hanging yards: Accessories used in cabinets and cabinets, due to the safety performance of the products directly affected, so before and after experiencing three generations of improvement, the first generation of mounted ABS engineering plastic hanging yards, fixed by self-tapping screws and side plates , It affects the appearance of the wall cabinet, and its load-bearing performance is poor. Most of the cabinet suppliers have already been eliminated. The second generation is the concealed steel hanging code. The main feature is that the installation is hidden between the back wall of the hanging cabinet and the wall, and does not affect the hanging. The appearance of the cabinet has been improved, and the load bearing capacity has been improved. The weight of the single bearing is 65KG. The third-generation steel concealed hanging code is based on the second generation product. The connection and fixing with the solid side plate, and the installation of the hanging piece have undergone process innovation. , And strengthen the treatment of the site, the single bearing weight 70KG; the main brands are Germany Hettich, CAMAR, Spain INDEX and so on.

6, adjust the feet: adjust the feet have PVC and ABS adjustment feet two. PVC is cheap. Often made of recycled plastic. Load bearing performance is poor. The adjustment foot made of ABS engineering plastic is sturdy and durable. Load bearing performance is good. Can more effectively support the weight of the entire cabinet.

7, baseboard: Baseboard is divided into wooden skirting board, PVC skirting board and aluminum skirting board three. Some manufacturers use the corner scraps left in the cabinet to make wood skirting boards to reduce costs. However, due to the close distance between the skirting board and the ground, wooden materials tend to absorb moisture and become damp. After a period of use, the wooden skirting board will become "fat" and rotten. Both the PVC foot board and the aluminum skirt board are recognized by the experts and not only waterproof, moisture, mold, rust, but also beautiful and durable. In particular, the aluminum skirting board is almost never damaged.
