The cabinets are not easy to use. In addition to the cabinets, door panels and countertops, which are related to the 'face engineering', they are also closely related to the cabinet
Hardware that is hidden inside but can play a big role.
According to the author's understanding, many consumers are attracted by styles and colors while neglecting hardware when purchasing cabinets. Cabinet hardware plays an important role in the comfort, quality and longevity of its use, so you should not ignore these seemingly small and critical components when you purchase.
Hinge: the most tested
Experts said that the cabinet door should be switched many times every day. The hinge should not only connect the door panel of the cabinet, but also bear the weight of the door panel. The high-quality hinge will open and close more than ten thousand times in the case of the door panel with a weight of more than ten kilograms to ensure the door panel. Don't sink.
The opening and closing effect and durability of the hinge are basic requirements. Secondly, the adjustability: up and down, left and right, front and rear adjustable range is ± 2mm; opening angle should be above 90 degrees, and can be stopped at any angle, automatically return to close at 15 degrees, and have certain corrosion resistance And security.
Tip: Some cheap hinges are very laborious and can only be used in two poses, either closed or fully developed, and cannot be stopped in the middle. It is best not to buy such a hinge.
Hanging code: bearing capacity is the key
In the cabinet hardware, the hanging cabinet pendant is the main force supporting the hanging cabinet. The hanging piece is fixed on the wall surface, and the lifting code is fixed on both sides of the left and right upper corners of the hanging cabinet. After hanging up, the upper and lower and front and rear positioning adjustments can be performed. Finally, the 'body combination device' can be installed to ensure the fixing quality and use. effect. Quality requirements for special assemblies: Each lifting code should be able to withstand a vertical lifting force of 50KG; it has a three-dimensional adjustment function; plastic parts should be flame retardant, free of cracks and marks. However, in order to save costs, some small manufacturers use screws to fix the wall cabinets. This method is neither beautiful nor safe, and the adjustment position is also very troublesome. (sliding rails: both sides must be leveled
According to professionals, the importance of the slide rail is second only to the hinge. The better sliding function should be the natural combination of the smoothness and the load-bearing effect. Under the rated load-bearing conditions, there is no obvious friction and jamming phenomenon, and the sliding is smooth. It plays an important role in the use and life of the drawer. At present, the more common ones on the market are 'iron plate sliding rails' and 'damping pumping rails'. The general load-bearing weight of the iron plate sliding rail is about 35 kg, and the damping pumping rail is between 45 kg and 70 kg, which not only pulls silent, but also increases the bearing capacity. According to the professional, the damping pumping rail can reduce the noise caused by severe mechanical collisions and prevent premature aging of metal parts, and has the function of automatically removing dust.
Tip: If there is a problem with the slide rails, in addition to the quality of the product, there is another reason that the installation is improper, it is likely that the two sides are not leveled.
Pull basket: carefully selected, tailored
If the hardware such as hinges and slide rails are basic accessories for quality assurance, then the basket is a functional accessory that is comfortable, convenient and fashionable in the future. The basket has a large storage space, and can reasonably divide the space, so that various items and appliances are 'deserved', and the space at the corner can be fully utilized to maximize the use value of the space.
According to the cabinet designer, according to different purposes, the basket can be divided into a stove pull basket, a three-sided pull basket, a drawer pull basket, a dish pull basket, a high deep pull basket, a corner pull basket and the like. At the time of purchase, consumers are advised to introduce their business habits to the merchants and let the merchants help you choose the type of basket that best suits your home.
Tip: The basket style of a cabinet brand store is limited. After you have selected the cabinet brand, you can also go to other cabinets to see their basket style, or go to the hardware sales area of building materials "target=_blank> building materials market. If you choose a non-cabinet cooperative brand pull basket, it is best to bring the designer to the field to measure, so as to avoid trouble in the future installation.
