What is cabinet hinge made of?

What is cabinet hinge made of? It is the common question that clients asked Kingwen Liang.
Hinge, in the spring kav hinge which Kingwen Liang engaged in, most of them use the cold-rolled steel Q195. About the knowledge of cold-rolled steel, please pay attention to the article below:
The use and classification of cold-rolled steel and cold-rolled coil
Cold-rolled steel, the cold-rolled thin steel is short for the ordinary carbon structure cold-rolled steel, is known as the cold steel, sometimes it will be mistakenly written as cold plate. The cold plate is composed of ordinary carbon structural steel hot-steel,
After further cold-rolled it will become the steel that the thickness is less than 4mm. Since the rolling is at a room temperature, it does not produce iron oxide, so it has high surface quality and high toughness, plus the annealing treatment, the mechanical properties and process performance is better than hot-rolled steel. In many fields, especially in the electrical appliance area, has gradually replaced the hot-rolled steel.

How to choose the bathroom cabinet (about hinge) Original

By Berry

Most of the consumers focus on the style and color of the bathroom cabinet when they choose the cabinet, pays little attention to the selection of cabinet hardware accessories. Actually the accessories is one of the most important part of modern bathroom furniture, it will directly affect the overall level and the function of the bathroom cabinet.

Bathroom cabinet hardware accessories mainly include: hinges, drawer slides, hydraulic and the anchor. Today we mainly discuss how to choose the cupboard door hinges.

Hinge, is an important part of the bathroom cabinet, is most used in the cupboard switching process. At current market, hinge is mainly include: soft close hinge, common hinge, two-way hinge, two-dimensional hinge and three-dimensional hinge by function. By material, hinge mainly include: cold-rolled sheet and stainless steel hinge.

Now there are two kinds of cabinet door hinge: clip on and fixed. The clip-on hinge is divided into base and pedestal two parts, of course, it is easier to install and disassemble for the clip-on hinge. The hinge usually use the two-dimensional and three-dimensional eccentric displacement to adjust , the three-dimensional hinge is of course better. In addition, you should choose the hinge with a hydraulic buffer ,which makes the door is easy to open and closed slowly, so as to ensure the safety and avoid the noise when you close the door, guarantee the life more comfortable and quite.

Actually the most significant part of hinge is the material that made of the hinge , if the material is not good, the door may be dropped out after a period of time. It is better to use the self-closing stainless steel hinges in the bathroom, its thickness and toughness is perfect. Finally, suggest you to choose the hinge which made by brands, it will ensure the high quality and longer service life.

What is cabinet hinge made of？It is often asked by the clients to Kingwen Liang.

Kitchen Hinge, in the spring furniture hinge industry which Kingwen Liang is engaged in, cold rolled steel Q195 is most used. About the knowledge of the cold rolled steel, please pay attention to the article below

The classification and use of the cold rolled steel and the cold rolled coil

Cold-rolled steel is short for the thin cold-rolled steel which is made from ordinary carbon structural, commonly known as the cold plate. Cold plate is the steel that made up of ordinary carbon structural steel hot-rolled steel belt; the thickness is less than 4mm after further cold rolling. The cold plate has a favorable quality and high precision in size because it is made in the room temperature and would not produce scale, plus with the annealing treatment, the mechanical properties and process performance are better than hot rolled steel, in many fields, especially in home appliance manufacturing areas, has been gradually replace the hot rolled steel.

Applicable grades: Q195 Q215 Q235 Q275 SPCC (Japan brand) ST12 (Germany brand)

Symbol:

1.       Q- The code for the ordinary carbon structural point (limit), it is the first word of Chinese phonetic alphabet. 195 215 235 255 275-represent the number the cold-rolled steel can bear (limit), the unit (MPa ). The Q235 is the best in the strength, plasticity, toughness of the ordinary carbon structural, it can meet the demand of daily use, so the application range is very wide.

2.       S-for steel. P for plate. C for cold-rolled. And the fourth-regular grade C for common.

3.       ST for Steel and the number 12 stand for the ordinary cold-rolled steel.

     Cold-rolled steel: Steel-technical condition standard

Mark example: B-0.57501500-GB708-88, Steel, Q/BQB402 Standard, grade (SPCC), annealing heat treatment state plus level(S), table textured D, with central processing status to surface quality level for FB trimming steel; the thickness is 0.5mm, B precision of width 1000mm. a level precision ,length is 2000mm, A level precision ,roughness of PF precision. A, is marked as: steel ECQ/BQB 402-(SPCC)-SD-FB/(A2000A-PF.0.51000A)

Cold-rolled steel: Q225-GB912-89

The main origin: Bao steel, steel, Ben steel, Wu steel, Han steel, Bao steel, Tang steel, Lian steel, Ji steel and so on.

Ordinary cold-rolled steel: This is made up of ordinary carbon structural or low alloy structural. It has a good surface quality and a perfect punching property. It requires passing the cold bending test, which is common used in the automotive industry.

High quality cold-rolled steel: mainly include all kinds of high quality cold-rolled steel; the most commonly used is the carbon structural, especially for deep drawing, which is composed of low carbon cold-rolled steel. According to the surface quality, divided it into three parts: I II III, respectively the special senior, senior and high rough surface, according to the drawing, can be divided into ZF, HF and F, due to the toughness of the steel, can deeply divided into A and B, is widely used in the automobile tractor industry.

Cold-rolled steel: with smoothly surface, excellent in processing, commonly used in the automobile refrigerator washing machine and other home appliance, it is also used in the industrial equipment and all kinds of building material. With the development of economy, the cold-rolled steel is called as the material of modern society.

Can we distinguish high quality cabinet soft close hinge from the one with bad quality via intuition？

Can we distinguish high quality hydraulic soft close hinge from the one with bad quality via intuition？

Yesterday, I met a boss whom I’ve known him since 2001 and we’ve done business for four or five years.
He was so happy to meet me at the gate of his factory as soon as I got off the car. “Glad to see you again,Kingwen”, He said.
“Yeah, long time no see”, I answered him with a smile. After 2006, we have not seen each other nearly for 6 years, due to the fact that clients demanded much higher level products，so that they changed cabinet hinge supplier.
After greetings and knowing recent situation between us, he showed me our kav brand hydraulic hinge and said “The soft close function is a little fast. It seems that the furniture hinges we use now are better. Is the buffering effect not enough? It is better that the door can soft close at angle of 30 degree and will not produce noise.
“It does not matter, and we can adjust its speed as long as you put forward your demands. I am here now, and we can solve all problems right away. Or if you have any new requirements, extra function or new design, maybe I can help you out.  Also you can ask a technologist to install this soft close hydraulic hinge with me and compare it with your previous ones and which one is better can be found out soon” I said. They readily agreed, after finishing installation, he looked at it and said the effect is almost the same.
Moreover, when he pulled the door at 35°Angle and then loosened his hands, the hydraulic hinge they used before didn’t have the function of buffering and made a big noise, while our kav brand hydraulic hinge soft closed with great buffering function and without any noise.
Now customer is very satisfied with our soft closing hinge, and he knew some of his friends also have been using our hinges for years. He suggested that he will place order for our soft close hydraulic hinge and soft close slide in a few days.

So, here underline again by Kingwen, I already uploaded lots of articles about how to distinguish hinges. Currently, with the increasing requirement of customers and development of domestic hydraulic hinges technology, it is difficult to distinguish soft close hinge of bad quality from the one with good quality, if only with our eyes and several close-open movement. We have to try to use them and as the time goes by， there will show up the differences.

What do you think?

With half overlay hinge, how to solve the collision when cupboard open?

With half overlay hinge, how to solve the collision when cupboard open?

By Kingwen Liang

This is the question from a friend online at eleven o’clock.

F(for friend ): Hello, here is the question, the two cupboards of the cabinet share the side panel, using the half overlay cabinet hinge, but when I open one of the cupboard, it will hit the other, so, how to solve the problem? The gap of the two doors is about 2 to 3mm.

Kingwen Liang: About the question, firstly we should consider whether the door is too thick (Now many people use the 25mm cupboard), if you choose the ordinary 18mm kitchen hinge, then the collision is inevitable, because the door is too thick, its corners will produce an arc. If this is the issue, I suggest you to use the hinge which is made for the thick cupboard. The holes of thick door hinge are generally 40mm, 5mm longer than regular hinge, within using the thick door hinge, can be very good to avoid the angle problem caused by the door is too thick. Secondly, if it is only the ordinary 15mm or 18mm cupboard, and the door hinge is the conventional product ,then you can try to down the adjusting screw a little bit, about 1mm or 2mm on both sides, it may can solve the problem.(You can see how to adjust on the picture above)

Note: Half overlay hinge, the so-called half-cover hinge, hinge in bending; the ordinary thickness is 9mm.

PS: I got a message below in nine thirty on 23th, September, 2008

Thank you a lot. The door is too thick indeed, and it is aluminum frame doors. I have replaced the half overlay removable hinge to the half overlay ordinary hinge, then the problem solved. Thank you very much, I often read your blog, throughout your blog , I have a better understanding of cupboard hinge, and have been interested in it, hope can be your agent in the future. 

American-style cabinet, damping soft close hinge demand to follow the trend

American-style cabinet, damping soft close hinge demand to follow the trend

By Kingwen Liang

Damping, the pursuit of high-end household, about the application of damping, Kingwen Liang has been mentioned in the previous article.

And recently, more and more customers made an inquiry about soft close hinge, the quantity that customer need is also growing rapidly.

Originally, the U.S. market has always been the top priority of China's furniture exports. However, due to different tastes of American customers, the short arm hinge has a majority used in the U.S market in order to maintain the high-end of American furniture. American furniture and cabinet factory are fond of Blum hinges, hettich hinges and other international brands, while the domestic cabient hinges are rarely used.

But in recent years, more and more manufacturers which produce American-style cabinet have emerged in mainland of China; the domestic manufacturers have a better understanding of hinge that made in China, knowing that it is getting better and better, thus make the manufacturers trend to choose domestic hinge in order to save time and cost and maintain the quality at the same time.

While the hinge hydraulic system appears, attract a large number of American-style cabinet manufacturers.

Since last year, there have been dozens of American-style cabinet manufacturers, both at home and abroad came to Long Sheng hinge factory in person, or call to inquire whether the American hinge damping effect can be integrated.

Now, in order to meet the market demand, has developed an integrated damping kitchen hinge, hoping to really fill a gap in the market. (Such as the opening title picture above)
