Door Catches, for Mounting in Drilled Hole, for Free Flap 1.7 and 3.15

Product Details

How do I fit the Free Flap Push Catch Type 2 to my furniture?

The catch is designed for mounting in a drilled hole Ø 10 mm with a drilling depth of 90 mm. It can also be slotted into a screw on housing if that is the installation method you are using. Depth adjustment is available with less than 4 mm of adjustment to help align the flap.

What does the Type 2 ejection force 22 to 34 N mean for flap release?

The 22 to 34 N range is the ejection force for this flap push catch. In practice, it helps determine how firmly the flap is pushed and how reliably it opens or releases when operated. The correct force is important for flap weight and the way your flap sits in the opening.

Is there any adjustment available after installation?

Yes. This model supports depth adjustment of under 4 mm so you can fine tune the fit. There is also a release distance of 2 mm, which affects how the catch triggers during operation.

Does this catch include the screw on housing?

The product is supplied as the push catch itself. If you need a screw on housing for your mounting approach, you should order it separately using the correct order reference for the housing. This helps you match the housing type to your flap and panel thickness.

What hole size and depth should I drill?

For the drilled hole method, the catch is for a Ø 10 mm hole with a 90 mm drilling depth. Drilling the correct dimensions helps ensure proper seating and consistent operation.

What colour is the catch and will it suit typical furniture finishes?

This model is supplied in light grey, which is commonly chosen to blend with furniture components and indoor fittings. It is a practical option when you want the hardware to remain visually discreet.

Is the product backed by a long term guarantee?

Yes. The Free Flap Push Catch carries a Hafele Lifetime Guarantee of 25 years, which is designed to give confidence in long term performance when installed and used as intended.
