Product Details
Is this lid stay suitable for wooden flaps or aluminium framed flaps?
Yes. The K12 Adj Auto Lid Stay is designed for stay flaps made from wood or for flaps with an aluminium frame. This makes it a good fit for many cabinet front panel designs where controlled, automatic opening is needed.
What does the 50 N spring force mean for flap weight?
50 N indicates the spring force the gas spring provides. This model is intended for lid weights of up to 13.5 kg, with the exact match depending on your specific cabinet dimensions and flap setup. It is always best to follow any provided sample measurement guidance.
What flap opening angle will it give?
This lid stay supports an opening angle of up to 90 degrees. That range is commonly used for comfortable access in living and commercial cabinetry, helping the flap reach a fully usable position.
Will it fit my cabinet height?
For the best performance, this stay is intended for cabinets with a height range of 200 to 600 mm. If your cabinet is outside this range, the lift force and opening behaviour may not be as expected.
Can the lid stay be adjusted after installation?
Yes. You get an adjustment facility with travel of plus or minus 3 mm using the adjusting wheel. This can help you fine tune the flap position once it is mounted.
How is it installed and what fixing options are supported?
The stay is screw fixed into 32 mm series drilled holes, using the included mounting bracket. You can also use screw fixing or plug fitting depending on your cabinet construction. The package includes the gas spring lid stay, a screw fixing door lid bracket, a recess mounted cabinet side bracket, and fixings.
Is the grey silver finish suitable for different cabinet styles?
Yes. This model is finished in a grey silver coloured appearance, with a matching silver grey cover. It is intended to blend neatly with many cabinet accessory and furniture fitting applications.
