Are you a cabinet manufacturer, distributor, or retailer looking to source high-quality gas springs for your cabinet applications? Choosing the proper cabinet support is essential, and this guide helps you navigate the world of cabinet struts and make informed business decisions.
We’ll explore what you need to know, including how these components work, considerations, and top models. Let’s begin!
Ever wonder how high-end cabinets achieve effortless, controlled opening? It often comes down to a simple component: the cabinet gas spring.
Gas springs, also known as gas struts, are mechanical devices that store energy through compressed gas, typically nitrogen, within a sealed cylinder for smooth, cushioned motion. Think of a tiny shock absorber. A piston moves within this pressurized cylinder. As the door opens, the piston compresses the gas, preventing slamming. When closing, it provides gentle assistance.
This controlled movement enhances cabinet functionality and perceived quality. They are widely used in furniture for enhancing functionality and convenience, such as Kitchen cabinets, wall cabinets, storage ottomans, chests and boxes, TV cabinets, wall beds, sofas, and Recliners.
Remember clunky mechanical supports? For lighter doors, gas struts offer a modern, improved user experience with a cost saving of at least 30% to 50%.
Compared to traditional options, gas springs have key advantages:
Benefit | Description |
Smooth Motion | Doors open/close smoothly, eliminates slamming |
Support & Holding | Securely holds components in the open position or at specific angles. |
Soft Closing & Noise Reduction | Provides slow, quiet closing, preventing slams and noise, enhancing user experience and safety |
Adjustment | Allows for smooth adjustment of height and angles. |
Variety | Fixed, quick-release, upward, downward, and buffered models offer design flexibility. |
Selecting the right gas spring strut involves matching specs to the cabinet door. It is necessary to know the cabinet width, door weight, and opening angle, and calculate the correct gas spring size to know its force, stroke length, and the size that will fit your assembly.
To let us better understand the installation details, refer to the following picture of 100N gas springs, it shows the installation dimensions at different angles as follows.
Cabinet Type | Typical Door Weight | Recommended Force | Common Lengths (inches) |
Small Overhead Cabinets | Light | 30-60 (N) | 6, 8 Compact springs are ideal. |
Standard Kitchen Cabinets | Medium | 60-100 (N) | 8, 10 Most versatile range |
Large/Heavy Cabinets | Heavy | 100-150 (N) | 10, 12 Requires robust construction |
