Frequently asked questions: Furniture Hardware
Which hardware is needed to assemble or repair a piece of furniture?

You need hinges, small fittings and small accessories such as corner brackets, shelf supports and corner protectors. They are useful for joiners, window and door fitters, maintenance workers and anyone who assembles furniture. A well-chosen hinge or a corner bracket in the right place makes a difference to how well the furniture holds up, in a new assembly as well as in a repair.

Which hinge should I choose: inset, overlay or recessed?

Inset and overlay hinges differ in the position of the door relative to the side of the cabinet. Recessed hinges require a housing prepared in the wood. Choose according to the thickness of the panel, the position of the door and the type of opening you need to achieve, and check the data sheet of the model.

Which small accessories are used to protect doors and edges?

There are P-Baby adhesive corner protectors, Smove cushioned bumpers for doors and felt glides for chairs. The corner protector shields the edge from knocks, while the bumper cushions the closing of the door. Choose the size according to the piece to be protected, checking the data sheet of each item.

Which box and table hinges are available?

You will find box hinges, also in the 13x25 size, concealed hinges for tables and concealed cylindrical hinges. There are also table catches, box catches and the Clipper model. For hinges and catches, check the size and fitting position on the data sheet before drilling.

Which cam kits and shelf supports are used for assembling furniture?

The cam fitting kit joins panels with a hidden system, while the plastic shelf support with a 5 mm galvanised iron pin holds up a shelf. The shelf support pin must be inserted in the hole specified on the data sheet. Check the hole diameter and the intended load before fitting the shelf.

Which connectors for Plexiglas sheets are used in furniture?

There are connectors for Plexiglas sheets from 3 to 5 mm from the Aldeghi line, useful for joining transparent sheets. The connector must be chosen according to the sheet thickness given in the title. For cutting and drilling Plexiglas, follow the manufacturer's instructions and use bits suited to the material.

How do I choose the right hardware for a piece of furniture and how do I fit it?

Start from the weight and use of the furniture: a heavy door needs sturdier hinges than a light drawer. Check the panel thickness, the type of fitting and the hole size, and keep a screwdriver suited to the screws at hand. Fit the fixed parts first, then the doors, and check that the openings are even.
