Maintaining damper hinges is a key step in ensuring a smooth, quiet closing of a door or window. Here are some suggestions for maintaining damping hinges:
1. Keep it clean
Use a clean, soft cloth to gently wipe the surface of the damper hinge to remove dust and dirt.
Avoid using cleaners containing acidic or alkaline ingredients to avoid damaging the surface coating of the damping hinge.
If you find that the hinge surface is difficult to remove black spots or stains, you can try to use a small amount of neutral detergent to wipe.
2. Avoid corrosion
Keep the damper hinges dry and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to prevent rust.
Avoid salt, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar and other condiments or other corrosive liquids from touching the damper hinge. In case of contact, wipe it off immediately with a dry cloth.
3. Lubricate regularly
Every 2 to 3 months, add an appropriate amount of lubricating oil to the damping hinge regularly to maintain its smooth operation.
When applying lubricating oil, special attention should be paid to the screw of the hinge and the protrusion and groove position of the embedding depth to ensure that these parts are fully lubricated.
4. Pay attention to how you use it
When opening and closing doors or Windows, avoid excessive force to avoid impact and damage to the damping hinges.
Keep the door or window open and close smoothly, avoid sudden opening or closing, to extend the service life of the damping hinge.
5. Check and adjust regularly
Periodically check the tightness of the damping hinges to ensure that the screws are not loose.
If it is found that the hinge is loose or the door panel is uneven, it should be tightened or adjusted immediately with a tool.
Check whether the coating of the hinge is intact, and repair or replace it in time if it is damaged.
6. Prevent heavy objects from crushing
Avoid placing heavy objects on the damper hinge or subjecting it to excessive pressure, so as not to cause deformation or damage to the hinge.
7. Professional maintenance and replacement
If the damping hinge fails or cannot be used normally, professionals should be contacted in time for repair or replacement.
Avoid disassembling or repairing the damper hinge yourself, so as not to cause greater damage or safety hazards.
