Most consumers choosing certain interior items, pay attention to the quality of the accessories that they are equipped. This approach is due to the fact that it is this element that can affect how long the product will serve until first repairs. It is worth noting that such a statement applies to all elements, including on the loop.

The loops are made in the form of mechanical type devices, which are installed on the facade part of the case of cabinets or other furniture items, so that the door can be opened at a certain angle. Today these accessories are offered in a large number of options.which differ from each other with design, appointment, installation method and other characteristics. Due to such a wide variety of these elements, the ordinary consumer faces difficulty when choosing accessories, how it is not easy to understand which one options will suit For specific furniture.

Primary requirements

Although many consumers pay attention to appearance Accessories and fastening method, nevertheless, when choosing, they must proceed from parameters such as strength and endurance. If you neglect this recommendation, then bought accessories will not be able to cope with the load and break soonerstated by the manufacturer.

For this reason, the company specializing in the production of furniture loops and other products that seek to maintain a good reputation, in the process of manufacturing their products they seek to make them high quality.

It is noteworthy that it doesn't matter which design consumer decided to buy a loop, since any such product will be distinguished by high quality performance.

Fastening for wooden furniture

The overwhelming majority of cabinets and other varieties wooden furniture Usually equipped with four-stroke loops.

Thanks to the special design of these fasteners, it is possible to open the cabinet doors by 92-180 degrees. They also allow you to configure in three planes. The following elements can be distinguished from four-stroke fittings:

• loop installed on the door;
• the mounting plate, which is placed on the side wall of the cabinet.

The four-starry canopies offered today can be classified into several groups:

1. Overhead fittings. A similar type of loops is advisable to use for furniture in which the door closes the side parts of the niches where it is installed.
2. Semi-roll canopies. Stop the choice on such an accessory should be when one sidewall is covered by two doors at once.
3. Internal loop. Their main purpose is to attach the doors from the inside.
4. Accessories that allows you to perform the installation of the door at an angle of 45 degrees. It is best to use this type for angular cabinets and a tumb.
5. Inverse mechanisms. Due to the presence of a loop of this type, it is possible to open a leaf of 180 degrees.
6. Piano sheds. Due to the low reliability of such fittings, manufacturers in rare cases are equipped with furniture items. The most common option where they are used are the sliding facades of vintage interior items. They are also often present in the design of cabinets made in retro style.
7. Card loops. Accessories of this type is performed in two versions: folding or untentened. At the same time, you can find card chains that are distinguished by the original design. defined figures. Detailed solution gives them a very spectacular look.
8. Antlesol fittings. Spring is used as the main element in such loops.

Before making a final solution in favor of a particular fittings for furniture, it is desirable to understand whether its characteristics correspond to the subject of the interior for which you buy it. At the election stage it is important to take into account the slightest details.Since they are able to affect the work of the product.

Sheds on glass sash

In the design of accessories, intended for glass lockers, you can select the following items:

The standard hinge versions with which the glass doors of the cabinet are equipped with two types of plugs and sealing rings. Most often first have execution in the form of a circleAnd the second is a complete circle. The final decision on the choice of one or another type of loops for the cabinet door should take the consumer itself. One of the possible solutions for installing on glass flaps can also be magnets.

Installation and regulation of fixtures

Sometimes situations occur when the owner does its careless actions damages the loop, because of what it leaves its place either moves. In this case, it must fix everything and adjust the fastening.

The most common option for the appearance of a malfunction is associated with such a phenomenon at which the hinges are "pull" the door. It is worth saying that this can happen with piano loops. Here it is important to very accurately install a hinge.Making everything without a rush.

To mount the accessories, you should prepare a number of tools:

• accessories that must be installed;
• drill with terminal tip;
• mounting plate;
• fastening elements.

Adjustment with horizontal discrepancy of furniture doors

The main task here is to install the door in such a way that the clearance appears from the mounting side, and during the closing of the door the reverse side went beyond the boundaries of the wardrobe walls. In the case of furniture, two doors, they must cling to each other.

The process of adjustment itself comes down to performing manipulations with a special adjusting screw, which is available on furniture loops. It is quite simple to find it: the usual place for its location is the shoulder of the loop, located closest to the door, as opposed to the fastening screws and the additional adjusting screw. If this breaker is still stronger, then this will lead to an increase in the gap Between the end part of the door and the wall of the cabinet. By acting the opposite way, that is, weakening the screw, we reduce the distance between the designated elements.

Adjusting the depth of the door of the cabinet

In the process of operation of the cabinet or other furniture, the owner may notice that his door, being in a closed state, goes beyond the boundaries or, on the contrary, is too recessed deep into the cabinet. In this case, the adjustment procedure will be similar to the one that was used in the previous case. To do this, it is necessary to find the adjusting screw on the hinge shoulder again, remembering that it should be closest to the wall of the cabinet.

The purpose of this screw is not only in adjustment, but also fastening the door. Thus, if you slightly unscrew it, then it will be possible to move the door back and forth in relation to the walls. To adjust the adjustment, the suitable position of the door should be determined, transfer it to it, after which it is tightening the adjusting screw until it stops.

Remember that not only important what kind of fittings you buy for your furniture. It also matters that its installation was performed by a qualified installer. In this case each little thing is importantwhich can affect the life of the entire product.

Such a type of fittings as loops play important role, affecting the deadlines of the furniture. Therefore, it is necessary to approach its choice as responsibly, as well as the choice of cabinet or cabinet. Follow consider construction features This accessory, because if there is a discrepancy between the fittings and the product itself, in which it will be installed, then this item will not be able to serve for a long time.

Also at the selection stage should be asked by the features of the maintenance of a particular type of furniture loops. This is important due to the fact that in the absence of knowledge about the implementation proper adjustment Accessories The owner will not be able to use furniture with all the convenience. And in this case, he risks closer the moment when you need to look for new loops instead of those that soon will fail.

On the modern market furniture fittings represented a large number of Types of furniture loops. IN modern production Furniture most often use four-stroke modifications that are improved hinges of the USSR times. Of course, much more reliable and better than your predecessors. Today, the choice of components for the manufacture of furniture is quite extensive.

Let's figure out what kinds of hinges today are used by furniture in the manufacture of furniture.

The most common loops are overhead loops that use mainly for fastening the facades (door) to the furniture housing. Also there are semi-roll loops, internal, angular, with closers, spring, etc.

Today we will consider the installation of the furniture loop of the overhead type. I would like to note that the installation of all other varieties of canopies will be like.

To begin with, you need to figure out, from which parts is the loop. First of all, it fastener Planck And the mechanism itself. The fastener bar should be fixed to the inside of the housing, the loop - on the facade into a special hole, which must be made deaf, twelve-thirteen millimeters depth.

The diameter of the opening depends on the type of loop, and can be twenty-six or thirty five millimeters.

Sheds with a bowl of twenty-six millimeters are used extremely rarely.

Furniture makers apply them only in cases where it is necessary to attach the facade to the module in which it is placed washing machine (unbalanced). This is explained by the fact that the gap for fastening the loop in this case is very small, and the standard canopy attach is not possible.

In order to carry out the installation of furniture loops, you will need the following tool:

• screwdriver;
• pencil;
• screwdriver;
• roulette;
• awl;
• self-tapping screw 4 * 16 mm;
• face mill 35 mm.

Progress

Marking of furniture loops

To begin with, it is necessary to note the centers of future holes. Since all the doors have different height And the estimated installation site, the indicators for each option will range from seventy to one hundred and twenty millimeters. Another point: depending on what weight of the door and its size, three or more can be installed.

When installing three or more loops per facade, pay attention to the fact that the loop in the final result does not fall on the horizontal inner parts of the cabinet (for example, shelves, ends of the CARG, etc.). Make a mark for the hole at a distance of twenty-two millimeters from the end of the door.

Drilling hole under the bowl

Armed with a screwdriver and an end mill of 35 mm, proceed to drilling. Basically, the depth of cup is twelve to thirteen millimeters. Do not try to drill deeper, because the chipboard, which has a thickness of only 16 millimeters, is not always high-quality outer layers of laminate. If drill a slightly larger hole, there is a risk of damage to these layers, disguise or fix that will already be alas, is impossible.

It is recommended to use a well-compatible cutter, with which it will be impossible to damage the surface or make chips. Also, in order not to appear chips, the screwdriver should be kept strictly vertically.

Installation of overhead loops. Insert the loop into the resulting hole, align it relative to the end of the facade.

Put with a sewn set for the self-tapping screw. Then tighten them into the holes.

Fastening facades

On sideways inner side Enclosures Attach the pad for fastening the loop. Connect two parts of the canopy. Adjust the facade regarding the housing using a screwdriver.

It is very convenient to do this not on weight, but just the same on the smooth surface in a horizontal position. Those. The sidewall to which you need to attach the loop pad should be in a horizontal position, so you can easily try to try on and fasten the facade to the sidewall.

Adjustment of furniture loops

As for the adjustment of furniture loops, it can be carried out in three planes: vertically, in depth and fixation of the canopy, horizontally.

1. The adjustment of the loop in the depth and fixation of the canopy, first of all, is necessary in order to press the facade closer to the body, or, on the contrary, weaken this pressed. A screwdriver must twist an oval hole. Very often, therefore, regulate loops indoors with uneven floors.

2. Vertical adjustment gives moving the door higher or lower. Because the facades, like everything else, acts the strength of attraction, they can, with time, to put. It is necessary to make such an adjustment of canopies from time to time. It is performed by all the same twisting oval holes.

3. Horizontal adjustment. In other words, it is a side adjustment. Due to it, it is possible to avoid slits between the facades and the case part. Also, this method is good if an uneven floor or wall indoors.

Well, now you know everything about fastening furniture loop on furniture facade. We hope our briefing will help you avoid the most common mistakes when independent installation Furniture loops.

In spacious or small apartment There are necessarily cabinets, lockers, bedside tables that provide places for systematization and reliable preservation behind the closed facade of clothing, dishes, books, other necessary things. That is why the cabinet doors perform one of the most important structural functions.

Today, it is offered to use the use of various ways to fasten the traditional pumping doors, as well as sliding, which are installed mainly in the wardrobes. They can be installed in the closet any doors if you read the mechanisms of their action and follow detailed instructions.

Installation of a swing facade for furniture loops

Today there are the following types door loops:

• hinged;
• four-stroke (overhead, semi-roll or depository);
• products for glass structures;
• corner;
• inverse.

How to mount the door leaf on the loop

Before installing the loop on the door and the wall of the cabinet, you need to take into account the material of the manufacture of furniture, and also determine how much door hinges need. The number of products used depends on the size of the door and its mass. For example, with a facade height of about 1500-2000 cm, which weighs up to 13 kg, you will need 3 loops.

Prepare for work

You should choose the following tools with which you can hang with your own hands swing doors into the cupboard. Prepare:

• electric drill and drill corresponding to the diameter of the fastening screw;
• milling Machine, nozzle of equal diameter;
• roulette, pencil for applying labels;
• building level;
• screwdrived a conventional screwdriver, suitable for fastening elements.

Procedure

1. Indicate the place on the door to install the loops. The distance between the hinges depends on the height of the web, and 8-15 cm should be measured from the edge.
2. Attach the loop to the door and with the help of a pencil, mark the place for a cup of fixture.
3. Remove the niches for a cup with a mill with a nozzle. Use the most acute tool by driving at a depth of 13 mm.
4. Insert the loop inside the finished removal, align the device horizontally. Make places to prepare holes for fastening.
5. Remove the holes under the fasteners.
6. Attach the loop to the door surface.
7. Cut your own hands the door to the cabinet housing, align the position of the web, apply marks on the cabinets where the retaliation bar must be installed.
8. Drill the cabinet at the points marked.
9. Install the screw bar on the screws.
10. Connect both parts of the loops.
11. Using a screwdriver, adjust the correct position of the loop.

Sliding panels wardrobes

The wardrobe for today is the most popular furniture. This contributes to the opportunity to rationally use the living area. Often the cabinet takes all the floor from the floor to the ceiling, has a lot of capacity and, when using a sliding door, absolutely does not interfere with the movement next to it.

So that such furniture for storage served for a long time and carefully, it is important to properly collect the whole design. The main role belongs to the impeccable installation of sliding facades. Ensuring the requirements and recommendations of specialists, a person with the skills of applying special tools can install the door system of the cabinet with their own hands.

What you need to work

Before you start installing the door with your own hands, check for the necessary components for sliding system into the cupboard. In addition to the facades themselves, it must be prepared:

• Bottom and upper rails or guide profiles. These are the main details that ensure the movement of the door canvase.
• Motion limiters and stoppers. Details that help the door smoothly move along the rail guide and stop traffic in a specific place.
• Closers - mechanisms that provide sliding door panel.
• Accessories for the facade system. For example, seals, screws, rollers, etc.

Prepare tools:

• electric drill;
• metal drill with a diameter of 4 mm;
• set of straight and crosshead screwdrivers;
• alcohol construction level;
• imbus key;
• plumb on cord;
• sandpaper;
• passatia;
• a hammer;
• stationery knife;
• roulette.

Carefully read the main constructive elements Sliding door wardrobe and their location.

Step-by-step instruction

You can start using sliding facades with your own hands after the installation of the wardrobe itself has already fully ended. Design doors must be exhibited accordingly. Performing work, be extremely attentive and neat, as components can be easily damaged.

1. Maximum measurement of the worish width of the cabinet at the top. There will be mounted the upper rail guide. From the resulting value you need to subtract 1-2 mm.
2. Use the construction line (square) to accurately perpendicular to designate the reise line according to the obtained size. Cut a profile by applying a grinder or handcraft for metal.
3. We prepare mounting holes for self-tapping screws. Over the entire length of the guide profile with uniform intervals of about 40-60 cm. Put marking for holes for screws, they should be located on the same line.
4. To do not damage the profile during drilling, use the chair, the table, the other. Drill holes, then pass the edges emery paper.
5. Already a ready-made guide profile in the top open-door wardrobe. Use for this screws or screws.
6. Cut the same to the top bottom profile. Make the layout of the mounting holes, then drill and pass the edges of the propyl.
7. Install the stopper at both ends of the profile guide. The device is intended for fixing the state of the door leaf of the cabinet in a closed position. In order for the retainer to function correctly, it must be inserted: in the right canvas - in the recess on the right, in the left canvas - in the recess on the left.

1. We check the position of the profile position correctly.
2. Installing the door on the profiles in the wardrobe. Alignment of the position of the facade canvas.

The sliding system used provides for the use of special rollers, which are placed on both sides of the facade (at the top and bottom). The upper elements are stationary, they fix the door leaf. The lower rollers perform the function of the workers - the door moves along it.

1. Insert with your own hands insert the top rollers in a special place in the upper profile, and the lower wheels in the groove of the lower profile rail. The scheme clearly illustrates places and installation methods.
2. Sliding doors of the cabinet compartment are installed, it is time to adjust their position. For this there are special wheels that are on both sides of each door canvase. To properly adjust the balance of the cabinet door must be in the closed position.

In some systems when adjusting door Towns Two adjusting screw located at the top of the bottom roller. You can make it a cross-hard screwdriver or hexagon. If the adjustment is performed correctly, the doors are firmly adjacent in an open and closed position to the cabinet planes, gently slide on the guides without screens and rubbing.

1. At this stage, screw the lower guide rail to the bottom of the bottom of the wardrobe. Final installation if you are 100% sure that door facades Located in the right working position (located vertically and parallel).
2. Stick special rubber lining on side ends Each door. This will help weaken the power of the shocks that occur when opening / closing the door.
3. Pay attention to the adjustment of the position of the papers. Details are customized in such a way that the door remains closed while hitting them the lower rollers.
4. New guides are shipped from a warehouse covered special protective film. It protects the surface of components from damage and scratching during delivery and mounting work. When the work is already behind, the film from the aluminum profile can be removed.

System build process sliding doors It is impossible to name with your own hands. But attentive and neat master will make all the work correctly, and the closet will last for many years.

For fastening and further operation of doors in furniture manufacturing Used different types loops. If you bought a closet and decided to collect it yourself, then you cannot avoid the process of installing doors on furniture loops.

Figure 1. Furniture loop device

In the modern furniture market are represented different kinds Door loops, which can be attributed both four-starry loops, and just hinged, which were very popular in Soviet times. Today, four-stroke hits are enjoying great popularity, which are distinguished by a simple and reliable design, as well as light installation. They possess high levels Strengths that provide an unlimited number of opening and closing cycles. Another significant advantage of such a mechanism is the possibility of adjusting it in 3 planes, which will allow you to align the cabinet doors without any problems.

The four-stroke loop consists of the following elements (Fig. 1):

• a cup;
• shoulder;
• installation (response) plank.

Loop fixed to the furniture box mounting plank.And a cup - to the door. Self-tapping screws are used as fasteners. The shoulder plays the role of the lever and connects the cup with a response with a four-stroke device. In the lid, the slap is placed an adjusting screw with which you can adjust the position of the door with respect to the base.

According to the method of imposing a sash on the housing of the samples are divided into:

1. Overhead. They are used when the door closes the sidewalls of that niche in which it is placed. This method of fastening the doors is the most popular, so it can be found almost on any furniture headset.
2. Semi-blank. Used in the case when 2 doors come on the same sidewall to the same sidewall. The loops of this species differ from the rest of a small bend of the base, which provides a small distance between the two facades.
3. Internal. Apply in the case of the inner fastening of the facade, that is, the door does not close the sidewalls of the niche in which it is placed, but is inside it. The base of such hollows has a pronounced bend.
4. Corner. With the help of such mechanisms, the doors can be fixed at a certain angle.

Preparatory work

To install a furniture loop on the cabinet with your own hands, you need to prepare such tools like:

Figure 2. Loop marking

• screwdriver;
• face mill with a diameter of 35 mm;
• line;
• building level;
• awl;
• pencil;
• self-tapping screw - 3.5x16 or 4x16 mm 2 pcs. 1 loop.

After preparing the tool, markup is made, which is the center of each hole under the loop. Depending on the height of the door, as well as from the altitude of the shelves from the edge of the facade, about 7-12 cm are retreating. If the door has large dimensions, it is necessary to use no 2 loops, and 3 or more. At the same time, the step between canopies should be equal to at least 50 cm. The dependence of the number of loops from the height and mass of the facade is presented in the table.

After marking in height, the centers of the holes from the edges are width. For standard door loop An indentation from the edge should be approximately 21-22 mm (Fig. 2). Carrying out the markup, it is necessary to ensure that after mounting the loops did not touch the cabinet shelves, because it will interfere with the normal functioning of the door.

Accessories are an important element of any furniture. It defines the quality and service life, especially if we talk about the cabinets. From how high-quality it is used, its ability to perform a number of actions depends: to open, close and so on.

Loops for doors: what are there?

Most. an important element Cabinet accessories are hinges. They not only help attach the facade to the case, but also responsible for the opening of the door. And the last procedure can be performed under different anglesthat is very convenient during the operation of this type of furniture.

The choice of loops, which are used when assembling furniture, large enough. They differ in both their constructive features and other indicators. This greatly complicates the process of their choice. To make it right, you need to know what kind of furniture loops come, their purpose, and how to fix these elements on the cabinet door. This information will help to fulfill all the work with your own hands and provide long service product.

After the door frame is assembled, you need to hang the doors. To do this, do not do without a special mechanism that will provide them with opening and closing. Loops protrude as it. When installing the doors of the cabinet mainly apply hinged or four-stroke fasteners. They are distinguished by their appearance and functional abilities. So, the first are represented in the form of two parts, which are connected by the axis.

This type of loops is known for a long time. It is used when assembling furniture for more than twenty years. It is easy to install and convenient to use. With time this species The loops have improved. Thus, they become universal, can be used when assembling different species The cabinets and they got the name - four-starry.

But for glass and mirror doors, such loops will not fit. When they are assembling, accessories are needed, equipped with a decorative lining and a special ring, which contributes to the construct seal. These loops are installed directly on the glass surface.

Loops for doors: the method of overlay and scope

Besides constructive features, loops can be installed differently. So, distinguish invoice and semi-blank accessories, which is mainly used when assembling furniture with outer doors. Another loop option is deposit. They are well suited for partitions located inside the product. If the cabinet is angular, then when it is assembling, corner fasteners are needed. At the same time, they are of different configurations.

As you know, the hinge doors provide their ability to open and close. Mostly 90 degrees. But in some cases it must be increased. Traditional loops will not allow it to do. Therefore, to open the door of the furniture up to 180 degrees, it is necessary to install special accessories. Loops, providing this ability to do the doors of furniture, are called inverse.

How to install a loop on the cabinet door?

Installation of loops on the cabinet door is an easy procedure. If you assemble the furniture with your own hands, then this procedure You will be under power. The main thing is to know its features and properly prepare. All other work will be performed quickly and easily.

Before starting the installation of the loops, it is necessary to prepare tools without which it is not to solve this task. Their list is small and eat in almost every home. Therefore, the cost of their acquisition will not need. So, such tools such as a pencil, level, screwdriver or screwdriver, self-tapping screw, roulette, drill are needed. Well, and, of course, the fastener itself.

Installation of loops on the cabinet door: stages of work

After prepared required tools, You can go to the main work. The first stage lies in the markup. It is carried out when registering the interval, which is 80-130 mm, between the holes. It is necessary to note their center on the facade of the product. As for the number of loops, this indicator fuses what the height of the door themselves. So, it can be used both two and more loops.

An important point in conducting these works is to extract the distance to the edge of the facade and shelves. Otherwise, the door will not cling and bad will do it. It is considered right distance From the edge of the facade to the center of the opening of 20 mm.

In order to make the opening, a 34 mm drill will be required. It will drill the hole of the required depth. Usually this indicator equal to 13 mm. To do this, the drill is inserted into the drill. When carrying out work, keep the tool at an angle of ninety degrees. If you change this position, it is inevitably the appearance of slots, chips and other things that can spoil the appearance of the furniture.

After the loops are fixed, you can start installing doors. But it is worth paying attention to how the fasteners are located. They should be on the same axis. This will provide even placement of doors and uniform load distribution. If you do not observe, then the product will quickly fail, and it will be necessary to repair it.

Loop adjustment

The loop adjustment is the final procedure in this process. At the same time, it requires no less responsible approach, as it affects the quality of the work of the mechanism.

Adjustment is performed different ways Depending on how furniture is operated. If the door must be pressed to the door or, on the contrary, removed from it, the fasteners are clamped or weakened. The process of adjustment is performed in depth and fixation of the fittings. To perform this job, you can use a screwdriver. This method of adjustment is mainly necessary in rooms with uneven floors. It will provide the opening and closure of the furniture door.

As practice shows, doors on furniture over time they sav. Vertical adjustment will help correct the situation. She is responsible for the placement of doors at the height of the facade. It is possible to adjust it, make it higher or lower.

In the event of the appearance of the slits between the door and the housing will help horizontal adjustment. It will eliminate them and provide a dense adjacent to all furniture elements. It is used mainly for furniture, which is located on uneven floors.
