Heavy Duty Lid Stay Hinges Folding Lid Support Hinge,Perfect for Cabinet,Closet,Wardrobe or Toybox 110 Degree (Heavy Duty Style 1 Pair)

Nice hinges! They work as advertised. Instructions are a bit lacking and I had to figure out alternative way to mount the brackets but it works great. The instructions really only give you a measurement (in millimeters and you have to either convert it or hope you got a measuring tape with duals) I'm using these on some cabinets in my Mallard trailer. The doors were always a pain and made these cabinets kind of a hassle. The new hinges mount perfectly and hold the door up at a perfect 90 degrees. Adjustable with the included allen key. All hardware was included as well. Check out the pictures. Had to show how I just reversed the side bracket on each door. After I figured that out the install went smooth as can be.

I messed around with three other types of stay hinges before taking a chance with these - the bottom line, these work - they will keep your lid open, and also allow for a soft close (but not necessarily a controlled close - like with a pneumatic piston). Like others, to start I thought the directions were a bit difficult, I tried to follow them, and in the end just decided to go on my own. I opened my lid to the desired angle, then positioned the hinges (I installed two) so that they would close, ensuring the hinge pivot would be below the top of my box when the lid was closed, and the arm just barely missed the back of the box when the lid was open. I adjusted the tension (a great feature), and it works like a charm - the first hinge took 5 minutes to install as I figured out the placement, the second took 45 seconds. Here's the kicker, when I went back and measured where I installed the hinge and referenced it back to the instructions (with a bit of metric translation from Google), the directions were dead on. So, in the end, these are very easy to install without the instructions, but if you choose to follow the instructions, the measurements are perfect. My measurements were (for a lid that is open at about 105 degrees) - On the box - 5 3/8" down, 1 1/4" from the back. On the lid - 2" from the back edge (and straight up and down in relation to the box). Hope this is helpful - Btw, I painted the hinges, I don't believe they are sold in this color.

Good for what I needed and affordable. Not the smoothest soft close though.

Absolute garbage....they are not assembled, the instructions do not show you how to assemble them, and after 30 minutes you realise that there is no way that these work as shown. Not to mention, you need hinges in addition to these for it to work, so don't waste your money.

This hinge actually worked better than many were reporting. I used it for a cabinet door that is vertical with cabinet hinges on top side and opens from the bottom so the door needed to be supported at the top position. I only needed one hinge on one side and the stiffness adjusts easily. You even need to push the door closed - that's ideal. This is extremely easy to install... I didn't even measure anything. I highly recommend this hinge.

The first thing is that it looked like a good hinge in the ad, but it was not. It is foreign made, there are no instructions to really help with the installation, and they are not soft-closing. The hinge will hold the lid open, but when it is starting to close it comes down with a crash. There is supposedly an adjustment for closing softer, but it doesn't work. No matter how much the adjustment is tightened, it is pretty much useless. I bought two pairs and none of the four works as advertised. A complete waste of money.

I LOVE these things. I'd been looking for hinges like this forever and couldn't find any that were what I needed. I used these to keep the lid open on a nice diy cat litter box cabinet (plywood box lol) where the lid never opens more than about 75*. These hold the lid in place beautifully and then you just push it down to close. These are NOT soft closing hinges lol. Installation wasn't terribly, but I did end up having to take the thing off and put it back on because I originally installed it where it would hit into itself during close and then wouldn't close all the way, but once I worked that out it was great.

I bought a pair of these hinges for two small overhead cabinets in my 1964 vintage trailer. It works perfectly. There were no instructions included other than what was printed on the plastic bag that the hinges came in which was not helpful for me. However, a You Tube video provided the information that I needed, and installation was easy thereafter. One hinge was sufficient for each door. I have given it five stars, because once I figured out from the You Tube video how to put the pieces together, installation was a breeze. I'm very happy with them.
