Hinges 101: Exploring Titus' Innovative Hinge Solutions
0-minute read
When it comes to hinges for cabinetry, Titus offers a comprehensive range of high-performance solutions designed for both professional installers and everyday users. With features like tool-free mounting and a high tolerance for drilling misalignments, Titus hinges deliver superior performance, ease of use, and premium user experience.
T-type Hinge: Strength, Durability, and Innovation
The T-type hinge family is engineered for high-performance applications in kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, and other interior spaces. Known for its 3Way snap-on mounting system, the T-type hinge allows for fast, tool-free installation in three directions, saving time during assembly while maintaining precise alignment. These hinges ensure consistent performance over a lifetime.
ConfidentClose takes this family to the next level by offering a precision-engineered soft-close mechanism. Designed with extensive customer feedback, ConfidentClose ensures smooth, controlled closing with no rebounce, enhancing the end-user experience and reinforcing product quality. This advanced feature is a hallmark of Titus’ commitment to delivering reliability and satisfaction.
T-type PressTo: The Fastest Assembly on the Market
The T-type PressTo hinge enhances the T-type family by combining the 3Way snap-on system with a tool-free hinge cup fixing system for maximum efficiency. Installation is as simple as pressing the hinge into place, where the expanding cup forms a secure joint with materials like chipboard, MDF, and solid wood. This design eliminates visible gaps between the hinge and door, creating a durable and reliable connection.
ConfidentClose, integrated into the PressTo system, provides a premium soft-close experience that meets consumer expectations. Its precision damping technology ensures every door closes quietly and smoothly – adding another layer of refinement to this innovative solution.
T-type Pie-Cut Corner Hinge: Optimizing Corner Cabinet Access
The T-type Pie-cut corner hinge is specifically designed for corner kitchen cabinets. Featuring a unique double-lock opening system, it provides full access to cabinet interiors without hitting adjacent doors or cabinetry. A 70-degree opening angle on the first door and a double lock when both doors are opened make this hinge an efficient solution for maximizing access to tight corner areas.
The Pie-cut hinge includes cam adjustments for precise door gap alignment, ensuring smooth operation for doors of varying thicknesses (15-25mm). Its low cup depth and snap-on mounting system further streamline installation. Additionally, ConfidentClose allows these doors to operate with silent precision, delivering a seamless and satisfying user experience.
T-type Noir: Premium Aesthetic and Performance
For projects demanding a sophisticated finish, the T-type family also offers the Noir range, combining the same innovative features with a sleek dark finish. Titus Noir provides a modern aesthetic without compromising on strength, durability, or ease of installation. When paired with ConfidentClose, Noir hinges deliver both visual appeal and premium functionality.
S-type Hinges: Versatile Solutions for Various Applications
The S-type hinge family is known for its versatility and reliable performance across various applications, including kitchens and retail-ready-to-assemble (RTA) furniture. Designed for consistent operation with the same hinge cup technology as T-type-i and B-type-i3, the S-type-i3 hinge – the third generation of this range – performs well even in high-use environments. With a cup depth of 11.5mm, the S-type hinge is compatible with thinner cabinet doors (starting at 15mm), providing premium damping performance for less expensive furniture.
B-type Hinges: Entry-Level Affordability with Reliable Features
The B-type hinge family offers a cost-effective solution without sacrificing performance. With an 11.5mm cup depth, it shares the same adaptability as the S-type for thinner cabinet doors. Designed for residential and commercial applications, the B-type hinge ensures reliable performance for over 80,000 cycles.
The B-type-i3 range incorporates Titus’ premium features into a slide-on mounting design. This feature simplifies installation when used on tall doors (snap-on mounting is handier for regular 2-hinge doors), while maintaining the reliable performance Titus is known for, making it a practical and affordable choice for smaller-scale projects. Due to its affordability, this hinge is often chosen in RTA projects.
