The hinges are so sturdy, I wonder if I shouldn't add support to the box itself to ensure it doesn't crack (I used a soft wood). My two year old can open the toy box and it stays open (doesn't smash his fingers). It is hard for him to close the lid (perhaps he's less motivated?). It is extremely easy to install. This is a great product! Review: Perfect for toyboxes - I have 6 grandkids, and i made each one a toybox. These are the perfect hinges for them. I don't bother anymore with the other hinges and lid support combinations. The Rocklet hinges do both jobs! They are heavy duty and worth every penny! ## Features - Lid Support Hinge Heavy Duty: This torsion hinge lid support allows virtually any size lid to open smoothly, hold its position (when opened to 90 degrees, beyond that the lid will swing open), and then easily close. - Lid Stay Slow Closing: These rustic bronze lid stay torsion hinges support any size lid by simply adding additional hinges & can be installed for both overlay and flush fitting lids. Doors and lids will come down slowly and softly which eliminates slamming doors or smashed fingers. - High Raising: These rustic bronze cabinet door supports are specially designed for safety and the design of these heavy duty hinges ensures that the seat top raised position is at an over-center 90-degree angle to prevent the lid from falling unexpectedly. - Easy Installation: Our box hinges are designed to fit 3/4" thick stock, & are super easy to install (instructions included). For ultra-fast and easy installation on these heavy duty industrial hinges, use our Torsion Hinge JIG IT (sold separately). - Perfect Design: These soft close door hinges are the best solution for lids or flaps of furniture, cabinet, cupboard, or wooden storage boxes when a soft closing is required. Hinges are available in satin nickel & Rustic bronze colors, & 15, 30, 40, and 60 inch-pound ratings. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0066NHCBK | | Batteries Included? | No | | Batteries Required? | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #243,359 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #1,004 in Cabinet & Furniture Hinges | | Brand | ROCKLER | | Color | Bronze | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (47) | | Date First Available | June 22, 2008 | | Finish | Bronze | | Finish Type | Bronze | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 14.4 ounces | | Item model number | 733175313964 | | Manufacturer | Rockler Woodworking and Hardware | | Material | Zinc | | Maximum Weight Capacity | 40 Pounds | | Mounting Type | Door Mount | | Number Of Pieces | 2 | | Package Dimensions | 9.02 x 5.98 x 2.28 inches | | Part Number | 81174-207 | | Style | Rustic | | UPC | 733175313964 | | Unit Count | 2.0 Count | | Weight Limit | 40 Pounds | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ROCKLER - **Color:** Bronze - **Finish Type:** Bronze - **Manufacturer:** Rockler Woodworking and Hardware - **Material:** Zinc - **Mounting Type:** Door Mount - **UPC:** 733175313964 - **Unit Count:** 2.0 Count - **Weight Limit:** 40 Pounds ## Images ![Lid-Stay Torsion Soft Close Hinges (Pair of 2, Rustic Bronze) – 40” Pound Lid Support Soft Close Hardware for Cabinets – Bronze Lid Hinge Support - Cast-Zinc Heavy Duty Hinge Hardware - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61igLk65SJL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I used a pair of 40# hinges. They are very stiff and hard to open. Dry lubricant did not help. Any solutions?** A: There is no adjustment on particular hinges. They are made with several options of stiffness and you need to determine how heavy your lid is…measured in foot-pounds. There is a simple formula. The #15 and #30 are for lighter lids. #60 is real hefty and difficult to open by hand. **Q: What is the word thickness that fits over** A: 3/4 inch thick. Not 3/4 plywood because it is 1/32 thinner, or 23/32 **Q: how do you know what size hinge to use?** A: I had no idea so I got two of the 40 inch pound for use on a toy chest. I think a single one would,have been plenty as the two make it difficult for the kid to close. I would have put one in the middle and used regular hinges on the sides of it and saved $$&. **Q: Does the jig come with the 2 pack hinges or do you have to buy it separate?** A: No. the Rocklers I bought did not come with a jig. I think an average to good woodworker could do without.By the way, I have 2 15inch-pounders for sale. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sturdy and very effective *by C***E on January 27, 2014* Perfect for a large toybox.
