Description: Hardware Philosophy Four Flowers Hinges 4" - Set of 2 This brass hinge set features a beautiful and sophisticated design symbolizing a bouquet of flowers. This design is particularly common among Chinese furniture from the Qing Dynasty (1634-1911), but can liven up any piece of furniture. SET OF 2: Total assembled measurement is 3.86"W x 3.94"H x 0.43"D (98mm x 100mm x 11mm) DECORATIVE BRASS HINGE: Bring classic elegance to doors, cabinetry, and kitchen cupboards, or in a wooden box project such as a gift, jewelry or wine box; These hinges can also be used horizontally, such as on storage chests, wooden boxes, or cabinets BRASS HINGE ACCESSORIES: Includes a set of 0.6-inch (15mm) nails; Use a hard tipped rubber mallet to prevent impact marks on the nails; This provides softer contact than hammers with metal heads CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Wipe it quickly and lightly with a rag coated with soap and water or rubbing alcohol; Then, rub it with a light-colored oil such as olive oil; To remove some of the tarnish and make it shinier, use a thin coating of commercial brass polish; Coat a rag with brass polish and let it dry out for a few hours before polishing to ensure that you don't overpolish LIFT OFF HINGES: Detachable hinges allow you to quickly remove a door from its frame without unscrewing the hinges; If used vertically, the left or right side mounts on the wall or frame, depending on whether the door pushes in or pulls out; The male leaf has a load-bearing pin attached and is installed to a stationary surface; The female leaf has no pin and is installed to the door; This enables the female leaf to be detached from the male leaf without removing either leaf Item AF-0113 Installation Guide Chinese brass hardware is easy to install. The first thing to get familiar with are commonly used joining pins: Soft Joining Pins Made of bendable metal tongs that can be bent and hooked into the opposite side of the wood. Normally used for pulls, handles, and other items where lateral pulling strength is required. Hard Joining Pins Made of thick metal tongs that can be bent but not hooked around the opposite side of the wood. Normally used for bolts and hooks where vertical strength is required. Nailing Pins Made of one long, straight metal spear that is nailed into the wood. Like hard joining pins, they are used for bolts and hooks where vertical strength is required. You'll need a few basic tools: Needle nose pliers (recommended - but any type of pliers will do.) Hammer Drill bit (same width as the pin you're going to install) Power drill Installation of Soft Joining Pins For this example, we've chosen a classic fish pull to install. Drill a hole the same width as the pin. In this example we're drilling a 1/4" hole for a 1/4" wide pin. Assemble your piece of hardware and insert in the hole. Using the needle nose pliers, bend the tip of the pin over so that it's pointing towards the wood. Making sure that the display side of the piece is pulled tight, nail the end of the pin into the wood. Nail the pin flat. Installation of Hard Joining Pins In this example we've chosen a cabinet face plate to install. Drill a hole the same width as the pins. In this example we're drilling a 1/4" hole for a 1/4" pin. Assemble your piece of hardware and insert in the hole. Using the needle nose pliers, spread the pins flat against the wood. Making sure that the display side of the piece is pulled tight, nail the pin flat against the wood. Note: Unlike soft folding pins there's no need to hook the end of the pin into the wood - just nail it flat. Installation of Nailing Pins In this example, we've chosen a cabinet strip pull to install. Drill a hole the same width as the pins. In this example we're drilling a 3/16 " hole for a 3/16 " pin. Assemble your piece of hardware. Hammer the nailing pin into the pilot hole. We recommend using a piece of wood as a buffer to avoid damaging the hardware. It's usually a good idea to file or clip the end of the nailing pin down if it is protrudes out the opposite side of the wood (this can be done before installation as well). Nailing pins are as strong as very thick nails.
