flip up door stays
10/16/18
Guys I have an application where I have to have 3 flip-up doors. The construction is face frame, inset door. I'm looking for hardware advice. Can I use my regular Blum inset hinges, then just add a stay of some type? Is there one you have used that you could recommend? The doors are 21"w x 18" h. Thanks

Blum Aventos are really nice but quite a bit more costly than clip hinges and some kind of stay I'm sure.

use Blum HK-XS with Blum inset hinges, we use all the time, works very nice

Look @ Sugatsune Slu-Elan door hardware. Very nice, also rebranded by Blum. A bit expensive.

I think Aventos are overrated
I would use the ones from Hafele or similiar

We've been liking the Salice Wind hinge since seeing it at IWF .

I’ve been using this one from the Richelieu book. It’s not fancy, but you can adjust the friction to the weight of the door so it functions real nice for a wide range of door sizes.

The Blum lift stay is deluxe. About twenty dollars per door, way easy install and we use our normal hinge. doesn't get any easier.
