Extended Product Information

FAQs

What type of hinges is this damper compatible with?

This damper is designed for Hettich Intermat 9943, Intermat 9944 (110-degree), and Slide On 2333 series hinges.

Can I use this on any cabinet door?

No, it is specifically designed for full overlay applications and compatible Hettich hinge series. It is not suitable for inset or half-overlay doors.

How do I adjust the soft-close effect?

The cushioning effect is infinitely adjustable via the setting wheel located on the damper itself. Turn clockwise to increase cushioning and counter-clockwise to decrease it.

When should I use two dampers per door?

For cabinet doors weighing over 6.5 kg, it is recommended to use two dampers for optimal and balanced soft-close performance.

Can this damper be added to existing cabinets?

Yes, it is designed as a retrofit accessory that can be attached to compatible cup-mounted Hettich hinges.

What is the material of the damper?

The damper is constructed from nickel-plated die-cast zinc, providing durability and resistance to corrosion.

How many dampers are included in a pack?

This product is sold as a 2-pack, meaning you receive two soft-close dampers.

Troubleshooting

Door closes too quickly or slams.

Increase the cushioning by turning the adjustment wheel clockwise. Ensure two dampers are used for heavier doors (over 6.5 kg).

Door closes too slowly or does not fully close.

Decrease the cushioning by turning the adjustment wheel counter-clockwise. Verify that the damper is not obstructed and is correctly installed.

Damper is noisy.

Check for proper alignment and secure mounting. Ensure the damper is not rubbing against any part of the cabinet or door. Re-adjust the cushioning level.

Damper does not seem to engage.

Confirm compatibility with your specific Hettich hinge model (Intermat 9943/9944/Slide On 2333). Ensure the damper is correctly attached to the hinge cup.

Setup:
