This Tiberham Drafting Table Locking Hinge is designed for DIY enthusiasts and craftspeople needing adjustable support for surfaces like drafting tables, desks, and bed tops. Its key benefit is offering flexible height adjustment and secure locking, allowing users to set and hold surfaces at optimal angles for comfort and usability. A potential caveat is that it's best suited for applications where a tilt-lift is explicitly needed and may require proper installation to function as intended.

The hinge is made of heavy-duty zinc alloy, known for its strength and corrosion resistance.
The hinge offers 12 adjustment points for vertical lifting, providing a high degree of flexibility.
The hinge has a maximum operating arc of 105 degrees from horizontal.
Yes, it can be used for bed tops or lids where an adjustable tilt-lift function is desired, provided the weight is within the hinge's capacity and it's properly installed.
The product description does not specify if screws are included; typically, mounting hardware is sold separately or must be sourced based on the specific application.
To fold the hinge down, lift the surface beyond its highest adjustment setting. This action disengages the ratchet and allows the hinge to collapse smoothly.
While made of corrosion-resistant zinc alloy, prolonged exposure to harsh outdoor elements is not recommended. It is best suited for indoor applications.
Ensure the surface is lifted beyond the initial setting, allowing the ratchet mechanism to engage. Check that the hinge is installed with the correct orientation and that no obstructions are preventing the mechanism from working.
Confirm that the hinge is installed correctly and that the surface being supported is within the recommended weight limits. Ensure no debris is lodged within the hinge mechanism. Gentle wiggling might help release a stuck position.
Verify that the hinge is fully engaged in its locking position. If the issue persists, the weight of the surface may be exceeding the hinge's capacity or installation may need to be reinforced.
While made of zinc alloy for corrosion resistance, prolonged exposure to moisture can cause minor surface issues. Wipe clean with a dry cloth and ensure the area is dry. For significant corrosion, replacement may be necessary.
Setup:
Compatibility:
This hinge is compatible with wood, particleboard, or other rigid materials commonly used for tables, desks, and lids. It is best suited for applications where a tilt-lift mechanism is required, such as on drafting tables, desk lids, bed tops, and drawing boards.
Care:
Wipe the hinge clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which could damage the zinc alloy finish. Periodically check that screws are tight and the hinge mechanism moves smoothly. Lubrication is generally not required due to the durable construction.
