FAQs

What type of hinges is the Titus Glissando TL170 compatible with?

The TL170 is compatible with Titus B-Type and S-Type hinges that have a 170° opening angle.

How many soft-close mechanisms do I need per door?

You need one Titus Glissando soft-close mechanism for every two hinges on a door.

Can I use this on any cabinet hinge?

No, it is specifically designed for Titus B-Type and S-Type hinges with a 170° opening. Using it on incompatible hinges will not provide the intended soft-close function.

Is installation difficult?

The Glissando TL170 is designed as an easy add-on mechanism. Installation typically involves clipping or screwing it onto compatible Titus hinges, following the provided instructions.

What is the main benefit of using this product?

The primary benefit is preventing cabinet doors from slamming shut, which reduces noise and wear on the hardware.

How do I clean the soft-close mechanism?

Wipe it clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

Will this slow down how fast the door opens?

No, this mechanism only affects the closing speed. It ensures a controlled and gentle closure without impacting the door's opening motion.

Troubleshooting

Door does not close softly

Verify that the Glissando TL170 is correctly installed on compatible Titus 170° hinges. Ensure one mechanism is used per two hinges. Check for any obstructions preventing the door from closing fully.

Mechanism seems loose

Ensure the mechanism is securely clipped or screwed into place according to the installation guide. Re-attach if necessary, ensuring a firm connection.

Door closes too slowly or doesn't fully close

Check if the damping is too strong or if there is too much friction elsewhere. Ensure the correct number of mechanisms (one per two hinges) is installed. Adjustments may be needed based on door weight and size.

Squeaking or unusual noise during closure

This could indicate an issue with the hinge itself or improper alignment of the soft-close mechanism. Ensure both the hinge and the add-on are clean and correctly positioned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

This soft-close mechanism is specifically designed for Titus B-Type and S-Type hinges that offer a 170° opening angle. Ensure your existing hinges match these specifications before purchasing.

Setup:

  1. Identify the compatible Titus hinge on your cabinet door.
  2. Align the Glissando TL170 mechanism with the hinge according to the included instructions. Typically, it clips or screws into place.
  3. Ensure one mechanism is used for every two hinges on a single door for proper function.
  4. Test the door closure to confirm the soft-close action is smooth and effective.

Care:

  • Wipe the mechanism clean with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the internal damping components.
  • Periodically check that the mechanism is still securely attached to the hinge.
