Cabinet Door Restraint, 8 Inch Stainless Steel Cupboard Hinge Limiter Swing Restrictor Stopper, Flexible Braided Cable, Prevent Door From Opening Too Far Made in USA by Salt Life Solutions (2 Pack)

Product Information

You can limit how far your cabinet opens by using either a hinge restrictor clip or cabinet door restraints. These are both easy to add to existing cabinets and limit how wide the doors can open up. The plastic restriction clips get brittle and break easily. After all, they’re only made of plastic.

Our cabinet door restraint kits are the perfect way to prevent damage to your home, boat, camper or RV. We opted to go with the cabinet door restraints because I read that there are some issues with the hinge restrictor clips only being compatible with certain types of hinges. This is causing damage to the knobs and damage to the cabinets themselves. When the knobs hit the drywall, they cause dents and damage and when they hit the other knobs, they dent. Love them. They definitely stop the cupboard doors from hitting each other. Great little restrictor piece Hinge restrictor clips attach to the actual hinges of your cabinet door and keep them from opening all the way, but you have to know exactly what type of hinge you have and if it’s compatible with the clips.The plastic restriction clips put all of the stress and strain of limiting your door opening angle on the hinges themselves – something they are not designed to handle. This will cause premature failure of your cabinet hinges and possible damage to your cabinetry. String your screw through the other end of the restraint and screw into place. Again, be sure not to tighten it 100 percent of the way. Titus hinge angle restrictors limit the opening angle of cabinet doors and prevent damage to door or any adjacent object. Pre-drill a small hole in that spot. You do not need to go very deep. Be sure not to drill through the cabinet. This is just to get the screw started.

Our stainless steel cabinet door restraints are the superior choice compared to the plastic hinge restriction clips offered by others. Here’s why: Are you wondering how to keep your cabinet doors from swinging open too far? Are your cabinet doors hitting a wall? Are your cabinet doors hitting an appliance? Are your cabinet doors hitting a pendant light? Are your cabinet doors hitting another cabinet? If you answered yes to any of those questions, we have the perfect, simple solution for you. However, hinge restrictor clips are completely invisible once installed and just look like part of the hinge, so if that is important to you, these may be a good option. If you’ve installed cabinet restraint wires, you can change the angle by changing where the restraint is attached to the door or the cabinet. The wire remains the same length, so changing where it attaches will change how much the door can open. Cabinet door restraints are a simple wire that physically limits the door from opening any wider than you want it to.We opted for the cabinet restraint wire kit because we felt that would be the easiest way to solve the problem. Hinge restrictor clips attach to your hinges and limit the door opening to 86 degrees. This will keep them from banging into anything, just like you want.

Decide where you want the other end to go on the cabinet to hold the door to your preferred angle. Mark with pencil. Pre-drill in this spot. Also take a look at where the wall or other doors are and figure out where you want it to stop. If you’re looking to stop your door from hitting the wall, you only need to make sure it stops just off the wall. It’s tiny dings, but it bothers me and little dings aren’t easy to fix. And so I decided to investigate how to fix this problem! There are a couple of options on how you can fix this problem, but if you’re going for speed and ease, this is the way.After having these restraints up for almost two years, I can tell you that I absolutely stopped noticing that they are even there at all. And I certainly don’t miss the doors dinging up my walls!
