Hinges are the most common small parts of furniture, but they play the most important role of connecting doors and windows. The installation of hinges is not difficult, but if you don't pay attention to some small keys, the experience of use may be affected, and there may appear some problem such as the door or window titles. Generally speaking, we should pay attention to the following six points when installing the hinges.

First, before the installation you should check whether hinges match the frame and the leaf of the door and window. Second, make sure that the hinge matches the length, width and height of the hinges. Third, do not forget to check if the hinge is connected with the suitable screws and fasteners. Fourth, the connection method of hinges should be matching the material of the door and window. For example, when the hinge is installed on the door with steel frame, one side of the hinge should be welded on the steel frame, and the other side should be connected with the wooden by wood screws. Fifth, when the two page-plates of the hinge are not asymmetric, you should identify which page plate should be connected with the door leaf, and which page plate should be connected with the door frame. Sixth, during installation, you should guarantee that the hinges on same door leaf are in the same vertical line, so as to avoid the door or window bounce.
