The B2C Oil Dawn Strut is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to add smooth, controlled motion to their cabinet doors, particularly shoulder flap cabinets. Its primary benefit is the oil shock absorber mechanism, which prevents abrupt falls and ensures a soft opening. A caveat to consider is that it requires compatible hinges for installation, and is best suited for cabinet fronts up to 600 mm.

The primary advantage is its oil shock absorber mechanism, which provides a smooth, cushioned, and controlled opening for cabinet doors, preventing them from falling abruptly.
The strut is hinge-compatible, meaning it works with standard cabinet hinges. However, the specific type and compatibility of your existing hinges should be verified before installation.
This strut is suitable for cabinet fronts with a height of up to 600 mm.
The 'N' stands for Newtons, which indicates the strength of the strut. You should choose the appropriate strength based on the weight and size of your cabinet door for optimal performance.
Yes, the B2C Oil Dawn Strut is designed to be versatile and is compatible with both solid fronts and aluminum profile fronts.
Each set of the B2C Oil Dawn Strut is individually packaged to ensure it arrives safely and is protected during shipping and storage.
The strut offers an approximate 90° opening angle. However, the exact angle can depend on the specific hinge used in conjunction with the strut.
Ensure the correct strength (N) option was selected for the door's weight. The 60N option is for lighter doors, while 150N is for heavier ones. Check for any obstructions preventing smooth movement.
The oil shock absorber may be faulty or the strut may not be installed correctly. Verify the installation according to the manual and ensure the strut is properly seated and secured.
Check if the mounting screws are loose. A quiet hum is normal, but loud grinding or squeaking may indicate an issue. Ensure the strut is not binding against anything.
The opening angle is dependent on the hinge used. Ensure the hinge is functioning correctly and allows for the full range of motion required by the strut. Re-check strut and hinge alignment.
Setup: Installation is designed to be straightforward. Ensure you have the correct type of cabinet hinges. Align the strut with the cabinet frame and door according to the included instructions, using the provided screws and mounting hardware. Mark the mounting points carefully before drilling.
Compatibility: This strut is compatible with most standard cabinet hinges and can be used with both solid wooden fronts and aluminum profile fronts. It is specifically recommended for shoulder flap cabinets and supports front heights up to 600 mm. Ensure you select the appropriate strength option (60N, 80N, 150N) based on the weight and size of your cabinet door.
Care: To maintain performance, periodically check that all mounting screws are tight. Clean the strut with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish and internal mechanism.
