FAQs

What is the main advantage of the Tip-On system?

The main advantage is the ability to open doors with a simple tap, enabling a handle-less, minimalist design.

Is this set suitable for all cabinet door sizes?

No, this specific set is optimized for large doors, particularly those over 1300mm in height.

What is the minimum door gap achievable?

With the included adapter plate, a minimal door gap of 1.5 mm is possible.

Does this system include a soft-close feature?

It features low-noise closing due to the adhesive plate meeting plastic components, which contributes to a softer close than a purely mechanical system.

How is the adapter plate used?

The in-line adapter plate is used for convenient mounting of the Tip-On mechanism directly onto the cabinet.

What is the output path of the Tip-On mechanism?

The output path, or the distance the mechanism pushes the door open, is 38 mm.

Can I install this on existing cabinets?

Yes, it can be installed on existing cabinets provided they are suitable for handle-less designs and the dimensions are compatible. Precise alignment is key.

Troubleshooting

Door does not open when tapped

Ensure the Tip-On mechanism is correctly aligned and the strike plate on the door is properly positioned. Check if the magnetic hold is too strong or if there is any obstruction.

Door does not close securely

Verify the strength of the magnet and the placement of the adhesive plate. Adjust the position of the strike plate on the door if necessary.

Mechanism is noisy

Confirm that the adhesive plate is making contact with the plastic components during closing. Ensure no debris is interfering with the mechanism.

Door gap is too wide

Re-adjust the mounting of the in-line adapter plate and the strike plate on the door to achieve the minimum 1.5mm gap.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a clean, handle-less aesthetic.
  • Offers convenient push-to-open functionality.
  • Ensures quiet and soft closing.
  • Accommodates very narrow door gaps.
  • Specifically suited for large cabinet doors.

Cons

  • Requires precise installation for optimal performance.
  • May not be suitable for very heavy doors without additional support.
  • The 38mm output path might be insufficient for certain specialized applications.
  • Requires a separate mechanism to keep the door fully closed if there's no magnetic hold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Installation involves mounting the Tip-On mechanism to the cabinet using the provided in-line adapter plate. Precise alignment is crucial to achieve the minimal door gap. Ensure the strike plate on the door is correctly positioned to engage with the magnetic Tip-On unit.

Compatibility: This set is designed for cabinet doors over 1300mm in height. It is compatible with standard cabinet construction. Ensure sufficient clearance for the 38mm output path. While primarily for push-to-open, it can be integrated into systems where a soft-close mechanism is also present.

Care: Clean the Tip-On mechanism and adapter plate with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the finish. Regularly check the mounting screws for tightness.
