Review: Good Hinges For This Project - My wife and I own a fifth wheel RV. There are two steps leading up to the bathroom/bedroom area from the living area of the trailer. During a recent project I was working on in the trailer I needed to remove the stair treads (the tops of the stairs) and when I did I discovered that the RV manufacturer had not used the space "under" the stairs for any purpose. Storage space is always at a premium in an RV so my wife asked me if we could find a way to make the steps open like the lid of a chest so we could utilize the space. I turned to desertcart and found these hinges/lid supports. I like the fact that these hinges are designed to lift the lid up and away, meaning the lid does not extend past the back plane of the box like a piano hinge, or other simple hinges do. Also, these hinges are spring loaded which creates the support when the lid (stair) is open and puts slight downward on the lid (stair) when closed to help keep the lid closed. I read some of the other reviews which talk about the lack of installation instructions and they are correct, they are no installation instructions included. There is one picture on the product info page with gives a measurement of 1.5" from the back edge of the lid to the rear screw hole for the lid portion of the hinge. Any and all other measurements for installation has to be calculated by the installer. All-in-all I am pleased with the hinges. I just installed them yesterday so I cannot speak to long term durability.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there any method for determining the mounting locations?**
A: What i did was hold lid and hinge to chest and marked how it would open i advise usibg glue to screws to keep them secured

**Q: Why does the description say 20lbs, product features says 30 lbs and product name say 60 lbs?**
A: Our lid weighs maybe 20 lbs and we installed 2. It still wouldn’t hold it up.

**Q: The last photo makes it appear that these hinges, when opening, pull the seat inward away from a wall.  Is this a feature?**
A: That is correct. It is designed to pull away so that you can put the chest against the wall. They aren’t as strong so we also kept our locking mechanism on it.

**Q: How far away from the wall does this pull the lid? I would like to use this for a lid that is 1.75" and want to make sure it will still open.**
A: Ours is 3/4” lid, and it may have a 1/4” between the lid and the wall. That, and I don’t think it is strong enough to hold that thick of a lid.

Hinges work great. No instructions or screws included. Held up my bench covers just fine.

### ⭐ these will cause smashed fingers. definitely not soft close.
*by L***O on March 23, 2021*

these are definitely not soft close items. they will smash fingers. i installed these on my window seat (see photos). the seat weighs 17.8# (yes i weighed it). as you can see in the video, the lid slams shut (even with the addition of 2 softclose adapters). the installation was guess work as the only dimension given was for 1 set of horizontal holes. three tries to get the best location vertically. will now have to buy additional items to protect grandchildren from getting hurt. these are the worst items i have ever purchased on amazon and i purchase a lot of items.
