Installation Notes
This mixed bracket layout gives better fitting flexibility where the box side needs offset support and the lid underside benefits from a lower profile mount.
Use one strut on each side, set the upper mounting point nearer the hinge than the front edge, and keep mild compression in the closed state.
- Install one strut on each side of the lid
- Check both sides are mounted evenly for balanced lift support
- Confirm the lid closes with slight compression remaining in the strut
Best-Fit Applications
Recommended uses include box lids, storage benches, toy chests, utility lids and furniture projects where supported opening and reduced drop risk are important.
- Storage chest lids
- Toy box lids
- Bench storage lids
- Furniture or utility box lids
Compatibility Check
Compatibility note: the right strut depends on lid weight, lid depth and bracket position. Always calculate the lid panel on its own, not the box contents.
This 300mm 200N configuration is intended for customers who need a soft close lid support solution matched to the correct lid size and force range for UK use.
