3 of 4 hinges are working. Furniture was baught at XXLutz in DE. After 6 years one ot the hinges mounting plates broke. We tried to reach the german support by phone and also email, but withou success.
Other possibilities to get a hinge sparepart we could not find. Now I have to think about replacement including new holes, etc...
Review subject:
The Titus Plus “Universal Soft Close Mechanism”
Product Application:
Enables cabinet doors (eg in the kitchen) close quietly
Summary Review:
This is undoubtedly one of the finest small accessories I have ever bought, and I have bought countless numbers in the broad area of DIY, over ‘more years than I care to remember’!!!
Review Details:
-So simple to use/install
-Is discretely placed beside the hinge
-The claim of “Universal” application rings right
-One Titus+ soft closer is typically enough per cabinet door
-Very cost effective
Perhaps I can explain this last attribute;
A “standard sprung” cabinet hinge is relatively cheap. Whereas, a “soft close” version is not.
For example; compare a 2 pack of 110mm ‘Standard’ & ‘Soft Close’ hinges by a well known brand, on a well known online sales platform, and the price difference is €7.15 V’s €16.95.
So, if I buy a 2 pack of ‘S’ hinges and a single Titus+ SC accessory, instead of just buying the 2 pack of SC hinges I save almost 50% (€8.65 V €16.95) a heck of a difference in a context of a house fit out.
I cannot yet comment on durability, however, my instinct on this point is positive as the ‘housing’ feels durable and the ‘piston’ which moves smoothly looks like it’s steel.
Finally I see Titus+ is European, actually better again, it’s packaging says “Made in Slovenia”.
Fair play Slovenian Titus on a smashing piece of small product engineering.
Footnote to B&Q:
Credit for stocking this product. Perhaps you could consider some further rebalancing in your product portfolio towards local European & UK products. Everything doesn’t have to come from China!!! And Quality speaks louder than ever in these days of scarce resources
