Customers asked these questions about Hettich Push-to-Open Pin – Strong Long-Travel, Ø10 x 70mm

Answers from experts.

Pin Compatibility With Existing Non-Hettich Hinges

Will this pin work with my existing non-Hettich cabinet hinges?

While specifically optimised for Hettich Quadro V6 and Atira systems, this universal 10mm pin can effectively activate most standard handleless drawers and unsprung cabinet doors.

Installing Drill-In Pins With A Router

Do I need a router to install the drill-in version?

You only need a standard drill with a 10mm bit to create the recess for the drill-in model, making it a very clean and straightforward process for cabinetmakers and confident DIYers.

Spring Mechanism Longevity And Bounce Retention

Will the spring mechanism wear out or lose its bounce over time?

Manufactured by Hettich in Germany, the internal spring is cycle-tested for thousands of daily operations, ensuring it retains its powerful, responsive action for the lifetime of your kitchen.

Using Long-Travel Pins Vs Standard Push-To-Open Pins

Is this long-travel pin necessary, or can I just use a standard push-to-open pin?

The long-travel distance (70mm) ensures that when you press the door, it ejects far enough for your fingers to easily grip the edge, which is essential for heavy or thick handleless doors.

Door Gap Misalignment After Installing Push-To-Open Pin

What if my door gap is slightly off after I install the pin?

The tip of the Hettich pin features a built-in depth adjustment, allowing you to easily twist the head to fine-tune the door gap and achieve a perfectly flush, architectural shadowline.

Replacing Jammed Or Broken Push-To-Open Pins

If the pin ever gets jammed or broken, is it easy to replace?

Yes; whether you have the drill-in or screw-on housing model, the central pin mechanism can be quickly slipped out and replaced without having to remount the housing or drill new holes.
