Question 1

Does the listing include mounting hardware and fixings?

Accepted Answer

The listing covers the fitting itself against its article code and stated pack unit. Where fixings are not separately listed, check the carton contents against your carpenter's requirement before he starts. Fixings are cheap; a fitter standing idle waiting for them is not.

Question 2

How much weight will it carry?

Accepted Answer

Where the source listing states a load rating, that figure is for the fitting and not for the box or shelf attached to it, so deduct that weight first. Where no rating is stated, treat it as general storage duty rather than assuming it will take a concentrated load.

Question 3

Can I mix this with another brand of hardware?

Accepted Answer

Not within a single assembly, where both halves must be the same model. Across separate units you can, but different makes differ slightly in thickness and geometry, which shifts a front sideways a millimetre or two and shows up as an uneven reveal.

Question 4

Who should fit this - can a homeowner manage it?

Accepted Answer

A carpenter usually does, because the accuracy is in the marking rather than the fixing. Parts have to sit level and parallel; a couple of millimetres out and the assembly binds or sits crooked. Replacing like for like in an existing cabinet suits a careful DIY fitter.

Question 5

How do I make sure a replacement matches in two years?

Accepted Answer

Keep the article code with the job file. Hardware variants look nearly identical once out of the packet and often differ by a few millimetres, so quoting the code is what gets you the same part rather than something close enough to cause trouble later.

Question 6

What maintenance does it need?

Accepted Answer

Very little. Keep it clear of building dust during fitout, because grit in a moving mechanism is what makes hardware feel notchy a year later. Wipe rather than oil, since oil collects dust and generally does more harm than good on a plated finish.

Question 7

Can I order this in project quantities with a GST invoice?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Bulk hardware goes through RFQ, where you send the article codes and quantities and get a rate against the full list. GST invoicing is issued on every order, and contractors running several sites can use mobCredit to settle on terms.
