Product Description

The C-81 Pivot Star is a brand new premium soft-close hinge from DTC. Winner of a 2017 iF Design Award for ground-breaking furniture hardware design. The stepless soft-close adjustment is done via cam adjustment on the hinge arm, meaning it is easily reachable after door is installed. Improved linkages inside the hinge improve the functioning so that a reduced amount of force is necessary to open the door, despite the increase in resistance during the longer soft-close stroke.
Product Advantages
- Adjustable Soft-Close Speed
- Reduced pull force means Easy-Open doors
