Does anyone have these type of hinges installed and are actually using them? The ones I bought wiggle so much, do not sit flat when collapsed.
Looking for specifics and where you bought them. Amazon only has variations to these cheapos!
Maybe it’s my install, maybe just my understanding but the tops have to be held down to slide the drawers in. And that’s a no go!

I have some of the 45° opening ones for one of my storage. i was able to get them to lay flat and flush with the base, was not easy though. Took me a bit to actually get them to oepn and close, I also have to open it more towards the middle or it wont open. Overall through I absolutely love them and have a second set for the other side to make into another storage compartment.

Yeah they are a little wonky. My friend who is a carpenter said to use magnets to hold down so I will try these. If it doesn’t work I will rethink it. I really like the shelf aspect!!
Final punch out in the works. April can’t come fast enough (Moores Expo trip)
