5.0 out of 5 stars High quality & well built
Worked great using a 3/4” plywood 48Wx36H.Easy to fold down & raise into place with built in locking mechanism.To install the portion that mounts to the wall, I recommended using a minimum length of 12” drill extension for the screws or get a 12” long drill screw bit. This makes installation a breeze.You may also want to get longer/heftier screws than the ones included & mount it to a stud.It’s rated for 330lbs but I personally wouldn’t put anything heavier than 50lbs on it.Overall, I’m satisfied with the product & price. I bought another set after I was pleased with the results/quality of my first pair.
5.0 out of 5 stars Folding cutting board
Product very well made and operates easily. Will be using it to add a cutting board to the end of an island in the kitchen that will fold down when not in use.
5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Cool!!!
I made an 'ironing' board for our quilt shop out of 3/4" nice plywood (24x60) I wanted to attach to one side our the cutting table and make it easy access without having to bring out and put away the old metal folding type. These drop hinges are just what I needed. I would not put #300 of anything with these hinges, unless you had 4x4 leg supports. One hinge didn't quite collapse all the way...just used a pair of channel locks to pull the back support closer together and done, works fine. Anything you buy today has to tweeked or adjusted anyway so it was no big deal. They don't come with screws and I am fine with that, I use what I want not what they give me. All-in-all, these are easy to install, not flippy-floppy and have a great price.
4.0 out of 5 stars Will work as a backyard temp table for parties
EDIT: Nov 2022 - these are still up with no warping or rust in desert SW climate. The hinge pin issue still bugs me but they are functional after 18 months exposed to the elements. Bumping it up a star.Let me preface this by saying I purchased these in July 2019. We had just bought a house with a much smaller yard than we’d had previously, and we were trying to find ways to host the same amount of people in less space. Having collapsible tables was one of the solutions we came up with…. I then got very sick, the pandemic hit, and you know the rest. SO – they never got installed or even opened. Fast forward almost two years, and we finally got around to getting this project done in April 2021. We purchased two pairs of the 14” brackets and mounted them on cinder blocks with 48”x16” pine boards attached to the top.Upon opening the packages we discovered that one set was brand new with plastic overwrap and all that. The second package appeared to be a return. There was no plastic overwrap, the finish was scratched and dented, and there were marker marks on them. We could have looked past all that (after all, you’re not going to see them), but unfortunately both of the brackets were damaged; the hinge pin that attaches at the bottom of the stationary arm was broken and thus the diagonal support just swung freely (another user’s photo shows this exact same failure). This was the exact same issue on both brackets, which leads me to believe that it is a faulty piece that will likely fail soon on the set that came new, as well. I did write the seller and ask if they had a replacement pin available or knew where one could be purchased (totally understand it’s been two years, so I was not requesting a replacement), but they just directed me to Bolo’s return policy, which of course is 30 days. So, no help at all in that regard. I have searched pretty extensively for something similar, but it’s not looking good.Installation, as others mentioned, was a PITA. The brackets have to perfectly level to sit correctly. What I did was attach the brackets to the board first, set the board on a table against the wall at the height I wanted, then marked the holes for the brackets on the wall. I then removed the brackets from the board, pre-drilled a single hole at a time in the wall, attached the bracket each time and RE-MARKED the next hole for drilling each time to ensure they were perfectly level and that the drill didn't skew the screws off center. Both came out perfect and level and look great...but...it was a PITA and took most of a Saturday to complete.For the time being, we have kept the broken pieces of the hinge pin and re-insert them when we want to use the table, but we will be looking for a more permanent fix in the near future. Like another user posted in the reviews, we will likely end up replacing with a bolt. I will get four because I do think the other two will probably fail like so many others have.All that said, I feel—for our purposes—these brackets are great and I don’t regret the purchase (just wish I’d opened and inspected them when they arrived). Mounted into the concrete cinder blocks they are very solid and don’t budge at all. We don’t put a bunch of weight on them – just plates, drinks, etc., but I feel they could definitely hold a lot more (though I wouldn’t test it with the rated 330 lbs). They’ve been installed outside for just over a month and they are holding up nicely. Time will tell, but so far no rust or warping. If it weren’t for the hinge pin issue and lackluster customer service, I’d give them 5 stars. As it is, I will give them 3.
5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy
Bought it to have a collapsible workbench to make candles in the winter. But being in my workshop, it ends up getting a lot of use for carving and chiseling, which can put a lot of force on it. Not sure how much it is rated for, but I have easily loaded it with 40 lbs passive weight, and probably 70 lbs active weight pressure from chiseling. Install took 20 minutes and only about 4 swears. I have saved it to buy 2 more sets later, both for hideaway counter space in the kitchen and as a writing space at work. Already bought a second one for my father. Totally recommended over the more expensive, less heavy duty one I saw at home depot
5.0 out of 5 stars Fix Sudden Bracket Release
This is a great product, but the lever release needed a fix on one. One release lever did not lock and would suddenly release totally. I noticed the lever end closest to wall was not able to fully move past a round locking bar, because it hit the bar instead of moving past it. I used a Dremel grinding tool to remove 1/32" of end lever end. This allows lever to fully clear the round bar.Now the bracket locks completely, and as designed, resulting in an excellent product. This was a manufacturing failure, not a design failure.
5.0 out of 5 stars Holds a kitchen cutting board
Spouse is wheelchair bound and couldn't reach countertop for cutting, etc. Used these with a heavy cutting board to make a work surface lower so she could access. Works like a champ. The hinges are super strong and easy to use. Very pleased with how they work. Was easy to mount them as well.
Sturdy and easy to install Brackets
These brackets are strong and very easy to install and what is nioce about them is that when they are NOT needed as permanent shelf brackets, they shelf can be removed or left in place and the bracket with or without the shelf can be lowered so it is out of the way. A good product. We do recommend this product.
Muy buenas pero no resisten
Son muy buenas y esbeltas, pero por nada soportan el peso de carga que anuncian, la mitad, sí seguro, tal vez siendo optimistas hasta un 75% pero no más... Las varillas planas tienden a pandearse con mayor carga dentro de los límites, así que ser precavidos con no cargarle mucho peso...
Bonne solution
J'ai pris ces équerres pliante pour faire une extension à mont établis mobile d'atelier. Elles fonctionnent très bien et sont solides.
Sehr gut
Hält seit mehr als 2 JahrenGute QualitätHabe es für ein Klapptisch genutzt. Hält ordentlich was aus
Solution pratique pour espaces réduits
Très pratique pour accrocher mes échelles dans un abri a remorques. Pouvoir rétracter les supports permet de passer sans difficulté.Comme je les utilise a l'extérieur sous abri mais avec présence d'humidité possible, le fait qu'ils soient en inox est un must.Attention, ne pas utiliser pour de fortes charges (toujours se limiter à 25 ou 30% de la charge statique maximale) et j'ai ajouté de la bande autocollante colorée sur les extrémités pour bien voir les supports et protéger ma tête...1 étoile en moins pour la relative fragilité et le risque de blessure
