8050 EZ Hinged Door Slide with 20lb Capacity, Anochrome, 22", Polybag

8050 EZ Hinged Door Slide For Overhead Cabinets

8050 EZ hinged door slide is an up and under flipper slide from Knape and Vogt that supports a 20 lb class per pair load, so overhead doors can move smoothly while staying within the rated capacity for standard multimedia or workspace cabinet doors. The 22 inch length matches common cabinet door widths where an up and under motion is needed, giving the door enough travel to clear the opening before tucking up. As an up and under flipper slide, this hardware lets a hinged door roll inside the cabinet instead of swinging out, which helps keep doors out of the work zone in multimedia and workspace components. The product is part of the Overhead Flipper Slides category, so it is intended for overhead applications where doors travel up and inside the cabinet rather than to the side.

Key Flipper Slide Details That Support Daily Use

• KV Model KV8050 20 lb class per pair rating keeps door loads aligned with the slide design, supporting typical overhead cabinet doors in multimedia and workspace installations.
• Up and under flipper slide product class guides the motion path so the hinged door moves up and inside the cabinet opening instead of projecting into the room.
• Mounts to the inside of the cabinet sidewall, which sets a consistent reference surface for installers and helps keep door travel parallel to the cabinet interior.
• One-piece, non-marring roller travels with the door, helping the movement stay smooth while protecting the cabinet interior and door surface from roller marks.
• Permanently staked hinge pin locks the hinge connection in place at the factory, reducing play at the pivot point for repeatable door motion over the slide length.

Mounting And Motion Setup For This Flipper Slide

This Knape and Vogt up and under flipper slide mounts directly to the inside of the cabinet sidewall, so installers work from a flat, structural surface when laying out screw locations and aligning both sides. With a 22 inch length, the slide positions the hinged door to travel a predictable path into the cabinet, helping cabinetmakers plan face frame or frameless clearances around the overhead opening. The 20 lb class per pair rating defines the door and front panel load these slides are intended to carry, which supports consistent motion when matched to typical overhead multimedia or workspace cabinet doors.

Where This Up And Under Flipper Slide Fits Best

Overhead Multimedia And Workspace Cabinet Applications

This Knape and Vogt 8050 EZ hinged door slide is listed under Multimedia and Workspace Components and Overhead Flipper Slides, so it is suited to overhead cabinets where doors need to clear work surfaces or equipment by rolling inside the cabinet. The up and under flipper slide product class means the hinged door lifts and then retracts into the cabinet interior, keeping the door away from monitors, tools, or documents during use. Because the slide mounts to the inside of the cabinet sidewall, it works with cabinet constructions that provide a solid side panel for mounting the hardware, giving fabricators a clear mounting reference in shop layouts. The 22 inch length helps match the slide to wider overhead doors often found in multimedia stations or workspace storage, allowing the panel to move fully clear of the opening before tucking up. In daily use, this motion path helps keep the opening unobstructed for access while the door is stored above the cabinet interior rather than swinging through the user area.

Details That Support Smooth, Repeatable Door Motion

The KV8050 20 lb class per pair rating sets an intended load range that supports controlled door travel when paired with appropriate door sizes for overhead use. The one-piece, non-marring roller is designed to travel along the slide while contacting cabinet and door surfaces gently, which helps protect finished interiors from scuffs while the door moves in and out. A permanently staked hinge pin locates the hinge connection securely, which reduces pivot looseness at the joint and supports more consistent alignment of the door edge to the cabinet face during repeated cycles. Mounting the slide to the inside of the cabinet sidewall places the hardware in a fixed, square location relative to the cabinet opening, helping craftsmen keep both slides in plane so the hinged door tracks evenly on both sides. The 22 inch slide length gives the motion enough travel for the up and under action to bring the door fully into the cabinet interior, supporting clear access to contents without the panel hanging in the workspace.
