Lift Assist Damper with 95 Deg Stopper Medium Torque supports panels with a lift-assist function that helps children, elderly, and disabled to open and close, so projects can serve a wider range of users without changing the basic cabinet layout. The soft-close damper eliminates panel from slamming shut on hands and fingers, reducing impact on the panel and lowering the chance of pinch points in day-to-day use. Damper function engages at low angles, so the panel does not need to be fully opened to soft-close, which is useful where clearances are tight or the panel travel is limited by surrounding fixtures. A stopper holds panel at 95 degrees to prevent over-rotation, protecting hinges and adjacent surfaces from contact. Surface-mounting allows retrofit into existing countertop passages, letting installers upgrade safety and motion control on already-installed work surfaces.
The surface-mounting design allows retrofit into existing countertop passages, so installation can be planned around finished cutouts rather than rough framing. Because the lift-assist function helps children, elderly, and disabled to open and close, installers can target applications where user strength varies, such as shared work surfaces. The soft-close damper eliminates panel from slamming shut on hands and fingers, so hinge alignment and stop placement can focus on smooth travel instead of managing impact. Since damper function engages at low angles, layout can be optimized even when a full 95-degree opening is rarely used. The stopper holds panel at 95 degrees to prevent over-rotation, which provides a clear mechanical limit to reference during mounting and adjustment work.
This lift assist damper functions within the Lid Supports and Stays product class, so it is suited to lifting and controlling panels in work surface and table applications. The lift-assist function helps children, elderly, and disabled to open and close, which aligns well with accessible workstations and multi-user countertop passages that serve mixed-ability users. In these locations, soft-close damper action eliminates panel from slamming shut on hands and fingers, supporting safer operation in busy environments. Because damper function engages at low angles, it supports installations where users frequently open the panel only partway, such as quick-access countertop passages. The stopper holding the panel at 95 degrees to prevent over-rotation is useful where the open panel needs a defined stop that avoids nearby walls, cabinets, or equipment.
This medium torque lift assist damper balances support and motion control so panels move in a controlled way as users open and close them. With soft-close damper action that eliminates panel from slamming shut on hands and fingers, hardware alignment can be tuned for smooth travel rather than resisting impacts. Because damper function engages at low angles, the deceleration begins early in the stroke, which can reduce stress on hinges and mounting points as the panel approaches closed position. The stopper that holds the panel at 95 degrees to prevent over-rotation creates a fixed reference angle that helps maintain consistent open position across multiple units on a project. Surface-mounting allows retrofit into existing countertop passages, so installers can standardize on this LAD-ST-M lift assist damper across both new and upgrade work.
This lift assist damper is categorized under Work Surface & Tables and Lid Supports and Stays, so it is designed for lifting and controlling countertop passages and similar panels.
The soft-close damper eliminates panel from slamming shut on hands and fingers, so closing motion is slowed and impact is reduced near the end of travel.
Damper function engages at low angles, so partial openings still benefit from controlled soft closing, which helps when clearances limit the full swing.
The stopper holds panel at 95 degrees to prevent over-rotation, giving the panel a defined fully open position that avoids contact with nearby surfaces.
Surface-mounting allows retrofit into existing countertop passages, so installers can add lift assist and soft-close control to already-installed openings.
The lift-assist function helps children, elderly, and disabled to open and close, providing easier operation for users who may have limited strength.
The LAD-ST-M Lift Assist Damper with 95 Deg Stopper Medium Torque from Sugatsune America combines lift-assist function, soft-close damping, low-angle engagement, and a 95-degree stopper for controlled panel motion. Surface-mounting allows retrofit into existing countertop passages, which supports both upgrades and new installations within work surface and table projects. For projects that need panels that open with reduced effort and close without slamming on hands and fingers, this lift assist damper offers a defined way to add motion control and accessibility.
