Sugatsune SLDL-6 swing down mechanism is a vertical swing down mechanism designed for taller, heavier downward-opening doors with an 11-14lbs door weight range, so it supports fronts in that load band without over- or under-assist. The mechanism uses a unique swing down action, so the door moves in a controlled arc rather than simply dropping, which helps maintain predictable clearances in tight cabinetry layouts. The spring gently opens the door after pulling it forward 4-3/4" - 5-15/16" (120 - 150 mm), so the user does the initial pull and the hardware completes the motion smoothly. This same spring action soft closes to prevent slamming, which reduces impact on the door, cabinet, and hinges during daily use. As part of the Sugatsune SLDL Series, this unit suits projects calling for consistent performance across multiple downward-opening doors.
The SLDL-6 vertical swing down mechanism supports taller, heavier downward-opening doors by working within its 11-14lbs weight range, so it is intended for fronts that need controlled vertical movement rather than simple top-hinged action. Its spring gently opens the door after pulling it forward 4-3/4" - 5-15/16" (120 - 150 mm), so the motion begins with a short, defined user pull distance and then transitions to assisted travel. The soft-close function to prevent slamming means the closing stroke is slowed at the end of travel, which helps protect finished surfaces in work surface and table applications. The adjustable lift-assist feature refines the opening force to best match the door's size and weight, allowing practical tuning across different fronts using the same SLDL-6 model.
The Sugatsune SLDL-6 vertical swing down mechanism is specified for taller, heavier downward-opening doors in work surface and table applications, so it suits fronts that open downward rather than swinging side-to-side. Its 11-14lbs door weight rating targets doors in that specific mass range, which aligns with many heavier fronts found in lift systems and lid supports and stays. The unique swing down mechanism creates a vertical swinging motion, so the door moves in a controlled arc that suits cabinetry requiring a defined opening path. Because the spring gently opens the door after a 4-3/4" - 5-15/16" (120 - 150 mm) pull, users experience a predictable transition from manual to assisted motion on these downward-opening fronts.
The SLDL-6 adjustable lift-assist feature refines the opening force to best match the door's size and weight, so installers can adjust the feel of the motion within the 11-14lbs range rather than accepting a fixed spring rate. Its 3-way adjustability provides vertical plus or minus 1/4" (6 mm), horizontal plus or minus 1/8" (2.5 mm), and tilt plus or minus 5 degrees, giving three planes of fine-tuning after mounting. This vertical adjustment range allows raising or lowering the door relative to the cabinet, which helps level multiple downward-opening fronts side by side. The horizontal adjustment shifts the door plus or minus 1/8" (2.5 mm), which is useful for centering gaps between adjacent components. The tilt adjustment of plus or minus 5 degrees allows correcting door angle, which helps align top and bottom edges parallel to surrounding surfaces.
The SLDL-6 vertical swing down mechanism is designed for downward-opening doors with an 11-14lbs door weight range, so it operates properly on fronts sized and built within that load band.
The SLDL-6 uses a spring that gently opens the door after pulling it forward 4-3/4" - 5-15/16" (120 - 150 mm), turning a short manual pull into a smooth assisted opening stroke.
The SLDL-6 soft closes to prevent slamming, so the door slows near the end of travel, reducing impact, noise, and stress on the cabinet and hardware during repeated use.
The SLDL-6 adjustable lift-assist feature refines the opening force to best match the door's size and weight, allowing tailored motion characteristics for each 11-14lbs downward-opening door.
The SLDL-6 offers vertical plus or minus 1/4" (6 mm), horizontal plus or minus 1/8" (2.5 mm), and tilt plus or minus 5 degrees adjustment, supporting precise alignment of downward-opening doors.
The SLDL-6 is a vertical swing down mechanism for taller, heavier downward-opening doors, providing a controlled swing down action suited to work surface and table applications.
The Sugatsune SLDL-6 swing down mechanism focuses on taller, heavier downward-opening doors within the 11-14lbs range, so it targets fronts that benefit from assisted motion and soft closing. Its unique swing down mechanism and spring that gently opens after a 4-3/4" - 5-15/16" (120 - 150 mm) pull support controlled, repeatable operation in work surface and table projects. With adjustable lift-assist and 3-way adjustability in vertical, horizontal, and tilt planes, it offers on-hardware tuning to align door feel and gaps. Selecting the SLDL-6 aligns a project with these defined performance parameters for downward-opening fronts.
