Is there a difference between hydraulic hinges and gas springs for a trap door?
There is no difference between gas springs and hydraulic hinges. Both objects have the same technique, namely that it is an object consisting of a cylinder with a piston. This cylinder can contains nitrogen which results in an elastic operation. Thanks to this resilient operation, the hydraulic hinges support an application in a variety of ways, like lifting, lowering and positioning. When choosing hydraulic hinges for an application, you can retain the following theory: the more gas in the cylinder, the higher the Newton (N) force thus the higher the resilience.
In other words: hydraulic hinges offer a multifunctional purpose because they can be used for all sorts of applications. Many people have already purchased hydraulic hinges for their awning windows, chest lids, RV entrance doors, hidden trap doors and more!
