Winter Projects: Gas struts to cabinet doors

[Jeff L]

Stateroom storage cabinets doors. Gas struts added
Install took me less than an hour for all (6) . Really makes these cabinets more usable
Best $17.00 spent in a long time..
Amazon:
JAZE 6 Pcs 100N/22.5lb Gas Strut Lift Support Cabinet Door Lift Pneumatic Support

How do you rate the force on the gas shocks? Too much, too little or perfect? I have been contemplating this on my 340 as these top hinged cabinet doors are such a pain. Thanks

I think they are perfect
Even better wife is thrilled

For $17 definitely worth a shot. I can't stand having to hold the doors up while putting things away.

Will not work on my cabinets.... 5.5" to 7.5" @ 20 lbs force is what I need. Thanks though !
