Slow Close Spring/Piston (for kitchen press doors etc.)

    Just wondering where i could get a few slow close pistons for kitchen press doors online or local

    (the ones that catch the door on the last few inches as its closing and slowly let it close - hence to stop the kids slamming press doors when getting glasses out of them etc.)

    Its not the ones integrated in the hinge... as i dont want to go replacing a load of hinges... its a separate piston/spring that screws down to the press carcass that im looking for.

    Thanks.

    www.hafele.ie

    They have several different types, they start at about €1 a piece.
    Hafele are located in Kilcool in Wicklow and also now have a place in Santry.
    You can also get these from InHouse, I'd be pretty sure that most of the DIY rip off stores have them too... B&Q, woodies and the like.

    IKEA sell these for about €3 a pair if I recall correctly. They snap into your existing hinge. They don't fit all hinges though.
