Bery Mini
The BERY Mini soft close damper is a universal slam prevention device that ensures slot closing of cabinet doors and desk drawers. It will cause cabinet doors to slow down and come to a quiet stop even when they move at a high speed. Due to its operating principle the damping force is adapted to the weight of the door and the speed of its closure. The device uses air as damping medium and its operating principle and design are protected by patents.
The product is made of injection molded ABS plastic. Manufacturing and assembly conform to the requirements of ISO 9001: 2000. Materials and packaging used in or with the product are recyclable, they comply with EU requirements, and do not contain components that are poisonous or harmful to health.

INSTALLATION OF THE PRODUCT
- The number of hinges depends on the height and weight of the door panel
- Hinges should be installed with a reasonable large clearance between them to ensure stability
-
Load and height values are valid for a 600 mm wide door
-
The distance between hinges is up to 600 mm, or half the door width for glass/mini-hinges
The product reduces smoothly the closing force of hinges installed according to point 1, regardless of their number.
Normally, fitting a single BERY Mini to a door is sufficient for optimal closing.
Extreme circumstances, e.g. slamming with excessive force, and various contributing factors such as heavy door panels, heavy drawers, unstable doors (wooden frame, doors with aluminum frame, joined door panels) may necessitate installing a second BERY Mini device. In that case it is recommended that the two devices should be fitted symmetrically as follows:
- to the upper and lower panel of doors;
-
near the edges on both sides of doors and drawers that are closed by their own weight.

2. BERY MINI VERSIONS WITH Screw-mount adapters
Two different adapters have been designed for mounting with screws. Of these two versions the one that meets manufacturer requirements the best will be mass produced. Both types of adapters can be mounted simply with 2 screws. The first version of the adapter can be screw-mounted directly, while the second version uses a screwed mounting plate, and a slide-on adapter. Both versions offer the same functionality, they only differ in the way they are mounted, and BERY Mini can be inserted easily into either them.
