4 Pack Folding Brackets, TopDirect Lock Extension Support Bracket Foldable Self Lock Hinges with Screws for Table Bed Leg Feet

We're using this for our chicken tractor, to make it easier to raise and lower it when we move it, and we've really liked them. They are strong, easy to use, easy to install, and quite dependable so far. They've made it SO much easier to raise and lower the (pretty heavy) mobile coop, and we're pretty pleased with them so far.

Great design, fast delivery, good price.

Quality varies from bracket to bracket. Some screw holes difficult to access. Functional enough for the money.

EASY TO INSTALL AND LEGDS GO UP SMOOTHLY ON MY TABLE FOR STORAGE

I wanted to repurpose an old desk top into a craft table and liked the idea of being able to fold it up. These leg hinges worked as advertised, but I am not an expert at folding table engineering. I want to share my experience with others who are not experts. It didn't take me long to realize that the legs needed to be stablized, so I used some scrap wood to stabilize the legs. I did it in a way that two legs will fold at the same time. The table needed more stability and after some pondering and trial and error, I came up with a crosswise stabilizer that is removable. The removable crosswise stablizer was the key to a successful project. If I ever do another folding table project, I will work in the need to stablize the table from the beginning. BTW, the hinges were a little stiff but a quick squirt of WD40 took care of that.

Used these to make fold down wheels for a chicken tractor. These cannot support much weight before they bend and twist. You also need to be aware that when releasing them, if they are under load there is nothing to resist that weight and they will snap down if you don't have something else to catch that weight. Lastly, they will rust so don't use them outdoors. Giving them three stars even though I had a 1-start experience simply because I think I was asking too much of these little things. They would be fine for cabinets and light woodworking, there's nothing 'heavy duty' about them

My son wanted to make a desk (he is homeschooled). He had been watching me make mine and decided he wanted one too (that he made). It's a simple desk, but one of his requirements was that he could fold up the legs and carry it around. I don't know why he wanted that, but he did :)So we made the desk and we put these leg hinges on them. They work really well and the desk is very sturdy when opened. We have no fear of them collapsing or folding on their own. now, my son does not use this feature a lot because he says the desk is too heavy, but I figured some lessons are best learned through experience.When he is done using it as a desk, we can always use it as a collapsible table/desk. If I ever have to create another folding table/desk, I will most definitely be using these hinges again.

Poor quality control.Firstly, Very large sprue left within the mechanism making it impossible to close defeating the entire purpose. Since installing and uninstalling original working piece now has holes that make it difficult to get a good grip using the screws that come with it again.** They're not stripped but anyone knows that working with wood you only get a solid first attempt and anything after that is never as tight.Secondly, many of the holes they advertise are right behind a part of the mechanisms making them completely useless for installation.Lastly, they advertise locking in both positions but the "folded" position of the locking mechanism doesn't work for any installed purpose, the angle it is manufactured at is very acute, using 36" legs doesn't even get close to being able to lock in position so I'm unsure of how this was tested or approved.Very poor quality. Do not buy.
