In the structure of the chassis and cabinet, hardware accessories are the heart of the cabinet and the key to supporting its performance. A high-quality chassis and cabinet cannot be separated from a complete set of hardware accessories, including hinges, handles, connecting rods, wind braces, pulleys, bolts, door closers, and other hardware. Seemingly inconspicuous hardware accessories play a crucial role.

一、五金件的好壞直接影響機箱機柜的壽命

1、 The quality of hardware directly affects the lifespan of the chassis and cabinet

其實決定機柜壽命長久的重要因素不只在于型材，更在于門窗五金本身。任何機柜都有一定的使用壽命；使用時間越長，五金配件損耗老化程度越嚴重。機箱機柜五金件對柜體使用年限的影響在于：當支撐機柜正常運作的五金配件因使用不當或使用時間過長而損壞、斷裂、生銹，機柜的實際功能將大幅減弱，其隱患也會隨之而來。這時候我們就需要對其進行維修保養或者換代了。一般來說正常使用或維護較好的五金件，其使用年限為更長。

In fact, the important factor that determines the longevity of the cabinet is not only the profile, but also the hardware itself of the doors and windows. Any cabinet has a certain service life; The longer the use time, the more severe the wear and aging of hardware accessories. The impact of chassis and cabinet hardware on the service life of the cabinet body is that when the hardware accessories that support the normal operation of the cabinet are damaged, broken, or rusted due to improper use or prolonged use, the actual function of the cabinet will be greatly weakened, and its safety hazards will also come with it. At this point, we need to repair and maintain it or replace it. Generally speaking, hardware that is in normal use or well maintained has a longer lifespan.

二、機箱機柜五金配件與機柜的性能直接掛鉤

2、 The hardware accessories of the chassis and cabinet are directly linked to the performance of the cabinet

門窗的綜合性能與門窗五金件的結構種類密切相關。比如說平開窗的承重配件有合頁、鉸鏈（滑撐）等，其作用在于保證平開窗的正常開啟，讓窗扇在日常開啟或者大風天氣下穩固不脫落，提升柜體的穩定性。

The comprehensive performance of doors and windows is closely related to the structural types of door and window hardware. For example, the load-bearing components of a casement window include hinges, hinges (sliding braces), etc. Their function is to ensure the normal opening of the casement window, ensure that the window sash is stable and does not fall off during daily opening or strong wind weather, and improve the stability of the cabinet.

再比如，機柜的鎖閉部件主要包括鎖點、鎖扣、傳動器、轉角器等。配合機箱機柜的密封系統，五金件的使用將對機柜的整體性能(防盜性、密封性、隔音效果、保溫性能等)產生重要的影響。另外機柜執手與聯動器也可以通過改變執手手柄的位置而實現各種開啟功能。

For example, the locking components of the cabinet mainly include locking points, locking buckles, actuators, corner devices, etc. In conjunction with the sealing system of the chassis and cabinet, the use of hardware components will have a significant impact on the overall performance of the cabinet (anti-theft, sealing, sound insulation, thermal insulation, etc.). In addition, the cabinet handle and linkage can also achieve various opening functions by changing the position of the handle handle.

三、機箱機柜五金件和門窗效果息息相關

3、 The hardware of the chassis and cabinet is closely related to the energy-saving effect of doors and windows

提高機箱機柜的效果在于提升機柜整體的密封性能，而提高機箱機柜密封性能則需要依靠密封膠條以及門將密封膠條壓緊來達成。

The key to improving the energy-saving effect of the chassis and cabinet is to improve the overall sealing performance of the cabinet, and improving the sealing performance of the chassis and cabinet requires the sealing strip and the door sealing strip to be pressed tightly.

對機箱機柜密封性能產生影響的鎖類五金件大體可以分為兩類：多鎖點五金件和單鎖點五金件。

The locking hardware that affects the sealing performance of the chassis and cabinet can be generally divided into two categories: multi locking point hardware and single locking point hardware.

多鎖點五金件的鎖點和鎖座分布在機柜的四周，當機柜鎖閉后，鎖點鎖座牢牢地扣在一起，與鉸鏈或者滑撐配合共同產生密封壓緊力使扇、框之間形成足夠的密封。因此，使用多鎖點五金件可以提高機柜的密封與耐撬防盜性能（而單鎖點五金件所帶來的密封性和防盜性會相對差一些）。

The locking points and seats of multi locking hardware are distributed around the cabinet. When the cabinet is locked, the locking points and seats are firmly fastened together, and together with hinges or sliding braces, they generate sealing and compression force to form sufficient sealing between the fan and frame. Therefore, using multiple locking point hardware can improve the sealing and anti theft performance of the cabinet (while the sealing and anti theft performance brought by single locking point hardware will be relatively poor).
