Have questions about industrial hardware? The Guden Hardware FAQ library helps customers better understand hinges, gas springs, hydraulic dampers, latches, handles, hasps, catches, and related access hardware used across industrial applications.

These answers are written by Guden’s team, drawing on the industrial hardware questions we help customers with every day. They are designed to help engineers, OEM buyers, purchasing teams, fabricators, maintenance professionals, and other customers find clear information before choosing a part.

Guden hardware is commonly used on industrial metal enclosures, access panels, cabinets, machinery, equipment doors, lids, hatches, and compartments.
