Laptop Hinge

Hinge, the most important part of a laptop is what makes the lid open or close to making the laptop feel like a book. Breaking or damaging it is rather easy since it can easily undergo any accidents. Without further ado, follow these recommendations mentioned below.

  1. Close the lid properly: Close the lid gently and hold from the middle of the screen. Closing the lid using only one edge causes extra pressure on the hinges which over time will crack and break them.
  2. Prevent damage to the monitor: Make sure there are no obstructions (paper clips, pens or pencils, etc.) on your keyboard when you are shutting the lid. Items like these can dent, scratch, or even crack the screen.
  3. Hold your laptop by the base: Lifting and holding the laptop by the display creates unneeded pressure on the hinges. This action may direct pressure on the LCD and deform or crack the screen itself.
  4. Be aware of what you put on top of the laptop: Placing heavy items on the laptop (open or close) can cause serious damage to the LCD, hinges, and chassis.
  5. Place laptop on a hard surface: While using a laptop be sure to place it on a hard and stable surface so that there is space between the laptop base and the surface on which it has been placed.
