The Ultimate Flush Panel Fixing Solution for Professionals

The Button-fix™ Type 1 Flush Fix connector is a crucial component in the revolutionary Button-fix family, designed to provide a secure, concealed, and completely flush mounting solution for panels and objects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the main difference between the Type 1 Flush Fix and the Type 2 (Zero-gap) Fix?
A: The Type 1 Flush Fix is engineered for an absolute 0 mm gap between the panel and the substrate (a true flush fit).4 The Type 2 Zero-gap creates a very small, almost invisible gap (typically 3-4mm), offering a slightly different installation tolerance. For a completely seamless look, choose the Type 1.

Q: Why does the 'Type 1 Flush Fix' product title state '(no button)'?
A: The Button-fix system consists of two parts: the Button (which goes on the substrate or panel) and the Fix (the connector, which this product is).5 This item is only the Fix connector, designed to be purchased alongside your choice of Button-fix Buttons (e.g., Surface Button, Fix Button) to complete the system.

Q: What is the required screw size for the Type 1 Flush Fix?
A: We recommend using 4mm (No. 8) countersunk screws suitable for your panel material and substrate for optimal holding power.

Q: Can I use this for ceiling panels?
A: Yes, the Button-fix system is suitable for ceiling applications. However, we recommend consulting the official Button-fix loading guidelines to ensure the system and fixings meet the necessary safety requirements for overhead use.
