Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What are the main applications for the Button-fix Type 2?
The Type 2 is specifically designed for applications where panels need to be easily and repeatedly removed without any clearance above or at the side. It's the best choice for plumbing and electrical service access panels, removable bath panels, radiator covers, demountable furniture, and boxing-in pipework.

Q2: Does the Type 2 require a drop-down movement for engagement?
No, the Type 2 is unique for its straight push-on engagement. This makes it perfect for fittings where there is absolutely no space for lifting or sliding the panel into place. Simply push the panel straight onto the frame until you hear the satisfying 'click'.

Q3: How does Button-fix Type 2 compare to Keku Clips?
While both offer concealed panel fixing, users often find the Button-fix Type 2 easier to align and install, especially when using the optional Fix Marker tool (sold separately), which eliminates the need for measuring. Button-fix is also moulded from extremely durable nylon (Zytel®), which many users find more robust and less prone to snapping than certain competing plastic clip systems. Furthermore, the straight push-on action of the Type 2 is often simpler for access panels than the slide-down engagement required by many Keku-style fittings.

Q: Can I use the Button-fix Type 2 on ceiling panels?
No. The Button-fix Type 2 is designed for vertical or furniture applications where the panel is pushed onto a 90° frame. For horizontal, downward-facing applications like ceiling panels, we strongly recommend using the Button-fix Type 1 which features a secure drop-down engagement.

Installation & User Confidence

The Button-fix system simplifies complex joinery. The blue Button is designed with a tapered flange to provide a generous lead-in, making alignment simple and fast. When coupled with the optional Fix Marker accessory (not included), installation can be achieved with unprecedented speed and accuracy, significantly reducing fitting time on site. Achieve a secure, professional, and easily maintainable finish every time.
