Types of opening kitchen facades. TIP-ON - incredible opening comfort

Not only in Europe, but also in Russia, furniture with doors wide open from touch and massive drawers that come out from easy pressing becomes becoming familiar.

From year to year, furniture fitters offer ever new alternatives to conventional opening methods. Many systems - from technically simple to super-sophisticated - give furniture makers the opportunity to develop trend collections of literally all price categories.

There are two ways to open doors or drawers without handles. The first is a specially designed facade design. The second involves the use of various mechanisms that are triggered by lightly pressing the facade surface.

Construction solutions

Beveled hem

Of the structural solutions, the simplest and most common are the facades of cabinets or drawers with a beveled end. Such components are now widely used by Western manufacturers of bulk furniture.

However, a simple design is not at all simple to perform.

For facing the beveled end, edge banding machines with an inclined gluing unit are usually used. Such equipment is produced by few engineering companies and it costs 400-500 thousand euros. Therefore, only large enterprises specializing in the production of facades acquire high-performance lines.



You can use a good machining center, equipping it with a special unit for gluing a beveled edge. Additional costs will be about 30 thousand euros. It is clear that they will pay off only with sufficiently mass production.

Given the growing trend, Russian suppliers of components offer ready-made facades, the design of which allows you to do without handles.

Last year, the company "TD" Eurochem-1 "introduced facades with an integrated handle into the warehouse program. Components of Italian production are made of thermostructural chipboard with a fashionable horizontal wood texture. Material is visually and tactilely perceived as natural wood. The simple form of the facade paintings, the clear geometry of the lines perfectly match the laconic style in the interior. The handle is part of the facade and is in the same plane with its front surface, without violating the integrity of the ensemble. The color map of Sangallo facades - from gray-beige to dark brown - was created in one color tone. This allows you to make cabinet furniture using facades of the same color or combining them with each other.

The Sangallo line offers facades of various sizes and additional components (sidewalls, lining) made of the same material in similar decors.

Aluminum profile

Even in Soviet times, furniture makers often offered kitchens, where an aluminum profile superimposed on the facade was used as a handle. Today, this option is used by many leading European manufacturers.



The company "Amethyst" offers decorative aluminum profiles for facades without handles produced by the Italian company Scilm. The profile has a L-and U-shape, easy to assemble, can be used with an angled connector (90 °) and end end elements (plugs). The collection, called Gola, includes:

Decorative aluminum end profile for the top modules in aluminum trim (wholesale price - 237 rubles / meter);

Horizontal aluminum profiles for lower modules (wholesale price - 352 and 457 rubles);

Vertical aluminum profiles for the lower modules (555 rubles and 647 rubles / meter).

In the near future, the Gola aluminum profile system, able to satisfy the most demanding customers, will also be included in the MDM-Komplekt warehouse program.

The original replacement for handles in wall cabinets is the recessed fluorescent lamp BOSTON-R from the brand L&S (Italy). The luminaire is built into the hinged module instead of the bottom, illuminating both the internal contents of the cabinet and the working surface. At the same time, it allows you to open the door in the same way as a profile from Scilm.



Externally, BOSTON-R is a structure made of high-strength glass embedded in an aluminum frame. Illumination - 400 lux. In the warehouse program of the Amethyst company, there are two luminaires - 563 x 274 and 863 x 275, with a shelf load of 9 and 14 kg, respectively, but orders for individual sizes are also possible. Permissible load - 0.6 kg / sq. dm. In a set - a wire 2 meters long. Wholesale price of BOSTON-R size 563 x 274 mm - 5 130 rubles., 863 x 275 - 5 808 rubles.

PUSH OPEN mechanisms



Systems with the “pressed / opened” function appeared several years ago and are actively developing. Development, as usual, goes in two directions: up and in breadth. Market leaders, the progenitors of the first mechanisms, offer all new options, bringing their systems to perfection. At the same time, the number of offers from companies that began to manufacture pushers later, but rapidly increasing production volumes, product quality, and assortment, is growing. In short, the choice of mechanisms that allow any drawer or cabinet to do without handles is huge.

Housing Mount Pushers

The most affordable mechanism for opening the facades of cabinets and drawers, - "independent" pushers installed on the body. Today they are produced by many manufacturers of accessories.

For example, the universal PUSH LATCH latch from the TITUS Group, which is used to open both swing doors and drawers, is offered by the Sloros company. The kit consists of a latch and a mounting plate of a straight or cross shape. For the pusher to work perfectly, expensive loops with a “return” spring are not required, and the reciprocal bar is not needed, since there is no magnet in the mechanism.

The mechanism is mounted on the side wall of the cabinet on a standard additive. Latch travel - 40 mm. A wide adjustment range (5.5 mm) will ensure the PUSH LATCH for various facades, even if it is inaccurate. Latch height - 11.2 mm. This size allows it to be used with drawers on conventional roller guides, as well as with drawers with double-walled metal sidewalls.

The TITUS Group company guarantees the performance of the pusher up to 80 thousand cycles of opening / closing. Wholesale price - 72 rubles.

The Amethyst product line features the IMPULSE mechanism from the Spanish company INDAUX. The manufacturer offers invoice and mortise mechanisms, with and without magnet. To install the overhead device, it is necessary to purchase a counterpart, presented in two versions - with and without emphasis. The length of the sliding part of the attachment mechanism is 20 or 40 mm, the mortise is 40 mm. Wholesale price of the laid on mechanism - from 111 rub., Mortise - from 169 rub.



Using the IMPULSE system for opening doors, it is recommended to use hinges with a return spring, which will increase the service life of the device and make its operation more comfortable. The best option is the MESUCO 143 Clip-On loop, which is also represented in the Amethyst assortment. Its wholesale price is 65 rubles.

The widest range of pushers is offered by MDM-Komplekt. Among them are the K-PUSH pushers of Italiana Ferramenta. They can be used both for swing facades, and for drawers on roller or ball guides.

In the MDM-Komplekt warehouse program, overhead and mortise mechanisms with a pusher stroke of 13 mm and 40 mm, with a standard and reinforced spring, with a rubber damper and a magnetic tip are presented. Color - gray or black. Manual adjustment to 3 mm is provided. Pushers K-PUSH are designed for at least 50 thousand cycles of opening / closing, which is confirmed by the CATAS certificate. High consumer qualities, modern design  and a large assortment allowed the K-PUSH system to gain a strong position in the global and Russian markets.



For swing facades without handles MDM-Komplekt offers:

Standard spring hinges (FGV Slide-on hinges or GRASS TIOMOS hinges) - in this case, pushers with a stroke of 40 mm must be used;

Slide-on loops without spring (FGV) - for this solution it is necessary to use pushers with a magnet;



Slide-on loops with a return spring (FGV) when you press the facade open it completely - in this case, it is necessary to use pushers with a magnet to keep the facade closed.

Facades with opening up can also be installed without handles. In this case, MDM-Komplekt recommends using high-quality automatic gas lifts Kraby from Italiana Ferramenta, equipping them with K-PUSH. After the pusher has been activated, the gas elevator automatically opens the facade to its highest position, providing access to the entire contents of the box.



Gas-powered Italiana Ferramenta elevators can also be used to produce hinged facades without handles. For this, secretory loops are most often used, for example, KIMANA loops manufactured by Italiana Ferramenta. In this case, to keep the facade closed, it is necessary to use K-Push pushers with a magnetic tip.

BOYARD's range of products includes two similar mechanisms from the “simple” category: AMF10 and AMF11 with a Push-to-Open function for opening and closing facades without furniture handles with a light touch.

The AMF10 mechanism is designed for cabinets with swinging facades and is compatible with any type of hinge - with and without shock absorption, with various opening and installation angles. To open / close the average facade on two hinges, one AMF10 mechanism is enough. The model is also compatible with drawers, kitchen baskets, lifting mechanisms. AMF10 can be used with facades from various materials  (wood, plastic, glass, with an aluminum profile), regardless of weight and size.



The flush mount mechanism is made of modern, safe ABS plastic in two colors - pure white and elegant gray. It is easy to install and adjust, reliable and durable. Wholesale price - 16.82 rubles.

AMF11 - an emphasis latches of the hidden fastening with an adjustable pusher and a magnet which keeps a facade from excessively sharp full opening. Designed for cabinets with swinging facades and is compatible with all types of hinges, as well as for drawers, kitchen roll-out baskets, lifting mechanisms.



The stroke of the pusher is 43–45 mm, the spring force is 15N. Color - white or gray. Material - ABS plastic.

A series of pushers - long, short, used with STAR TRACK and STAR loops with or without a return spring, used with or without magnet, overhead or flush mounting  - manufactured by the Turkish company Samet. Most of the models were included in the warehouse program of Samet Furniture Technologies LLC, as well as the Russian trading partners of the company.

Blum introduced this year an advanced version of the TIP-ON pusher with integrated adjustment of the gap between the body and the facade.

Unlike its predecessor, the new TIP-ON has a built-in depth adjustment, allowing you to set the optimal clearance between the case and the facade, which ensures maximum comfort for opening the door. The clearance adjustment (+ 4 / –1 mm from the factory setting) is carried out by turning the pusher, on the case of which special risks are applied. One revolution equal to four risks, depending on the direction of rotation, reduces or increases this gap by 1 mm.



The program is presented in three versions.

Short TIP-ON - for overhead doors, up to 1300 mm high. Diameter - 10 mm, length - 50 mm, ejection path - about 17 mm, colors - white silk, platinum gray, terra black.

Long TIP-ON - for overhead doors from 1300 mm and security doors. Diameter - 10 mm, length - 76 mm, ejection path - about 38 mm, the colors are the same.

In both cases, TIP-ON is used with a round magnetic response plate mounted on the back of the facade with glue or with a self-tapping screw.

Both short and long TIP-ON are used not only with hinges without a spring, but also with three types of AVENTOS lifting mechanisms from Blum - NK, NK-S and HK-XS.

Long TIP-ON with plastic tip. A feature of this TIP-ON variant is that it is used with standard hinges (with spring) and without a response magnetic plate. Diameter - 10 mm, length - 76 mm, ejection path - about 38 mm, color - platinum - gray.

All three types of TIP-ON can be installed in a pre-drilled hole in the end of the housing, or using various holders inside the cabinet.

There are also mechanisms for opening swing doors without handles in the Hettich program.

Used with Intermat return spring hinges.

Ball and roller guides with the Push to open option for boxes

Leading hardware manufacturers today offer push to open mechanisms integrated into drawer guides. Such mechanisms cost more than pushers mounted separately, and are designed for more expensive furniture.

The Taiwanese company King Slide has already established itself as a manufacturer of innovative guides that have no analogues in the market. It was she who first proposed ball guides with the Push Open function (3M89). In the assortment of the company are ball guides from 250 to 700 mm long, with a different profile and load capacity - 34, 45, 68 and 90 kg per pair. Accessories comply with international standards and withstand a full rated load of 50 thousand cycles of opening / closing.

Given the growing popularity of minimalist furniture sets with handleless facades, BOYARD has equipped the classic push-to-open push-to-open option full extension  DB4503, thus making the fashion trend accessible to a wider range of furniture manufacturers and consumers. Balls and synthetic grease provide soft and smooth movement of the box.



The mounting length of the guides is from 300 to 550 mm. The guides are made of steel, characterized by wear resistance and reliability in operation. Drawers with DB4503 guides are able to withstand a load of 30 kg, designed for 50 thousand openings / closings of the drawer. Wholesale price - from 177 rubles. up to 325 rub.

Hidden guides with push to open function

While the choice of ball guides with the Push to open function is still very scarce, there are a lot of hidden guides ready to open the box from a light touch. This is understandable: like any fashion trend, furniture with the “pressed / opened” function was intended at first for respectable customers, and therefore the development started with more expensive components. Gradually, the list of manufacturers of advanced fittings was growing, the market was saturated, and today hidden guides with the Push to open function can be found at fairly affordable prices.

So, in the range of BOYARD company there is a whole line of DB guides for flush mounting with the option Push-to-Open. The mechanisms are designed for ready-made drawers made of wood-based panels, glass or plastic. The lineup includes models of mounted and sliding mounting, full and partial extension. The difference in cost between similar BOYARD models with full and incomplete extension is about 40% (in the similar offers of other manufacturers the price range reaches 2.5 times), which makes the concealed systems with the Push-to-Open option available for manufacturers and users of bulk furniture .



Furniture drawers on DB with the Push-to-Open option have the same characteristics as all the sliding systems on DB guides from BOYARD: easy and silent sliding, the possibility of loading up to 25 kg, the stability of the extension of the loaded drawer and the minimum sagging parameters even when fully extended drawer. Size range - from 250 mm to 600 mm. Wholesale price - from 165 rubles. up to 530 rub.

Amethyst for drawers offers the MARC system - IMPULSE flush-mounted guides, specially developed by the Spanish company Indaux for furniture without handles. The device is intended for partial opening of drawers; models are presented for both simple and clip-on-mounting.



Mounted rails are designed for drawers with a depth of 300, 400 and 500 mm, for clip-on mounting - 350, 450 and 500 mm. Wholesale price of MARC for mounted mounting - from 255 rubles, for Clip-On-mounting - from 266 rubles.

The innovative development of King Slide, awarded many international awards, is a fundamentally new hidden guide for drawers 1A88. For several years, this was the only mechanical system in the world where the mechanisms of opening by pressing (Push-Open) and 6 silent soft closing (Silent Soft-Closing) are integrated into a single unit.

A steel roller bearing is used in the inner runner, and nylon in the outer runner, which can significantly improve the performance of the guide. The combined system of rolling elements provides high stability of the guides, while increasing the ease and noiselessness of the extension and closing of the drawer. The hydraulic damper softens the shocks, ensuring a smooth ride.

Guides 1A88 are easily mounted, besides, at installation big tolerances on an error are provided. In order to adjust the position of the front of the drawer in height (tolerance of 3.5 mm) and the drawer in depth after installing the rails, it is enough to turn the special adjusting wheels.

The box opens by clicking on any point of the facade. Since the 1A88 model is mechanical, its cost is much lower than analogues with an electric drive.

Another model of King Slide 1A89 hidden guides with Push-Open provides for adjustment of the ejection force, which is not available for products of other companies.

Hidden guides King Slide - only full extension. All models meet international standards, are guaranteed to withstand at full rated load (34 kg) 100 thousand open / close cycles (with a standard of 50 thousand)

In the Russian market, King Slide products are represented by Inlux (Moscow), Sloros (Moscow) and Monticelli-Sib (Novosibirsk).



Partial and full extension flush-mounted guides Smart Slide Push Open of the Turkish manufacturer Samet are already well known to furniture makers. A wide range of sizes (from 250 to 600 mm in increments of 50 mm), the ability to adjust left / right, up / down, and also with a screw mechanism 3 mm forward and backward, easy and simple installation, good functional characteristics, provided them worthy place in the market. This year, the company introduced an upgraded version of Smart Slide, combining two functions - opening from pressing and a closer when closing. Smart Slide Push Open Soft Close incorporates all the advantages of previous developments: high quality, ease of installation, the ability to adjust the facade in two planes, as well as affordable prices. The cost of the kit is from 790 rubles.

This year, Samet also offers the PUSH OPEN system integrated into SLIDEA rails. Guides are available in two versions: LOCK FIX - with a lock on the facade (sizes from 250 mm to 600 mm) and PIN FIX - the lock is integrated into the guide (sizes - from 260 to 560 mm). Unlike SMART SLIDE, in SLIDEA, only vertical + 2.5mm adjustment is implemented. Prices - from 180 rubles per set.

Blum offers the TIP-ON mechanical drawer opening system, which is integrated into the rails and does not require additional space. Drawers open from a simple touch, slide smoothly, like weightless, and close with a light touch on the facade. One of Blum’s latest and greatest developments is the MOVENTO full extension slide with synchronized profile travel and the integrated TIP-ON mechanism. If you also install a side stabilizer, then even shallow and very wide drawers will open evenly, without distortions.



Guides are designed for loads of 40 and 60 kg. Size range - from 250 to 750 mm.

At the November exhibition Furniture 2014, Blum will demonstrate the novelty that furniture manufacturers are looking forward to. These are the guides with the TIP-ON BLUMOTION mechanical system for opening by pressing and then gently closing the drawers of the latest generation under the name LEGRABOX. Already from the name it follows that this innovation from Blum combines the advantages of two previous systems - TIP-ON and BLUMOTION.

Hettich equips Quadro with Push to open, as well as Quadro V6 + rails that can withstand loads of up to 50 kg. Furniture manufacturers are offered a one-piece design that is easy to install without requiring a change in standard additive. The Hettich RUS warehouse program with the Push to open function offers guides for both partial and full extension. Quadro Push to open guides can be used with InnoTech, as well as wooden drawers.

For wooden drawers with handleless facades, the Austrian company GRASS offers Dynamoov flush-mounted guides equipped with Tipmatic. The synchronization system and wear-resistant nylon rollers provide excellent sliding performance, while the Tipmatic push system integrated in the guide allows the drawer to be opened to its full depth even when fully loaded. In this case, you can adjust the gap between the facade and the duct. The MDM-Komplekt assortment includes guides from 270 to 550 mm long.



AT kitchen furniture  crates with double-walled metal sidewalls are increasingly being used. Given this trend, GRASS offers the NOVA PRO TIPMATIC PLUS system for kitchen furniture, which is characterized by a high base load (40 kg), soft and quiet movement thanks to synchronized guides, convenience and speed of assembly of the drawer, as well as the impeccable appearance of the sidewalls.

The NOVA PRO TIPMATIC PLUS system, presented in the MDM-Komplekt assortment, is equipped with a stabilizing profile that allows you to open a wide drawer by pressing anywhere in the facade, and the pushing force ensures that the drawer is opened to its full length, which gives convenient access to the entire contents of the drawer.

In the autumn, a new product from BOYARD will go on sale - SWIMBOX with the Push-to-Open option, which will complement the range of more advanced extension systems with double metal sidewalls. The model has all the characteristics and advantages of the SWIMBOX line, such as: 100% drawer extension, perfect cushioning, ease and smoothness of drawer movement, soft and silent closing, synchronization when closing, three-dimensional adjustment of the facade in vertical, horizontal and linear planes, durability and wear resistance , impeccable appearance throughout the entire life cycle.



Like all SWIMBOX models, the novelty can be used in boxes of various configurations. Recall that the accessory program offered to SWIMBOX models allows you to create drawers that vary in height (from 96 mm to 224 mm), in shape (straight, angular, under the sink), internal content and decoration.

The SWIMBOX size range with the Push-to-Open option is from 270 to 550 mm. Payload - up to 40 kg. Extension systems are designed for 50 thousand cycles of opening / closing, which corresponds to approximately 10-12 years of active use of furniture.

Wholesale price - from 722,50 rub. up to 1 074,00 rub.

Electric push to open

For high-end furniture, the market leaders in fittings offer ultra-modern push to open systems with electric drive, which are distinguished by convenience and special ease of opening. But most importantly - these models embody prestige and high status.

Hettich introduced the Easys electromechanical system to the market a few years ago. The opening function is activated by lightly pressing the front panel. If you equip the Quadro rail system with a Silent System damper, the drawers will close easily and silently.

Easys can be used with both InnoTech drawer systems and wooden drawers. In addition, there are great opportunities for designing furniture without handles. A special mechanism prevents unintentional opening of the sliding module. The box stops moving when there is the slightest obstacle. Collision protection protects the front panels from damage when the cabinets are angled: if one drawer is open, a special cable that regulates the opening blocks the other drawers to prevent collisions. The lock stops immediately after closing the open drawer. The locking system works even when the adjacent open drawer is not equipped with the Easys electromechanical opening system.

Boxes can be easily opened manually, for example, in the event of a power outage. After turning on the power, the mechanism automatically returns to working condition. The Easys system is completely safe, runs on 24 V and is not connected to drawers and rails. The use of a switch makes Easys easy to turn on and off. This feature is especially convenient when cleaning the cabinet, as well as to ensure the safety of children. It will also save energy.

GRASS SENSOMATIC electromechanical opening systems provide the ability to open by pressing and smoothly closing not only drawers with metal sidewalls, but also drawers on hidden rails and kitchen drawers.

The system is compact, quick and easy to install, has an adjustable pushing force. For the case of any width, one opening element is enough.

Opening the drawer from pressing, in conjunction with the guides of smooth closing, makes using furniture with the installed SENSOMATIC system convenient and comfortable.

The MDM-Komplekt assortment includes both accessories that allow mounting the system in boxes and drawers of various designs and sizes, as well as a kit for one drawer - SENSOMATIC SINGLE SET.

The most complete range of GRASS products is included in the CentroKomplekt warehouse program. The company "Duslar" brings the mechanisms and accessories of its Austrian partner to order.

Blum's SERVO-DRIVE electrical system is designed to open the drawers of various systems and AVENTOS lifting mechanisms from pressing the facade and then gently closing them. The system works flawlessly and is so simple and convenient to install that not only a furniture maker can install it, but also his customer at home.



SERVO-DRIVE is a new level of comfort and functionality from Blum for its customers.

Hardware for kitchen cabinets  It helps to expand the useful area of \u200b\u200bthe room, making the available space more convenient and freeing up space for other attributes of the kitchen. Therefore, the layout of the design of the room should be based not only on its size, but also on the internal organization. With the help of accessories, all kitchen utensils leave the bowels of the cabinet, providing convenient and functional access. Consider the features and tricks of using accessories for cabinets.

Division into species

Interior designers managed to create furniture options that are ergonomic and correct in terms of space saving. They differ among themselves in the way they are opened:

  1. roll-out - structures that when opening the kitchen cabinet leave in the form of a wire container;
  2. retractable - located outside the cabinet door, but not attached to it. They must be obtained personally. Some levels can be fully extended, others only a short distance.

The main objective of such designs is to preserve the useful volume of the kitchen cabinet, as well as providing the hostess with maximum comfort (there is no need to make unnecessary movements and bend over the desired item to the lower drawer).

Functional purpose:

  • specialized - retractable structures can be distinguished by those items that should be stored there. Specialized accessories have a narrow purpose and are able to store certain types of kitchenware: a bottle-holder is represented by a narrow shelf and a high holder, containers for household chemicals are a mesh basket that has many compartments of different widths and heights;
  • economical - designed for narrow kitchen furniture, drawers are fixed on the cabinet wall and are at the disposal of the hostess as soon as she opens it. Such designs are called pharmacy sections;
  • reasonable - designed for cabinets with hinged doors. The set is represented by retractable containers that are "framed" with a thick layer of rubber. This protects the cabinet from unpleasant sounds and prevents odors;
  • rational - designed for corner cabinets, in which, as a rule, the kitchen space "perishes". The fittings are presented in the form of a carousel, which can be advanced 270 degrees;
  • inventive - used in kitchen cabinets and called the “magic corner” or train. The name of the design is justified by rectangular shelves, which are connected to each other thanks to the rotary elements. The structure leaves when the cabinet is opened, when it is closed, the structural elements are retracted in the same sequence.


Drawer Features

If ordinary shelves are hidden behind the kitchen cabinets, this will provide the furniture with a larger capacity, but the convenience of use leaves much to be desired: in order to get an object of interest, the hostess will have to move all the items, with their subsequent placement in places. Drawers are "deprived" of such disadvantages and have additional advantages:

  1. are universal and designed for all household items: small and large dishes, knives, forks, spoons, cans, cereals and more;
  2. they are very practical, as they are made in the form of mesh containers and do not have blind walls. Therefore, the products that can be stored there do not stale or disappear.


The use of accessories for kitchen cabinets can be very diverse. In drawers, you can even store dishes, but for this you should choose models with a plastic or rubber bottom, so that the accumulated moisture does not drain into adjacent compartments of the drawer.

Drawers can be based on the metabox design. They are a roller system and have metal side walls. The downside of such systems is noise during operation. Advantages - practicality and durability.

Tandem boxes are the more expensive version of drawers. Their distinguishing feature is the use of a shelf closing system when opening the cabinet. These types of mechanisms are quieter and softer to use.

How to use lifting gear

This type of hardware is traditionally installed on wall cabinets. Folding mechanisms are great for rooms with low ceilings, which saves space, both in front of the cabinet and after it. The designs are presented in two variations: gas and with a closer system.


The first option is more budget and simple. The lifting mechanism is a thin tube that is located at the edges of the cabinet. Such designs vary in lifting force. The disadvantage of the budget version is a quick failure and a predisposition to breakdowns.

Closer designs are more expensive. However, this is offset by a long service life. The advantage of the model is a smooth opening-closing. Installation of lifting cabinets is recommended for professionals. The complexity of the installation lies in the accuracy of compliance with all measurements of structures.

Lockers with gas lift

By the method of opening, these mechanisms are divided into types:

  • folding;
  • folding;
  • when you click on the facade;
  • with rotary opening;
  • with vertical opening.

By functional purpose, the models practically do not differ. Their features boil down to design and original presentation.

Useful kitchen accessories


The following fittings will help to create coziness in the room, while maintaining a rational space:

  1. roof rails - oblong structures designed to store small kitchen attributes. As a rule, they are located along the wall and are located directly under the cabinets. With their help, you really save space, but flaunt kitchen utensils;
  2. dish driers - usually located in wall cabinets, but can also be used in pull-out structures. Models are made of steel or plastic, often have a removable grill for dishes;
  3. recessed lamps - lighting devices can be used both inside the cabinet and outside. At the same time, they give a design appearance and meet practical parameters, providing better visibility inside the cabinet;
  4. trash bucket - can also be retractable. Many models are fixed to the cabinet wall and have a closer system. Other buckets are made on casters and manually extended;
  5. waste sorter - used in the kitchen if there is a sink above the cabinet. Such models can also be static and retractable.

Subtleties in the choice of accessories

Modern retractable systems do not have to be opened using the cabinet itself. Many of them are equipped with special buttons and pedals, when pressed, roomy drawers open independently. This feature is especially convenient for built-in bins. Thus, the hostess of the kitchen protects herself from the need to “get dirty” her hands.


Another option for automated cabinet opening is a motorized installation. You can open any kitchen cabinet with a light click on it. Retractable structures of such a plan will be appreciated by those households who love agility and mobility in everything. The disadvantage of this type of structure is the advance planning of its installation and the placement of additional electrical circuits on the wall.

Upper cabinets can be inconvenient for people with disabilities. Therefore, the modern development is the EZ-Down system, with which the mechanism opens the cabinet and lowers its contents down. This feature will also be useful for children and people of short stature.

Lifting mechanisms, drawers or doors - any furniture without handles, regardless of its functional purpose, can be equipped with our mechanical opening system. TIP-ON cannot be combined with the BLUMOTION shock absorber. Furniture with TIP-ON closes with a light touch on the facade.

The TIP-ON mechanism is not damaged even if you open the door, lift or drawer manually.

TIP-ON for doors
