Most kitchen buyers probably already have a good idea of the look they want their kitchen to have before they walk into the showroom. What they haven't been able to visualise is how it will work and perform for them after being installed.
Kitchens have become highly sophisticated when it comes to interior cabinet planning, access and motion. Storage has become a major consumer priority and selling point so the better fitted the kitchen the better it will perform. These are few of the "musts" of today's modern kitchen: All drawers and pull-outs must move on effortless runners that offer full extension to the user for total access to the back of the cabinet. More and more customers are insisting on soft close and this should be integrated into the runner. As people appreciate the benefits of storage, so deeper and wider drawers are called for. Therefore runners need lateral stability and load bearing capacities of 50kg plus. Internally, drawers need to be organised with flexible dividers and gallery systems. Special units require special applications like larders and corner units.
On the walls, cabinets with doors must have hinges with the correct opening angles and these too should be fitted with integral soft close mechanisms. There is a growing demand for lift up doors in various configurations. The fittings for these units need to be specially engineered so that the weight of the door panel (or door panels if bi-fold) do not pose any effort for the user. Soft close on these systems is, once again, essential.
