Systems of vertical openings for wall units

Comfort of kitchen furniture

The kitchen furniture are at the same time a mixed blessing, because they are useful and necessary for many functions that are called to perform, and at the same time they must be chosen favoring personal taste, considering the budget and carefully studying the size of the premises in which they are allocated, because not all models are adaptable to any space.

What should never be lacking in certain furniture is the absolute functionality, or the ability to undertake the tasks of storage of food and utensils in common use, making you able to access them in a practical, quick, easy way and without effort and with the greatest possible safety, considering how much the household accidents, even the minor ones, are disseminated and linked to behavioral errors as to the characteristics of the furniture.

In the choice of the functionality of kitchen furniture, determinants are the opening systems, ie hinges and the like, because they depend on the ease of opening, understood as physical effort applied and simplicity of operation, as much as the safety of users linked, precisely and the characteristics of these devices, their handling and how to make life easier for those who use them.

Opening mechanisms for vertical hanging

The wall units are the kitchen furniture in many ways more comfortable when well positioned in height because, compared with low furniture, do not force anyone to bend the legs, or even worse, back, movement, the latter known to be risky in general and, even more, for elderly people or people with physical problem or who, however, must then lift dishes or heavy objects from the bottom upwards.

The wall units allow movements less risky, in terms of moving the dishes more or less large and/ or heavy, and that's why, even more so, are the favorite to host food and utensils you use most frequently, compared to less used ones which are, consequently, relegated to low furniture.

The opening systems for wall units, then, must be chosen in relation to the space available in the kitchen, because the classic horizontal opening hinges are good when the spaces allow easy opening without having to do exaggerated contortions, for lack of depth in front of the furniture. In certain cases, however, in all those in which the manufacturer of the furniture has modules with vertical opening, that is with flap doors, the opening systems must be particularly functional and well designed.

For decades, one of the largest production companies in the commercial opening systems for the furniture, Samet, recently launched an exciting new line of interlocking elements for drop down door, which combine excellent design and treated with functional features, though: we're talking about Monolift and Duolift designed by the special pencils of Defne Koz and Mark Susani.

The particularity of these technological systems is represented by the special mechanism that allows a gradual opening of the door, which remains in any position be raised, without sudden and abrupt movements and actions but fluidly and not noisy.

Easy to install, both mechanisms can be adjusted with care, after installation, in relation to the measures and the weight of the doors that need to be raised, and thus ensures an absolute functionality. In order to ensure a comfortable use and without risk to the safety of the users, then, Duolift, in particular, is equipped with a special safety mechanism that does not allow the crushing of the fingers, domestic accident among the most widespread.

Just as much high-quality technology, combined with sophisticated design and functional, is found in the systems for vertical openings of another major manufacturer in the industry, the Austrian Blum. In particular, for the wall cabinets with vertical opening is provided a line, called Aventos, composed of various systems, each specific for a different type of opening.

It starts with Aventos HK for flap doors for standard, for those hanging size is not too large, then there is Aventos HL, for doors that open vertically, typical of column like cabinet or wall cabinets with fronts above. There, again, Aventos HF for folding doors, characteristics of higher wall cabinets because they allow reaching the handle in each opening position. Finally we have Aventos HS, for tilting doors, with the front in a single quite big piece, where the tilting movement allows you to always have a small encumbrance, with maximum and easy use of the interior space.

Easy to install, thanks to the technical note clips that allows the almost complete lack of mounting hardware, systems of opening of the Aventos are all equipped with Blumotion dampening system that, regardless of the force applied and the weight and size of the leaves, ensures silent closing and sweet. If necessary, the product range Aventos can be further enhanced with optional servo motor servo-called Drive, which is enabled by applying a light, delicate touch on the front of the doors to open.
