Head-level storage is a must in modern kitchen design – and increasingly in other areas of the home. Many homeowners find large wall cabinets ideal for storing everything from appliances and crockery to paperwork and musical instruments.
Unfortunately, traditional side-hinged cabinet doors can lead to frequent, painful encounters with users’ heads. Cue Band-aids and muttered regrets!
The issue can be avoided by opting for open shelves – but then the contents will be on permanent display, even if they’re not visually appealing. Houseproud owners will also have to deal with the grease and dust that accumulates in open shelving.
That’s why Blum has developed a range of cabinet door lift systems that fold up, swing up and over, lift up, or pivot up.
Open up new possibilities with AVENTOS.
AVENTOS comprises a wide range of lift system types that make it simple to integrate storage within the kitchen, living room, bathroom, hallway and home office areas.
For example, using AVENTOS HK top, the cabinet front simply glides up and out of the way – pausing before it hits the ceiling, thanks to an infinitely adjustable hinge that’s customised to the required dimensions.
Different mechanical and electrical motion technologies ensure opening and closing ease. Compatible with soft-close BLUMOTION and the powered SERVO-DRIVE closing mechanisms, AVENTOS can be configured to provide ergonomic opening and closing in a huge range of settings.
Small and large cabinets measuring from 205 to 1040 mm in height are easy to specify with AVENTOS. At the other end of the scale, you can even lift an 1800-mm-wide cabinet front with ease.
This opens up a huge range of storage possibilities. Bulky files can be tucked out of sight in a home office, shoe collections can be stowed elegantly in a hallway, a bookcase can be built over a bed, and appliances can be neatly parked in their own ‘garage’, close to the kitchen work area.
With its broad performance spectrum and different fixing options, AVENTOS enables a wide range of design possibilities. Wood, aluminium, glass and composite cabinet fronts are all on the design menu. You can even specify fronts as thin as 8 mm, for the ultimate in a sleek and lightweight design with AVENTOS HK top. Or choose the beauty of natural wood for a warmer look in bedrooms or living areas.
It’s an open-and-shut case for ergonomic design – and no more painful encounters with swinging cabinet doors at head height.
