Creating sufficient storage space. It is one of the many challenges when drawing a new kitchen. Especially when the surface area of this kitchen becomes smaller and smaller, such as in a studio or a smaller home. Van Hoecke knows that wall units play an important role in this story and that choosing the right type of door can also make a big difference.
We are all familiar with the traditional revolving doors. However, these can be somewhat impractical in a busier or smaller kitchen. If they are open, it is easier to bump into them. Annoying or even dangerous when cooking or moving around in a smaller kitchen. Van Hoecke: "Folding doors open up and stay out of sight and out of the way. Blum's AVENTOS top folding doors also stay in any position. They are out of the way but still within reach. It results in more freedom of movement and, above all, a safer work space. The opening angle limiter prevents the front from colliding with the ceiling."
Blum offers as many as four versatile movement options with its AVENTOS folding doors. Different needs and styles are thus answered. Van Hoecke: "You have folding with AVENTOS HK top, swinging with AVENTOS HS top, lifting with AVENTOS HL top and folding with AVENTOS HF top. Folding doors open upward for a sleek and minimalist look, swivels smoothly free up space. Those with really tall cabinets benefit most from lifting doors because they disappear completely from the work area. Folding doors are perfect for wider fronts where the door then folds compactly. AVENTOS top folding doors fit effortlessly into any kitchen layout due to these four options. And the various versions, such as with a push-to-open and soft-close mechanism TIP-ON BLUMOTION or electrically operable thanks to SERVO-DRIVE, offer additional possibilities."
The presence of a pack of different kitchen styles means you have to come up with an appropriate solution for each one. So did Blum in the AVENTOS story. "Lift-up doors are ideal for lovers of a minimalist look," Van Hoecke also knows. "The maximum front width of up to 1800 mm wide makes it possible to create a clean and uniform joint pattern, where the doors fit seamlessly and therefore do not cause any unnecessary visual distractions. Is the new kitchen really high-end and crying out for an eye-catcher? Then choose AVENTOS HKi from Blum. Technology and design go perfectly hand in hand here. The perfect movement of the hinged door system is so compact that it fits seamlessly into the side wall of the cabinet. Completely hidden from view, in other words!"
