Wall units and cupboards with retractable doors allow easy and immediate access to the contents of the cabinet without having an open door invading the kitchen space.
A modern and effective solution for furnishing with elegance. And above all, to enjoy the kitchen in total practicality, both when cooking and during a simple break.
Concealed sliding doors. The perfect solution for the modern kitchen
Gieffe proposes the concealed door solution in the kitchen as the best choice you can make. A solution in which the open doors do not invade the kitchen but discreetly disappear behind the cabinet, creating a free and open space. The inside of the cupboard becomes accessible and communicates with the outside space, guaranteeing immediate access to all its contents. An optimal solution for those who intensively live the kitchen. Moving from the hob to the cabinet in one fluid movement with opened and not imposing doors is a perfect solution for kitchen lovers.
Concealed doors in the kitchen differ from sliding doors in one key factor. Sliding doors slide on their rails but always leave part of the interior cabinet inaccessible. Add to that the annoyance of having to find dust in the runners and at the sides. Concealed doors, on the other hand, move on their side rails and slide to the side of the cabinet. In this way they can leave the interior space completely visible without any frontal clutter.
The choice of furniture with concealed doors in the kitchen means furniture that combines functionality and design.
Automated opening and soft-closing. Technology in the service of design
But furnishing is made up of details, of many things that add up to make an environment suitable both functionally and aesthetically. So far we have seen how concealed kitchen doors are practical, functional and aesthetically pleasing. Now let's talk about some details that can really make the difference:
- automated door openings
- soft-close doors
These are details that are all too often under-valued but which, for an often minor additional cost, can make life much easier.
Electric door opening is an example of an element that is often considered superfluous but which, if put into practice, can be very useful. Especially if applied to the top doors. It consists of switches connected to the various doors, which you can then manage without effort (and without any additional ladder to help you to close them). Very useful for opening wall units at the top, this system clearly has a more expensive price than traditional openings. however, it should be noted that the higher cost is certainly justified for the practicality it provides.
As far as hinges are concerned, on the other hand, it must be said that soft-closing systems are now an essential element in a quality kitchen. Having a system that regulates the speed at which doors close guarantees that they are more secure. No more hard closing or banging doors!
Soft-closing is perfect for preserving the integrity of the kitchen for a long time, but also for keeping the doors closed perfectly.
