Our kitchen designs ooze individuality. Here, it is not only about creating visual appeal, like fronts and colours, but also practical aspects like ergonomics, equipment and the demands made on the quality of the kitchen.
Ergonomics & systems
Ergonomics
Working in the kitchen becomes a truly enjoyable experience when the cupboards are the right height, everything is within reach or not too far away, and all important utensils can be accessed quickly and easily. In a word: when the kitchen is planned in such a way that it is pleasant to work in and doesn’t cause you any aches and pains.
Working height – the ideal level depends on how tall you are and is determined by your elbow height. It can be planned to suit any individual thanks to three different carcase heights (Information on our carcase heights >) combined with two worktop thicknesses and seven plinth heights.
THICKNESS OF THE WORKTOP + CARCASE HEIGHT + PLINTH HEIGHT = WORKING HEIGHT
Not only the working height is ergonomically important: raised built-in appliances, removable internal drawers and pull-outs, or wall units with swivel doors that close electrically, make everyday kitchen routine so much easier.
Carcase heights
The carcase height provides the basis for planning individually tailored kitchens. We offer you a choice between three different heights. Combined with different plinth heights and worktop thicknesses, an optimum solution can be found to any issues with structural conditions or room situations. And of course the kitchen can be adapted to the height of the user.
The 71.5 cm carcase height is the classic standard height and moreover has the advantage that it can be installed just about anywhere. This height is perfect for old buildings with a sill height of 86 cm. The ergonomic aspect here is that an optimum working height is achieved for those who are a little shorter.
If exclusivity, innovative solutions and a special homely feel are what you are after, thanks to its cubic appearance, our extra-high 84.5 cm carcase is perfect for open-plan designs and flowing transitions between the kitchen and living area. It can be customised further in combination with low plinth heights. A great bonus: more storage space. What’s more, the higher working height is great for taller people.
Carcase depths
More storage space thanks to different cupboard depths – maximum flexibility for even larger plates or bulky kitchen utensils, enabling them to be easily tidied away.
Wall units
As far as wall units are concerned, the standard depth is 35 cm. In selected wall-unit heights and widths, we optionally offer a depth of 56 cm for additional storage space.
Base units
Three carcase depths between 35 and 56 cm are available. The carcase height of 78 cm also gives you the option of a depth of 66 cm.
SingleX
new carcase system
SingleX combines a grip ledge profile under the worktop with Tip-On in the lower pull-outs. The system is available in carcase heights of 78 and 84.5 cm in a multitude of base unit and tall unit items and ranges. The SingleX kitchen supports the trend for minimalism by reducing things to the essentials and has a subtle, elegant appearance thanks to its accentuated horizontal lines.
