Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

I would like to install a new kitchen, what should I buy?

We’ve prepared a kitchen remodeling checklist that you may find useful.

Can I get more space for storage?

This is an area that we specialise in. Our team can assess your kitchen and recommend smart storage solutions that make better use of existing space to create more storage which is also, at the same time, easier to access. Come to our showroom or contact us and let’s talk.

How much weight should I put in my pull-out systems?

We design our pull-outs with heavy loads in mind. Depending on model, our products can take up to 80kg for a full extension runner.

Are there any important ergonomic considerations?

When designing a modern kitchen, your own (or the Chef’s) height is an important consideration. The rule of thumb is to allow 15cm between the elbow (with folded arms) and your work top. However, this does not mean that everything should be installed at the same height. Some appliances, like ovens, should be placed lower. You will thus not only maintain proper posture while cooking, but also exercise your back for good health.

Won't installing a modern kitchen be too costly?

Although upfront costs may be quite different, most people actually save money in the long term when building a modern kitchen. Quality materials and fittings contribute to a longer lifespan and reliability. A modern design also includes smart storage solutions and ergonomics to minimise the need to change the layout later on. In any case, having to remodel your kitchen later on due to wear and tear or a bad layout is both costly and inconvenient.
