Extendable systems for the kitchen: the most modern mechanisms

Kitchen arrangement is not an easy task. In this room it is very important to observe not only the design unity, convenience and beauty, but also the ergonomics of space. Particularly acute issue of rational use of space is felt in small areas, in which simply can not fit all the necessary furniture for kitchen furniture and accessories.

Given that a large number of utensils, utensils and technical aids are necessary for working in the kitchen, kitchens in small apartments often look littered. Until recently, the problem of lack of useful space in the kitchen area was solved with the help of suspended shelves and compact furniture. However, today, the hostesses have a great opportunity to make even the smallest room in the area comfortable and convenient, by selecting retractable systems for the kitchen. Boxes, baskets and other pull-out mechanisms will help to equip the kitchen in the most ergonomic way, providing pleasant work for cooking and no less pleasant meals. About such modern systems today and will tell the "House of Dreams" in this publication.

How to equip the kitchen with sliding systems

Modern sliding systems for the kitchen allow maximum use of every centimeter of the room without cluttering the space. The systems are built into the furniture in such a way that outwardly their area does not increase, allowing to embody the most intricate design solutions.

Drawer systems for kitchens are the most common way of saving space. As a rule, they are mounted inside the suspended or floor cabinets. When you open the cabinet door from its bowels appears one or several different-level boxes designed to store a variety of kitchen appliances. The advantage of drawers is that when opened they completely roll out, which allows maximum filling of its rear area. At the same time, the built-in fixing elements hold the open box in the desired position, preventing it from falling out.

Drawers for kitchen drawers can be of different sizes and different internal sections in which it is convenient to store this or that utensils. Sometimes when you open one door all the drawers are pulled out, so that the mistresses can immediately see and take the thing they need.

Arrange cabinets with drawers so that near the work surface there are all the necessary devices. For example, under the countertop, there may be drawers for the kitchen, which will contain cutlery, dishes, cutting boards, etc. Near the plate should be equipped with more voluminous sections, in which it will be convenient to store pans, pots, pans, etc.

An interesting analogue of drawers are drawers for the kitchen. Their difference from previous systems is only in size. As a rule, the width of the bottle construction does not exceed 15-20 cm, which allows you to mount it in narrow places, where a normal cabinet simply can not fit. Inside the bottles there are several sections intended for storing narrow and tall things.

Good drawers in the design of a small kitchen area are pull-out baskets for the kitchen. Most often, wicker baskets that complement the kitchen with interesting design accents are installed in retractable shelves that roll outward, sliding on the guides. Depending on the functional purpose, the retractable baskets can be installed in both the upper and lower drawers. This element is indispensable for storing products that need airing, for example, vegetables or bakery products.

Additional draw-out kitchen systems

In addition to crates and baskets for storage, many appliances are very necessary in the kitchen to facilitate cooking, cleaning and eating. Let's look at several such systems that can be safely called the ideas of ergonomic design of the kitchen.

1. Extendable cutting boards

The extendable cutting board is mounted inside the worktop and, if necessary, it expands it. This familiar kitchen accessory in an unusual interpretation is often equipped with an additional container, in which it is convenient to collect bread crumbs or cut vegetables for salad. If the dimensions of the tabletop allow, several boards of different materials, for example, plastic and wood, are mounted in it.

2. Retractable table

This is an indispensable addition for a very small kitchen in which it is impossible to equip the dining area. The retractable table can be mounted in the countertop or in the drawers under it, or it can be lifted up and installed on the foot.

3. System "carousel"

Most often, the kitchen furniture has the shape of the Latin letter L. Accordingly, it has roomy but not very comfortable corner lockers. The inconvenience of these lockers lies in the inaccessibility and inability to fill all of its surface, if the cabinet is at the top. The system "carousel" allows you to easily solve this problem. The system design is mounted either to the door or to the sidewall of the cabinet, and when opened completely extends outwards. Universal sections allow you to store in such a system a variety of dishes and utensils - from plates, glasses and cutlery to pots and pans.

4. Retractable garbage bins for kitchen

Traditionally, trash cans are installed under the sink. Pull-out kitchen trash cans, as well as drawers, can be attached to the back of the door or installed on a shelf that runs along the rails. At some models of garbage containers at a door opening the cover automatically is raised.

5. Narrow vertical storage boxes for

devices A narrow vertical box is usually installed near the sink or stove. In such boxes there are no shelves and nets, but they are great for storing all kitchen appliances. The retractable mechanism of these boxes is similar to the bottle-bottles we examined above.

Other pull-out mechanisms, systems and sections for the kitchen

Depending on the layout of the kitchen, almost all of its sliding elements can be opened either directly or at an angle. Also, to save a small room, a pull-out hood for the kitchen, a pull-out ironing board or even a drawer can be used. All the guiding elements of such systems are manufactured in such a way that the doors and shelves open smoothly without producing a single sound.

Using the new-fashioned sliding systems for the kitchen, you can equip this room with maximum comfort and convenience, regardless of the number of free meters. In addition, all these details fill the kitchen with modernity and minimalism, allowing you to realize any design ideas.
