AvanTech YOU Features

Design Features

The AvanTech YOU drawer system scores with design diversity and creative flexibility, concealed working parts and perfect performance. AvanTech YOU puts the homeowner and the designer in focus and matches your specific needs.

Design Profiles

AvanTech YOU drawers come with anthracite or white design profiles. Also available in a range of colours and a custom option as well. Design profiles are not required if specifying DesignCapes.

DesignCapes

DesignCapes are unique to AvanTech YOU. These are simply attached and change the colour, finish and impact of your external drawer side. Five stock colours are available, plus the option to customise with whatever branding you want (as seen above).

Inlay Drawers

Inlay drawers accommodate a material of your choice set in the drawer side. Commonly seen with glass, this could be marble, wood or whichever material best complements the rest of the space.

Internal Drawers

Internal drawers are a great way to utilise space, whilst keeping a sleek look. The beauty of AvanTech YOU internal drawers is all the customisable options are available as well.

Drawer Runners

Actro YOU

This is our premium runner and the preferred specification for AvanTech YOU drawers. The Actro has exceptionally high lateral stability and synchronous control for optimum load distribution. This means it has the luxurious, substantial opening and closing feel associated with Hettich’s Actro runner.

Actro also has a higher load bearing capacity, available in 10kg, 40kg and 70kg. So it is the only specification option for extra heavy or wide drawers



Quadro YOU

Quadro YOU is a mid-range runner that makes thin-walled drawers accessible for a huge range of homeowners or renovators. It is an adaptation on Hettich’s classic Qaudro runner which has been continuously optimised over 30 years. It has a smooth running action and an extremely long service life.

The Quadro YOU has a load bearing capacity of 10kg or 30kg. It is the perfect choice if you don’t want to sacrifice the design elements AvanTech YOU offers.
