A sensitive touch for the kitchen with electro-mechanical drawer opening.
May 1st, 2010
Hafele’s Grass Sensomatic Opening System provides electro-mechanical drawer opening which effortlessly strikes a balance between design and functionality.
Drawers open electronically in a smooth, precise and elegant fashion by simply touching the drawer front and can be closed gently and silently with an Airmatic soft-close feature.
The Sensomatic Opening System can be used for a variety of applications including double-walled steel or timber drawers, wire baskets, waste bin systems and pantry units.
All Grass Nova Pro Drawers up to 1200mm wide and with a weight of 70 kilograms can also be combined in conjunction with Sensomatic without the need for drawer modification.
Furniture designers will find it an ideal storage solution with its handle-free surfaces, clean lines and simplistic form.
Sensomatic is also frugal when it comes to power consumption and space with its small environmental footprint and minimal room needed for a drive unit behind the drawer.
Hafele’s Grass Sensomatic Opening System provides functional precision and ease of use to blend with any lifestyle.
