Slim Style: Vectis® SI Series Hinges for High-End Kitchen Appliances
When it comes to designing high-end kitchens, every detail counts – and that includes the hinges. Everything from the materials used to the features offered focuses on quality and luxury.
Slim hinges have become increasingly popular in these kinds of kitchens, and it’s not hard to see why. These hinges are designed to be hidden from view, which creates a clean and sleek look. This is especially important in modern kitchens, where minimalist design is often a top priority.
With their combination of style and functionality, it’s easy to understand why slim hinges are an essential element in high-end kitchen design. The door-hinging system is one of the most important aspects to consider when designing a built-in, panel-ready, or integrated appliance.
Keeping that in mind, Weber Knapp’s team of expert engineers created the SI Series Hinge integrating Vectis® motion control technology into a quality, feature-packed solution.
