Weatherproof solutions for outdoor kitchens

Manufacturer in hardware solutions goes outdoors!

We like to spend our leisure time outdoors. And that doesn't always have to be in an idyllic location. Even our own garden, with more and more also a real outdoor kitchen, provides us with enjoyable moments. The outdoor kitchen must withstand the most extreme conditions. Each individual component is therefore important. Hettich has weatherproof solutions and bundles them into an outdoor range.

The preeminent interior design trend today? Integrating nature and natural elements. Simply through flowers and plants, but also with accessories and even the materials used in the kitchen and elsewhere in the home. A nod to nature is almost a must. But at the same time, we also feed our desire for nature by really going outside and living outdoors. Our own garden or terrace gets an appropriate decoration, with designer furniture and even a real outdoor kitchen. Outside also means that weather conditions take their course. Cold, heat, fog, rain, snow and salty air have free rein and everything outside has to withstand it. Hettich offers suitable hardware solutions and at the same time provides the design freedom that designers crave. Operating comfort, generous storage space and surprising application possibilities,
also outside.

Outside also the comfort of inside

Veosys plays an important role in Hettich's outdoor range. The Veosys stainless steel quick-mount hinge is so robust and corrosion-resistant that it stands up to all kinds of external influences. "Being resistant to the
weather conditions is of course important, but Veosys also provides unprecedented comfort," said Hettich. "We integrate the Silent System damping system that presents very good damping properties at both low and high outside temperatures. And thanks to the large, automatic self-closing angle of 35°, Veosys takes care of the closing of furniture doors almost entirely on its own. And whoever thinks of drawers naturally thinks of our drawer system InnoTech Atira. With the many attachments and OrgaTray cutlery inserts, you can also arrange the drawers at will in the outdoor kitchen."

Strong drawers

An outdoor drawer system means the drawer slides must also be weather-resistant. Quadro Compact drawer slides are individually refined and offer the desired weather resistance. The aforementioned Silent System features smooth running, excellent stability and controlled and soft closing at a load of up to 40 kilograms. The outdoor utensils thus get a place in the storage compartments in the outdoor kitchen without any worries. Handle-less fronts in the outdoor kitchen? Can be done, thanks to the Push to open system.

Hanging out outside

If you're chilling outside, you don't want to get up every so often to go inside for a snack and a drink. An outdoor refrigerator is an absolute must have, and needs corrosion-resistant hinges that form the connections between refrigerator door and furniture front. Hettich developed the K hinges, namely K99 and K08 which, with a self-closing mechanism for fixed-door technology, ensure that all electrical appliances now also disappear behind a front outside. The wide opening angle accommodates any refrigerator drawer while maintaining easy accessibility.
