Title: Alternatives to Swinging Cabinet Doors
Content Description:   Here's a quick guide to help you select the perfect cabinet door lift system Key Questions to Ask: 1. How do you want your door to open? Flip-Up Door (90-Degree Opening): The door flips up and stays flat at 90 degrees. Ideal systems for this style include the SLS-ELAN, Aileron, or Wind. Flip-Up Door with Recess: Opens at 90 degrees and then recesses into the cabinet. The IF-360  system is perfect for this option.  Lateral Lift: The door slides outward and then lifts vertically. For this, check out the SLUN system.  2. What features are important in a lift system? Soft Close: A soft close ensures the door doesn’t slam shut, providing a smooth and quiet experience. Motorized vs. Button Operation: Do you prefer a manual lift system or the convenience of a motorized button-operated lift? Things to Consider Before Choosing a Vertical Lift Cabinet Door System: Door Size and Weight: The dimensions and weight of your cabinet door will determine which lift system is compatible. Face Frame vs. Frameless Cabinets: Many face-frame cabinets require brackets or other modifications for lift systems to work effectively. Weight and Size Compatibility: Each lift system is designed to handle specific weight and size limits. Choosing the wrong system may cause the door to either fling up too quickly or not lift at all. Safety Considerations: Always handle lift hardware carefully before attaching the cabinet door. A heavy-duty system without a door attached can open abruptly, potentially causing injury. Additional Options for Cabinet Doors: Vertical Lift Cabinet Door: Great for saving space, vertical lift doors provide a sleek, modern touch while offering easy access to overhead cabinets. Cabinet Door Lift-Up Hinges: For those looking to enhance functionality, lift-up hinges allow for smoother, more controlled motion when opening and closing cabinet doors. Fall Flap Doors: A fall flap door opens downwards, making it ideal for lower storage areas or creating a temporary work surface. When selecting the right system, always prioritize function and safety. Whether you're upgrading a kitchen or planning a hidden pantry, choosing the right door lift system can make all the difference!
