Types of Handleless Kitchens - Kitchen Cabinets

Leicht Avance Handle-less Kitchen Cabinets Chicago IL

For 2018, HGTV conjured up the top trending kitchen ideas and handle-less kitchens with easy close doors made the list. The sleek, modern design will keep your kitchen fresh and inviting for years to come. When designing a modern European kitchen you will have the option to decide if you would like the cabinets to be with or without handles. European terminology only considers true handle less kitchens as cabinets which accept a continuous aluminum grip rail inserted throughout an entire row of cabinetry. This can help reduce finger prints since you are grabbing behind the door instead of grabbing a handle attached to the front. Such systems can only be made in advanced factories like those of top European kitchen manufacturers like Leicht and Nobilia.

Handle-less kitchen cabinets add a minimalist look to your home that also maximizes space. Not only are they timeless, there are an array of options available. One of the most innovative and impressive handle-less kitchens is the Leicht Avance style which uses a unique “C” channel technology.

A more typical handle less option uses a “J” channel technology such as the Nobilia line N.

There are other handle less looks which do not use a continuous grip rail system so they are not true handle less kitchens by European standards, but still  sport a handle less look: One option is a handle that is formed into the door like the Leicht Pura handle. Or a handle which is integrated into the door, but, since the cabinets are not connected by a continuous grip rail, the cabinets may not line up perfectly.

Finally, it’s possible to use electrical or mechanical touch latches for a completely seamless look. Handle less kitchens create a clean modern look which is symmetrical, but, as you can see, there are several options so you will be able to make a choice that fits the unique needs of your ideal kitchen.
