Maximise Minimal Space with a Cavity Slider

CS FOR DOORS recently worked with a client who liked the idea of a cavity slider into their butler’s pantry, but was concerned that the location near to the cooker and a set of display shelving meant they would need to make compromises in their design to make it happen.

CS recommended a SofStop cavity slider for a smooth, soft closing action, in line with the rest of the drawers and cupboards in the kitchen. The nogs on the side of the pocket adjacent to the cooker were replaced with a sheet of ply to provide fixing for the display shelving.

A CS NewYorker door was specified with 6.38mm opal laminate glass. The natural anodised aluminium frame toned in well with the appliances and ensured the door wouldn’t bow under temperature differentials.
