This is Blum's METABOX drawer system in cream, providing the structural foundation for drawers in your kitchen. The system consists of metal drawer sides and runners that create a sturdy box frame, onto which you attach your chosen drawer front.

Where It Fits

At 118mm high, this is Blum's mid-height drawer option, suitable for most standard kitchen drawers. It works well in base units where you need reasonable storage depth without the bulk of their tallest system. The cream finish coordinates with lighter kitchen schemes or provides a neutral backdrop in cabinets where the drawer sides might be visible.

How It Works

The system uses two metal sides connected to create a drawer box, with runners that mount inside your cabinet to allow smooth operation. You add your own base and back panel, then attach whatever drawer front matches your kitchen design. The runners handle the mechanics of opening and closing, while the sides provide the structure.

Build Quality

This carries Blum's characteristic engineering approach. The metal construction handles up to 30kg of weight, which covers most kitchen storage needs from cutlery to heavy pots. The three-dimensional adjustment system means your installer can fine-tune the drawer front positioning after installation, ensuring consistent gaps and alignment across your kitchen.

Design Consideration

This is the basic METABOX without soft-close functionality, so drawers will close with whatever force you apply. For many people, this direct operation feels perfectly natural. However, if you prefer the cushioned closing action of modern kitchen drawers, you would need to specify the soft-close BLUMOTION upgrade when planning your kitchen.

Options

METABOX comes in different heights for various storage needs, and this cream finish is one of several colour options available. The system can accommodate different cabinet widths and depths, and the soft-close mechanism can be added if desired.
