These are Blum's concealed side-mount drawer runners, designed specifically for wooden drawer boxes. The MOVENTO system sits inside your cabinet, completely hidden from view when the drawer is closed, giving your kitchen a clean, uninterrupted look.

Where It Fits

MOVENTO runners work with wooden drawer boxes up to 16mm thick, fitting inside standard kitchen cabinets. They're particularly suited to kitchens where you want the hardware to disappear, letting the wood grain and cabinet design speak for themselves.

How It Works

Each drawer pulls out to its full extension, giving you complete access to everything stored at the back. The synchronized carriage system means both sides of the drawer move together smoothly, while the integrated BLUMOTION dampening brings each drawer to a gentle, silent close. The BLUMATIC feature means drawers will self-close from about 50mm out.

Why It Matters

Full extension matters because you can reach everything in your drawers without having to slide items forward first. The silent closing prevents the daily soundtrack of banging drawers, particularly valuable in open-plan homes or early morning routines. Self-closing means drawers stay properly shut even when you're rushing.

Build Quality

Made in Austria with steel construction and zinc plating for corrosion resistance. The cylindrical nylon rollers reduce friction and wear over time. Blum backs these with a lifetime guarantee, reflecting the engineering standard you'd expect from a mechanism that might cycle thousands of times each year.

Installation Considerations

These runners require precise installation but offer four-dimensional adjustment once fitted, meaning your installer can fine-tune the drawer position without removing anything. The system can handle loads up to 40kg or 70kg depending on the version you choose. Available in lengths from 250mm to 750mm to match your drawer depth.

Design Consideration

MOVENTO works best when you want hardware to be invisible and prioritize smooth, quiet operation. If you prefer the look of traditional visible hardware or need drawers that stay open at any position rather than self-closing, other systems might suit your kitchen better.
