The TANDEMBOX antaro is Blum's steel drawer system built for medium-height storage in your kitchen. At 84mm high with grey powder-coated steel sides, it creates clean, geometric storage that sits inside your cabinet boxes rather than replacing them entirely.

Where It Fits

This system works in cabinets at least 453mm deep, making it suitable for most base units in contemporary kitchens. The variable external cabinet width means it adapts to different unit sizes, though you'll need cabinets with an installation height of 98.5mm to accommodate the mechanism.

How It Works

The drawer runs on Blum's BLUMOTION system, which provides controlled soft-close action. You pull the drawer out smoothly, and when you push it back, it decelerates gently into position without slamming. The steel construction keeps the sides rigid even when loaded.

Why It Matters

The 69mm internal height gives you practical storage for plates, smaller pans, or organised drawer inserts without the bulk of deeper systems. The soft-close prevents the jarring sound of metal hitting metal, and the controlled action means delicate items stay in place as the drawer closes.

Design Consideration

This height works well when you want organised storage without losing too much cabinet space to the drawer mechanism itself. However, the 30kg weight capacity means it's better suited to everyday items rather than heavy cookware. The grey steel sides will be visible inside your drawer, which suits modern kitchens but may not align with more traditional styles.

Build Quality

Blum backs this system with a lifetime guarantee. The steel construction resists wear better than alternatives, and the BLUMOTION runners are engineered to maintain their smooth action over thousands of opening cycles.

Installation Notes

The system requires screw fixing, though fixings aren't included. Your kitchen installer will need to ensure the cabinet depth and installation height are correct, as there's little adjustment once fitted.
