Tandem/Movento Pull Out Shelf Lock

Tandem/Movento Pull Out Shelf Lock For Open Use

Tandem/Movento pull out shelf lock provides a functional lock-open stop for pull-out shelves with full extension, so the shelf stays securely in the open position while users operate kitchen gadgets or appliances directly on the extended surface. This Blum, Inc. lock uses a discreet and space-saving mechanism that holds the pull-out shelf in place when open, freeing both hands for working at the shelf without the shelf drifting. Two-sided locking gives a secure hold from both sides of the pull-out, which stabilizes the shelf under load and supports consistent operation across the shelf width. The lock can be released with one hand from either side of the shelf, allowing users to close the shelf quickly from the most convenient side and keep workflows smooth around the cabinet.

Key Pull-Out Shelf Lock Details For Pros

• The lock is designed for pull-out shelves with full extension, so the shelf travels completely out of the cabinet and can be used as a working surface across its full depth.
• The discreet and space-saving mechanism sits within the pull-out hardware area, keeping the look clean while leaving space above the shelf usable for appliances and gadgets.
• Two-sided locking holds the pull-out shelf from both sides when open, which helps keep the shelf steady during use and supports stable appliance operation.
• The lock-open stop securely holds the pull-out shelf in place in the open position, preventing unintentional closing while users work at the shelf or access stored items.
• Release from one hand on either side of the shelf lets users or installers operate the lock from the left or right, which helps in tight kitchen layouts and busy work areas.

Installation-Oriented Design And Runner Fit

This pull out shelf lock is designed for use with TANDEM 563H/569H and all MOVENTO runners, aligning directly with these runner systems so installers can integrate the lock into known slide platforms. The lock is not designed for TANDEM plus BLUMOTION 9 inch runners, which keeps runner selection clear when planning cabinet hardware. Easy installation with self-aligning components supports a straightforward mounting process, helping the locking units and latches position correctly relative to the runners without complex adjustment steps. No change to runner installation means the standard installation method for the specified runners remains the same, so installers can add the lock to their usual workflow without altering existing runner mounting patterns.

How This Pull-Out Shelf Lock Works In Practice

Where This Blum Shelf Lock Is Applied

This Tandem/Movento pull out shelf lock is designed for use in frameless or blocked-out face frame applications, giving cabinetmakers options across common kitchen construction styles while using the same lock hardware. It matches TANDEM 563H/569H and all MOVENTO runners, so it fits projects already based on these runner families and keeps hardware consistent throughout a kitchen run. The functional lock-open stop for pull-out shelves with full extension lets installers create appliance or gadget pull-outs that stay extended during use, turning the pull-out into a stable workstation in front of the cabinet. Users can mobilize kitchen gadgets and appliances, making them easy to use and put away in seconds, which supports designs that keep countertops clearer while still providing quick access to equipment stored on the pull-out shelf.

Details That Support Repeatable Results

The discreet and space-saving mechanism securely holds the pull-out shelf in place when open, which helps prevent shelf movement as users press buttons or operate appliances, reducing the chance of the shelf sliding during normal operation. Two-sided locking for secure hold stabilizes the shelf from both sides, which is especially useful on wider pull-outs where symmetric support improves feel and function. The lock can be released with one hand from either side of the shelf, allowing users to stand where space allows and still close the shelf without shifting position, which supports efficient workflow in tight kitchens. Easy installation with self-aligning components helps the locking units and latches align correctly with the runners, supporting repeatable installations across multiple cabinets on a job. Nylon, Orion Gray material provides a consistent, neutral appearance that blends with typical drawer hardware areas while also offering a smooth contact surface between lock components during engagement and release.
