AvanTech YOU 650mm Double Walled Pot/Pan Drawer System 251mm High Anthracite Hettich 9 305 875

A Deep Pot Drawer System Built for Dark, Modern Kitchens

The AvanTech YOU double-walled drawer system in Anthracite is a complete pot and pan drawer set engineered for the tall, deep storage demands of a kitchen's base cabinet. At 251mm side height and 650mm nominal length, it handles the heaviest cookware drawer in the run while keeping its finish consistent with dark, handleless kitchen designs.

Key Features

• Double-walled steel sides deliver a clean, hollow-core profile that conceals every fastener on the interior face.
• 251mm side height provides the deep clearance needed for tall stock pots, Dutch ovens, and large skillets stored on their sides.
• 650mm nominal length suits standard kitchen base cabinet depths and carries the runner, sides, and back as one engineered set.
• Anthracite finish coordinates with dark cabinet interiors, matte black hardware, and handleless front programs.
• Hettich AvanTech YOU platform means front fixings, locking devices, and accessories are system-matched and engineered to work together.
• Steel construction throughout supports the load of a fully stocked cookware drawer without flex or rattle.

Where This Drawer System Earns Its Place

The 251mm side height is the key dimension here. Most drawer systems top out at a lower profile suited for cutlery or utensils; this height was selected for the cookware drawer, the one slot in a kitchen run that needs to hold a stack of pans, a cast-iron skillet, or an oversized pot without the side wall cutting into headroom. At 650mm nominal length, the drawer reaches deep into a standard base cabinet, making full use of the available depth rather than leaving dead space at the back.

The Anthracite finish makes this system particularly well-suited to contemporary handleless kitchens where dark interiors are part of the design intent — the inside of the drawer box reads as a deliberate material choice, not an afterthought. When the door swings open on a pot drawer and the interior color matches the hardware program, the result looks specified rather than assembled from mismatched parts.

Steel Construction and Finish Details

The AvanTech YOU sides are double-walled steel — two formed walls with a hollow core — which hides fasteners, keeps the inner face smooth, and gives the profile a slim visual edge for its structural weight. The Anthracite finish runs consistently across the side profiles, so the drawer reads cleanly when open. Front fixings, back panels, and accessories for the AvanTech YOU system are platform-specific; parts from other Hettich lines or other brands are not interchangeable with this system.

Who Specifies This System

Cabinet shops building handleless or push-to-open kitchen programs with dark interior palettes will find the Anthracite finish straightforward to specify across a full run. Designers sourcing for a contemporary kitchen renovation can use this system for the base cabinet's cookware position without painting or lining the box interior to match. The 650mm length fits the depth range common in production residential cabinetry, so no custom depth work is needed for a standard install.

Installers should note that the AvanTech YOU system requires front fixing brackets, locking devices, and any motion components (such as soft-close or push-to-open units) specific to the AvanTech YOU platform — these are sold separately and must come from the same system to fit correctly.

The Right Foundation for a Cookware Drawer Done Right

A pot and pan drawer gets opened, loaded, and closed more than almost any other drawer in the kitchen. The AvanTech YOU system in Anthracite is built to take that use seriously — with double-walled steel sides at 251mm tall, a 650mm reach into the cabinet, and a finish that holds its own in a dark, design-forward kitchen.
