Left-Hand Drawer Side Profile Built for Dark Interior Schemes

This AvanTech YOU left-hand drawer side profile from Hettich brings the 500mm nominal length and 101mm side height to cabinetry projects where an Anthracite interior finish is the specification. It is a steel side member that forms the structural left wall of one AvanTech YOU drawer, engineered to work within the AvanTech YOU platform alongside its matched runners, front fixings, and accessories.

Key Features

• Left-hand orientation — this is the cabinet-left member; pair it with the right-hand profile to complete one drawer's side set.
• 500mm nominal length — sized for standard base-cabinet depths in the AvanTech YOU system.
• 101mm side height — a mid-range profile height suited to everyday kitchen and bath drawer applications.
• Anthracite finish — a dark, near-matte tone that coordinates with dark interior color palettes and Anthracite front fixings and cover caps.
• Steel construction — the side profile is the load-bearing structure of the drawer box, not a decorative panel.
• AvanTech YOU platform-matched — designed to accept the system's front fixings, cover caps, and runners without modification.

Where This Profile Fits the Job

The 500mm nominal length targets base cabinets in the 550–600mm depth range, which covers the majority of residential kitchen lower-cabinet runs and bathroom vanity drawers. At 101mm, the side height suits cutlery, utensil, and general storage drawers where a slim profile keeps the drawer proportionate to the front panel. Shops building out a run of dark-interior handle-less cabinets will find this profile keeps every visible surface — runner, side, fixing — in the same Anthracite tone rather than mixing finish families mid-install.

Material and Finish Details

The profile is formed steel, giving it the rigidity to carry the drawer load as a structural side rather than relying on a wood box for stiffness. Anthracite on the AvanTech YOU line is a consistent finish across side profiles, front fixings, cover caps, and runners, so a fully coordinated Anthracite interior is achievable by specifying the same finish code across all AvanTech YOU components. Shops should note that finish coordination is specific to the AvanTech YOU line — Anthracite profiles from other Hettich series are not confirmed to be a visual match without a side-by-side comparison.

Who Orders This Profile and Why

Cabinet shops running AvanTech YOU as their production drawer system will order this profile in volume as the left-hand member for every 500mm Anthracite drawer in the run. Kitchen designers specifying dark-interior, handle-less kitchens use the Anthracite finish to tie the drawer interior to door and frame colors. Contractors replacing a damaged side member on an existing AvanTech YOU installation can source this profile as the left-hand replacement without pulling the full drawer set. In all three cases, the buying decision starts with confirming nominal length (500mm here), side height (101mm), and handedness (left) before adding to the order.

The Right Member for a Consistent Anthracite Build

Specifying every AvanTech YOU component in Anthracite from the start is the straightforward path to a finished interior that reads as one system — and this left-hand side profile is the structural starting point for each drawer in that run.
