Anthracite Finish and a Precise Left-Hand Fit

This AvanTech YOU drawer side profile is the left-hand steel side component for Hettich's AvanTech YOU drawer system, sized at 400mm in length and 187mm in height and finished in Anthracite. It is the structural wall of the drawer — the piece that carries the runner, anchors the front fixing, and closes the interior on the left side.

Key Features

• Anthracite finish brings a dark, neutral tone to the drawer interior that pairs well with darker cabinetry, matte fronts, and handle-less kitchens.
• 187mm side height suits medium-depth storage drawers where a standard low-profile side would leave too little interior volume.
• 400mm nominal length is designed for shallower cabinet depths, fitting the AvanTech YOU system's component set at that nominal length.
• Left-hand orientation means this profile mounts on the left side of the drawer box when facing the cabinet from the front; pair it with the matching right-hand profile to complete one drawer.
• Steel construction gives the side profile the rigidity to carry load through the runner without flex.
• AvanTech YOU system component — engineered to work with Hettich's AvanTech YOU runners, front fixings, and accessories; not interchangeable with other drawer systems.

Where This Profile Fits the Build

The AvanTech YOU system separates the side profile from the runner, so the installer mounts the profiles to the drawer box and the runners to the cabinet, then snaps the two together. This profile is the left-side wall for that assembly. At 400mm, it suits cabinet depths in the shorter range of the AvanTech YOU program — think shallow base drawers, desk drawers, or secondary storage where depth is limited. The 187mm height provides meaningful interior volume without requiring an unusually deep cabinet above the drawer line. Builders fitting out a run of cabinets with consistent Anthracite interiors will want this profile alongside its right-hand counterpart and the matching nominal-length runner set.

Material and Finish

The profile is formed steel, which is the structural choice for a metal drawer side that integrates the runner geometry and front-fixing attachment without depending on a wood substrate. The Anthracite finish is a dark, muted tone that reads as a deliberate interior color rather than a default. In handle-less kitchens and dark-painted cabinetry, an Anthracite drawer interior carries the color story through the open drawer instead of interrupting it with a bright or silver wall. It also gives designers a consistent finish reference across the AvanTech YOU accessory and organization components that share the same color program.

Who Orders This Profile and Why

Cabinet shops specifying AvanTech YOU for a kitchen or closet project will pull this profile when the design calls for Anthracite interiors and the cabinet depth lands at 400mm nominal. It is also the right order for a replacement left-hand side on an existing AvanTech YOU installation — the profile is a discrete, system-matched component, not a full drawer kit. Designers specifying a handle-less kitchen with dark or matte fronts often extend the Anthracite finish into the drawer interior so the opened drawer matches the closed facade. This profile supports that decision at the component level.

The Right Component for a Coordinated Anthracite Interior

When the cabinet depth and interior color both need to be right, this left-hand Anthracite profile at 400mm nominal length is the precise AvanTech YOU component to reach for — no adapting, no substituting, just the part that belongs there.
