A Bold Anthracite Finish for the AvanTech YOU Drawer System, 450 mm Right-Hand Profile

The AvanTech YOU Drawer Side Profile in Anthracite is a right-hand steel side profile designed for Hettich's AvanTech YOU drawer system. At 187 mm tall and 450 mm long, it suits medium-depth cabinet drawers and brings a dark, warm-neutral interior tone to the finished box.

Key Features

• Anthracite finish delivers a dark, low-gloss interior that reads as a premium design detail in handleless and contemporary kitchens.
• 187 mm profile height provides substantial interior depth, well suited to pot drawers and deep storage pulls.
• 450 mm nominal length pairs with AvanTech YOU runners and back components at this system length to complete a working drawer.
• Steel construction gives the profile structural rigidity without adding visible bulk to the drawer interior.
• Right-hand orientation — order both a left-hand and a right-hand profile to build one complete drawer box side assembly.
• AvanTech YOU platform part — components from this system are not interchangeable with other Hettich series or other brands.

Where This Profile Fits Your Build

A 450 mm nominal-length drawer suits standard base-cabinet depth in most residential and commercial kitchen applications. At 187 mm, the side height accommodates pots, deep utensil storage, and tall pantry items without requiring a gallery rail to retain contents. The Anthracite finish coordinates naturally with dark lacquer or wood-grain fronts, and reads cleanly against both light and dark interior cabinet finishes. Cabinet shops building handleless European kitchen programs frequently reach for darker system tones when the door program calls for them — Anthracite places the entire drawer interior in the same color family as a dark-toned front without an aftermarket liner.

Steel Build, Anthracite Finish

The profile is formed steel, the structural material Hettich specifies for the AvanTech YOU side wall. Steel keeps the profile stiff along its full 450 mm run under load and resists the racking forces a deep, loaded drawer produces. The Anthracite coating is applied at the factory, so the color is consistent across the interior faces. Because material and finish data come from Hettich's own attribute set, no additional surface treatment is required before assembly. No cleanability or coating-durability data beyond the factory finish specification is available from the source — consult Hettich for care guidance.

Who Orders This Profile

Cabinet shops running AvanTech YOU as their production system will order this profile when a project calls for Anthracite interiors. It is a component order, not a complete drawer kit — the side profile is one part of the system, ordered alongside the matching left-hand profile, the runner set, front fixings, and back panel for that nominal length. Kitchen designers specifying a dark handleless program will often call out the Anthracite system color so the shop orders the matched profile and runner set together. Renovation contractors replacing damaged components in an existing AvanTech YOU installation should confirm the system series, nominal length, and side height before ordering.

Build the Interior to Match the Front

When the door program is dark, the drawer interior should follow — the Anthracite profile keeps the full box in the same tone, so nothing looks out of place when the drawer is open. Pair this right-hand profile with its left-hand counterpart and the remaining 450 mm AvanTech YOU components to close out the drawer build cleanly.
