AvanTech YOU Left Hand Drawer Side Profile
AvanTech YOU left hand drawer side profile defines one side of an AvanTech YOU drawer using a dedicated Hettich America Corporation component that aligns with the Hettich AvanTech YOU Drawer System. The 187mm drawer height establishes the side wall height, which sets the usable internal depth for stored items and keeps the visual line consistent across adjacent drawers built to the same specification. The 550mm length positions this part for drawer depths built around that run, so the slide engagement and cabinet layout follow a predictable pattern. The left hand configuration locates this profile on the left side of the drawer box, helping installers organize handed components accurately during assembly. The anthracite finish creates a dark, uniform look along the side, which supports modern design schemes when used with matching system parts. Powder coated steel construction forms a rigid side element that resists everyday drawer loads during normal cabinet use.
Key Drawer Side Details That Support Builds
- The 187mm drawer height sets a fixed vertical dimension for the side, which simplifies planning stack heights and aligning multiple drawers in a bank that share the same visual reveal.
- The 550mm length defines the drawer depth this profile is meant to serve, helping cabinetmakers design case interior dimensions and slide positions around a known run.
- The left hand orientation identifies this part for the left side of the drawer, which keeps assembly organized when pairing it with the corresponding right side in the AvanTech YOU system.
- The anthracite color delivers a dark tone along the side, supporting coordinated aesthetics wherever matching anthracite AvanTech YOU components are used in the project.
- Powder coated steel material provides a solid metal side wall that supports typical drawer contents while the finish adds a protective surface during everyday opening and closing.
- Integration into the Hettich AvanTech YOU Drawer System links this profile to a defined product class, so its dimensions and interfaces are engineered for that specific drawer construction approach.
Installation Alignment With AvanTech YOU System
This AvanTech YOU left hand drawer side profile fits into the Hettich AvanTech YOU Drawer System, so the 187mm height and 550mm length work with system components designed around those measures. That alignment supports predictable clearances between drawer fronts, sides, and slides during layout. The powder coated steel body presents straight, stable reference edges along the left side, giving builders a firm line when squaring the drawer bottom and front to the profile. The dedicated left hand designation helps keep orientation consistent from bench assembly through installation into cabinet cases, which reduces rework caused by reversed parts. Because anthracite finish runs the full side, drawer fronts and interiors can be chosen to complement that tone, keeping both installation and final appearance tied to a known color standard.
Using This Drawer Side Profile In Projects
Where This Hettich Drawer Side Profile Applies
This Hettich AvanTech YOU Drawer System component serves as the left side wall in drawers built with the AvanTech YOU platform, so it is applied wherever that system is specified. The 187mm drawer height positions it for applications needing a medium-height side, such as general storage drawers in kitchens, baths, or casework using that vertical dimension. Its 550mm length focuses it on projects laid out around that depth, helping shops standardize cabinet carcass depth and slide positions. Anthracite drawer side profile color ties visually into other anthracite AvanTech YOU parts, supporting cohesive design in contemporary installations. Powder coated steel construction allows this profile to participate as a structural side member in drawer boxes that see routine opening and closing in residential or commercial cabinetry.
Why Height, Length, And Adjustment Features Matter
The specified 187mm height controls how high stored items sit relative to the drawer bottom and front, which can limit tipping over the side in everyday use while defining the sight line when the drawer is open. With a 550mm length, the profile helps define drawer depth, which affects storage capacity and how far the drawer projects from the cabinet when fully extended. Integrated vertical, lateral, and tilt adjustment built into this component gives installers ways to fine-tune drawer position within the AvanTech YOU system, which supports precise alignment between drawer fronts and surrounding faces. Vertical adjustment helps set even reveals above and below the drawer front. Lateral adjustment lets the drawer move slightly side to side, aiding in achieving parallel gaps to adjacent fronts. Tilt adjustment adds control over the front plane, so the top and bottom edges can align cleanly with doors or neighboring drawers, resulting in a uniform, professional appearance.
Common Questions About This AvanTech YOU Component
What role does this Hettich 9255216 part play in a drawer?
The Hettich 9255216 part functions as the left hand drawer side profile, forming the left wall of an AvanTech YOU drawer and defining height, depth, and finish on that side.
How does the 187mm drawer height affect my cabinet layout?
The 187mm drawer height establishes the side wall height, so drawer banks using this part share a consistent vertical reveal and interior depth suited to that medium-height profile.
What does the 550mm length mean for drawer depth?
The 550mm length defines the drawer depth this profile supports, guiding cabinet carcass depth, slide choice within the system, and the overall storage capacity of the drawer.
Why is the left hand orientation important for installation?
The left hand orientation identifies this profile for the left side of the drawer, helping builders match it with a right side profile and maintain intended system geometry.
How do the vertical, lateral, and tilt adjustments help?
Integrated vertical, lateral, and tilt adjustment lets installers fine-tune drawer front position, achieving consistent gaps and flush alignment within the AvanTech YOU system layout.
What advantages does powder coated steel construction provide?
Powder coated steel construction delivers a rigid side wall with a durable finish, supporting everyday drawer loads while maintaining the anthracite appearance over time.
Selecting This Drawer Side For System Builds
This AvanTech YOU left hand drawer side profile from Hettich America Corporation pairs a 187mm drawer height, 550mm length, and anthracite finish within the Hettich AvanTech YOU Drawer System. Powder coated steel construction and integrated vertical, lateral, and tilt adjustment position it as a structural and alignment-focused component in system-based drawers. When a project is built around AvanTech YOU dimensions and color standards, choosing this specific left hand profile supports consistent drawer height, depth, and front alignment across the run.
