This is a 550mm (22 inch) MERIVOBOX cabinet profile from Blum, a steel drawer system side member rated for 70 kg (154 lb) per pair with integrated soft-close and full extension. It is sold as a set covering both left-hand and right-hand members for one drawer.
The 550mm nominal length is a common choice for standard 24-inch-deep base cabinets where the drawer box runs close to full depth. Full extension means the contents ride out to the face of the cabinet, which matters in kitchen and pantry drawers where access to the back of the box is part of the function. At 70 kg capacity, this profile handles heavy pot drawers, tool drawers, and utility pulls without compromising the soft-close action. Cabinet shops specifying a consistent, high-load MERIVOBOX drawer across a run of base cabinets will find the zinc finish blends into standard interior cabinet environments.
MERIVOBOX is Blum's mid-tier metal drawer system, built on double-walled steel side profiles that replace wood drawer sides entirely. The zinc-plated finish on this cabinet profile provides a neutral, low-glare surface inside the cabinet carcase. Unlike painted or epoxy-coated profiles that can chip under contact with heavy drawer contents, the zinc plating offers consistent coverage across the profile's formed geometry. The runner and soft-close mechanism are integrated into the profile rather than added on, keeping the wall thickness slim. The drawer member mates with the cabinet member here to form the complete running system; the drawer bottom, back, and front are supplied by the shop to Blum's cutting specification for MERIVOBOX.
Cabinet shops running MERIVOBOX as their standard metal box system will need this profile wherever a 550mm depth and zinc finish are called out. The 70 kg rating makes it the right call for clients specifying heavy-duty kitchen storage, home office builds with loaded file or printer drawers, or commercial casework where drawer contents are heavier than a typical flatware load. Designers specifying handle-less kitchens with the full MERIVOBOX platform — fronts, front fixings, and runners all from the same system — will find that the zinc profile reads cleanly behind light-colored fronts. This is a cabinet member set only; the drawer members and any front fixing brackets are separate MERIVOBOX components ordered by nominal length and side height to match.
Yes. The orientation attribute lists both left-hand and right-hand, so one set covers the cabinet-side installation for a single drawer. The drawer members are a separate order.
Per pair — meaning the two cabinet profiles together carry 70 kg. That is the working load for one drawer built to MERIVOBOX specification.
MERIVOBOX is designed for frameless (European) cabinet construction. Face-frame installations require rear mounting brackets; check Blum's MERIVOBOX installation specification for the bracket requirements before ordering for a face-frame project.
No. MERIVOBOX front fixings, locking devices, and runners are specific to the MERIVOBOX system. They do not interchange with LEGRABOX or TANDEMBOX components even at the same nominal length.
These are the cabinet-side members. A complete MERIVOBOX drawer also requires the drawer members (a separate SKU), front fixing brackets matched to the side height, and a bottom panel, back, and front cut to Blum's MERIVOBOX dimensions.
When the spec calls for full extension, high capacity, and a zinc finish in a MERIVOBOX build, this 550mm cabinet profile set is the direct answer — order it alongside the matching drawer members and front fixings to complete the system.
