And this is what the swinging door of the future looks like!

No loss of space on the inside

Great news from Belgium and specifically from the Van Hoecke headquarters in Sint-Niklaas. For with AVENTOS HKi, Blum has succeeded in perfectly combining technology and design. The perfect movement of the folding door system developed in-house has now been made so compact that it fits seamlessly into the cabinet side wall and is thus completely hidden from view.

The motto under which all this was done is clear: The more inconspicuous and space-saving furniture fittings are, the better! The AVENTOS HKi hinged door system is therefore completely integrated into the side of the cabinet, without sacrificing the proven Blum quality and technology. What's super interesting from a technical point of view: installation is already possible with side panels from 16 mm thick. This system thus proves to be the ideal solution for using a hinged door system without losing space on the inside of the cabinet. 

Moreover, the user does not have to sacrifice anything in terms of ease of use. The AVENTOS HKi provides total control of the front and can be equipped with BLUMOTION for soft, silent closing or with TIP-ON for easy opening of the front even in handleless cabinets. Convenience serves man!

Visible elegance 

AVENTOS HKi blends uniquely with the furniture, regardless of the type of front. Even with a hinged door with transparent glass, the hardware cannot be seen when the hinged door is closed. When the front is opened, the lever appears in elegant Onyx black. This color goes perfectly with dark surfaces or forms an elegant accent with lighter furniture. 

Additional Services 

To facilitate the processing of AVENTOS HKi, Van Hoecke offers a number of additional services:

- The company is happy to assist in making the integrated cutouts in the side walls;

- Pre-milled boards are available upon request. These can be self-lacquered or veneered in the desired finish;

- If one chooses to mill out the recess along the side, cover caps are available to tuck away the hardware element. These can be fitted with a smaller, personalized cover cap;

- Molds and cutters to make the cutouts can be ordered upon request; 

- When ordering a frame door, feel free to ask if the appropriate bores can be provided for the AVENTOS HKi front mount.
