In high-quality custom kitchen cabinets, functional hardware plays a crucial role in enhancing the overall functionality and aesthetics of the space. Here are some key features of functional hardware commonly found in custom kitchen cabinets:

1. Soft-C Mechanisms: soft-close drawer slides and door hinges are commonly used in lightweight kitchen cabinets. These mechanisms allow drawers and cabinet doors to close smoothly and quietly, preventing them from slamming shut. This feature enhances convenience and reduces cabinet wear and tear.

2. Pull-out drawers and shelves: Pull-out drawers and shelves maximise storage space and make it easier to access items in the back of the cabinet. 

3. Customisable drawer organisers: Lightweight kitchen cabinets often come with customisable drawer organisers to keep utensils, cutlery and other kitchen tools neatly organised.

4. Appliance garages: Appliance garages are built-in compartments within kitchen cabinets designed to hide small kitchen appliances, such as toasters, blenders or coffee makers, when not in use.

5. Hidden trash and recycling bins: In lightweight kitchen cabinets, trash and recycling bins can be seamlessly integrated into the cabinets. 

6. Built-in lighting: Lighting is a must-have element in light luxury kitchen cabinets. Integrated LED lighting can be installed along the interior of the cabinets to provide functional lighting and create an elegant atmosphere. 

These are just some of the common functional hardware, and with over 20 years of manufacturing experience YALIG is well positioned to customise your own smart home.
