One of the most efficient ways to utilise corner spaces in your kitchen is by installing corner cabinets. These specialised cabinets are designed to make the most of the corner space, providing ample storage while ensuring easy access to your kitchen essentials. Opt for innovative corner cabinet solutions such as pull-out shelves, rotating carousels, or swing-out units that maximise storage capacity and minimise wasted space. Say goodbye to rummaging in dark, inaccessible corners and hello to a well-organized and efficient kitchen!

Dealing with the challenging kitchen corner area! Here are three clever ideas to maximize the utility of your kitchen corner space.

Given the abundance of kitchen appliances and tools in the market today, the need for kitchen storage space has never been greater. Nobody wants their countertops cluttered with items lacking a proper place, or their cabinets so tightly packed that accessing items becomes a challenge.

Therefore, when planning a new kitchen, the focus is on utilizing every inch of space efficiently - including tackling obstacles like plumbing, electrical outlets, and, notably, how to make the most of that tricky corner area.

Regrettably, kitchen corners remain a constant, but innovative solutions like the Hafele LeMans II unit have been designed to address accessibility and functionality issues in confined corners. By employing suitable solutions, you'll realize that the supposedly 'unused space' in your kitchen becomes incredibly practical.

Here are three smart corner solutions to consider for your new kitchen:

1. LeMans II

When it comes to gaining full and unobstructed entry to your corner cabinets, the LeMans unit provides shelves equipped with a distinctive swivel pull-out mechanism. These swivel shelves enable you to view all the contents of your cupboard from front to back, and can be extended individually or all at once. With a load capacity of 25kg per shelf, there are virtually no restrictions on what you can store – whether it's mixing bowls and containers or larger items like a stand mixer or blender.

In addition to these features, the LeMans unit offers several other specialized functionalities to simplify your life. You can tailor the unit to fit your space by selecting either two or four shelves, and choosing between left and right-hand corner configurations. Each shelf is equipped with steel chrome-plated railing for both style and security. Furthermore, the shelves are coated with a special non-slip material to prevent items from shifting during movement. For added convenience, an extra silent soft closing system is also available, ensuring effortless handling of your equipment.

3. Revo 90°

The Revo 90° carousel fitting provides unobstructed access to all items inside your cupboard through a smooth-opening folding corner door. Its rotating shelves eliminate the concept of a front or back in your cupboard, allowing you to effortlessly bring everything into view by swiveling items left or right.

With the Revo 90°, you can customize your cupboard to fit your specific requirements. The carousel fittings are fully height adjustable, and you have the option to expand the basic two-shelf system with additional shelves. Each shelf of the Revo 90° can support up to 25kg, offering limitless possibilities. Moreover, adjusting the closing speed is simple and tool-free, enabling you to achieve the perfect movement for the contents inside

2. Magic Corner

The Magic Corner unit is designed to maximize the utilization of space in corner cabinets that are 900 and 1000mm wide. It is particularly suitable for storing bulky items such as pots and pans. This innovative solution allows you to effortlessly pull out two door-mounted shelves along with a connected set of two shelves in one smooth motion. Notably, the second set of shelves extends from the deepest and typically inaccessible part of the corner space. Once fully extended, all your items will be easily reachable within moments.

Featuring a semi-basket design, all the shelves ensure that your items remain organized and secure during movement. Additionally, the Magic Corner incorporates intelligent features like the Silent System, yet it is straightforward to install. The unit and its components are designed for quick installation, prioritizing convenience using Hafele's system.
