True Handleless Profiles Overview

The Better Kitchens True Handleless system is designed to create a modern, seamless kitchen look with no visible handles.

This guide explains the key components that make up the system and how they fit together.


How True Handleless Profiles Work Within the Kitchen

Key Components

Each profile and joint plays a role in achieving a streamlined handle-free design:

  • Top Profile – Runs along the top edge of base units, allowing grip access to the door.
  • Mid Profile – Sits between stacked units, such as drawers or oven housings.
  • Vertical Profile – Used at the end of a run or between tall units.
  • Appliance Spacer – Provides a neat finish where profiles meet integrated appliances.
  • Mid External Corner – Designed for external corners where mid profiles meet.
  • Top External Corner – Used where top profiles meet at an external corner.
  • Built-in Handle for Wall Units – Ensures a consistent handleless design for wall cabinets.

How Profiles Work with Cabinets​

True Handleless profiles are designed to integrate seamlessly with kitchen cabinets, ensuring both functionality and aesthetics. Here’s how they fit:

  • Base Units – Top profiles are fixed just below the worktop, providing a continuous grip space for opening doors and drawers.

  • Drawer Units – Mid profiles are installed between stacked drawers, maintaining an uninterrupted handleless design.

  • Tall Units – Vertical profiles run between tall cabinets and are available for both single and double door configurations. They provide seamless access while maintaining the sleek aesthetic of the kitchen.

  • Integrated Appliances – Most integrated appliances can be accommodated with careful planning, ensuring a smooth transition between profiles and surrounding units.

  • Corners and End Panels – External and internal corner pieces, along with end plates, provide a neat and professional finish where profiles meet walls or change direction.

Better Kitchens cabinets are factory machined to accommodate True Handleless Kitchen profiles, ensuring a precise fit without the need for modifications. This allows for a clean, professional installation with minimal effort.

These profiles are attached using secure brackets and designed to align perfectly with Better Kitchens cabinets, ensuring ease of use and a premium appearance.
