The main front styles

Here we've gathered the main materials and finishes that are easy to compare online. We select other options to fit the task and technical requirements of a specific project.

Front details

What changes besides the colour

The edge, the frame profile and the opening line affect the front's pattern at least as much as the shade or wood texture.

Black GOLA profile between light-coloured fronts

GOLA profile

The profile's colour sets the line between fronts

A black profile becomes a graphic accent; a light or metallic one separates neighbouring planes less.

Local milled grip in the top edge of a light-coloured front

Milled grip

Convenient opening without a separate handle

The grip is formed directly in the front, so it needs no applied handle or separate profile and keeps the kitchen's surface as one unbroken plane. The local cutout appears only in the grip area, without running a line across the whole row.

Slim frame around a light-coloured front

Frame

The frame profile adds depth to a smooth plane

A slim frame keeps the front's restrained look but gives a visible outline in side light.
