Introduction: Why Kitchen Accessories Matter More Than Cabinets
In modern modular kitchens, functionality depends far more on accessories than on shutters or carcass boards. Well-chosen kitchen hardware improves storage efficiency, reduces daily effort and significantly increases the life of the kitchen.
This guide is designed for Bangalore homeowners, interior designers and contractors planning modular kitchens in 2026—covering essential accessories, how to choose them and which products work best for Indian cooking habits.
1. Tandem Boxes (Drawer Systems)
Tandem boxes replace traditional drawers and are designed to carry heavy loads while offering smooth, silent movement. They’re the most noticeable daily-use upgrade in a modular kitchen.
- Best for: Pots & pans drawers, deep storage under hob, grocery drawers
- What to check: Load rating (30–50 kg), depth (e.g., 470mm), full extension, soft close

2. Cutlery & Drawer Organisers
Organisers keep daily-use cutlery and tools from turning into a cluttered drawer. This small add-on makes a big difference in kitchen usability.
- Best for: Top drawers near prep area
- What to check: Trimmable fit, inner drawer width, fixed partitions

3. Bottle Pull-Outs (Oils, Condiments & Tall Storage)
Bottle pull-outs are ideal for Indian kitchens because oils and condiments are used daily. A pull-out keeps everything visible, stable and easy to access without spills.
- Best for: Slim base cabinet near the hob
- What to check: Soft close, tiers, cabinet width & depth compatibility

4. Waste Bin Systems (Built-in Under-Sink)
Built-in waste bins keep the kitchen hygienic and reduce clutter on the floor. Planning it during the kitchen design stage avoids awkward retrofits later.

7. Lift-Up Hardware (Overhead Shutters)
Lift-up mechanisms (gas pumps) make overhead shutters easier and safer to use—especially in tall wall cabinets where repeated opening/closing can cause sagging or slamming.

- Placement: Put bottle pull-outs near the hob and bins under the sink for best workflow
