10 Modular Kitchen Accessories That Upgrade Every Cabinet (With Prices)
Summary
- The true quality of a modular kitchen is in its hardware. Prioritize soft-close hinges and full-extension drawer channels for the biggest impact on daily use and a premium feel.
- Upgrade from traditional wooden drawers to tandem box systems for superior strength and storage capacity. Use specialized fittings like bottle pull-outs and integrated bins to transform awkward spaces into functional storage.
- Small details have a major impact on longevity and organization. A cutlery insert brings order to chaos, while PVC skirting is essential to protect cabinet bases from water damage.
- Avoid project delays by sourcing all your fittings from one place. HomeRun delivers 100% genuine Hettich and Ebco hardware across Bangalore in 60 minutes.
You've spent weeks planning the perfect modular kitchen. The layout is finalized, the shutters are chosen, and the carpenter is ready. Then comes the hardware conversation — and suddenly you're deep in a rabbit hole comparing Hettich and Ebco, trying to decode which product fits which cabinet width, and whether the price difference is actually worth it.
Here's the truth: the difference between a good modular kitchen and a great one isn't the shutters or the countertop granite. It's the hardware — the silent, smooth mechanisms that you interact with dozens of times every day. Get the hardware wrong, and even the most beautiful kitchen feels cheap. Get it right, and the kitchen almost runs itself.
This guide cuts through the confusion. Below is a practical modular kitchen accessories price list for Bangalore, covering 10 essential fittings — what each one does, why it matters, what it costs, and exactly which Hettich or Ebco product to buy. All of these are available for 60-minute delivery across Bangalore through HomeRun, so your project never gets stuck waiting for a missing fitting.
1. Soft Close Hinges — The Single Upgrade That Changes Everything
What it does: A soft-close hinge uses a hydraulic damper to catch a cabinet door in its final few inches of travel, pulling it shut silently and gently. No slamming, ever.
Why it matters: This is the #1 hardware upgrade for a premium kitchen feel. It eliminates jarring noise, protects the cabinet frames from stress damage, and is a genuine safety improvement — no more trapped fingers. Smooth soft-close action is one of the clearest signals of quality workmanship.
Pro-Tip: Get today's prices for all Hettich and Ebco hinges on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Hettich Onsys 4447i — German-engineered, reliable workhorse for overlay doors
- Hettich Sensys 8645i — the premium option with integrated soft-close built into the hinge body
- Ebco Soft Close Hinge (E-HSCAUTO) — excellent Indian-made alternative
Where to buy: Order 100% genuine Hettich and Ebco hinges from HomeRun's Hardware & Fittings collection, with 60-minute delivery to your site.
2. Telescopic Channels — Full Access to Every Drawer
What it does: Ball-bearing drawer slides that allow a drawer to pull out completely beyond the cabinet face, giving you access to 100% of the drawer's depth. Soft-close variants bring the drawer back in silently.
Why it matters: Without full-extension channels, you're perpetually digging around in the back of drawers. For deep base cabinet drawers storing pots, pans, or dry goods, this is non-negotiable. One known caveat is that under-mount runners like the Quadro require parallel cabinet sides — so measure carefully before specifying.
Pro-Tip: Find current pricing for all drawer channels on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Hettich KA 5632 (45kg capacity) — robust regular-close option
- Hettich KA 4732 (35kg, soft-close) — smooth daily-use workhorse
- Hettich Quadro-V6 (30kg, silent under-mount) — cleanest look, highest precision
- Ebco STDS-I / STDS-I-SC — reliable standard and soft-close variants
Where to buy: Full range of lengths and capacities at HomeRun Hardware & Fittings.
3. Tandem Boxes — The Modern Drawer System
What it does: A tandem box is a complete metal drawer system — it includes the sides, runners, and soft-close mechanism. You supply the front, back panel, and base. It replaces the traditional wooden drawer box entirely.
Why it matters: Tandem-style systems, with strong options from Hettich and Ebco, offer superior rigidity, higher load capacities (30–50kg), and a sleek modern aesthetic. They're faster to install, more durable, and maximise internal volume compared to wooden drawers on side-mount channels.
Pro-Tip: See today's prices for tandem box systems on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Hettich InnoTech Atira (Silver, 470mm, 30kg) — cost-effective, popular choice
- Hettich AvanTech (Anthracite, 500mm, 30kg) — sleek high-end finish
- Ebco Pro Motion S3 (50kg, Anthracite) — heavy-duty, excellent value
Where to buy: Complete tandem box sets available at HomeRun Kitchen Systems & Accessories.
4. Bottle Pull-Outs — Turn Awkward Narrow Cabinets Into Prime Storage
What it does: A vertically-oriented, multi-tier wire basket system that mounts inside 150mm–300mm narrow cabinets (typically beside the hob). Designed for oils, sauces, masala bottles, and spice jars.
Why it matters: Without a pull-out, these narrow cabinets are essentially dead space — bottles topple, you can never reach the one at the back, and spills go undetected. A bottle pull-out transforms them into one of the most-used spots in the kitchen.
Pro-Tip: Check current prices for bottle pull-outs on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Hettich Cargo IQ 300 (2-tier) — benchmark product, smooth full-extension pull-out
- Ebco Soft Close Bottle Pull-Out — excellent functionality at a competitive price
Where to buy: Source your bottle pull-outs from HomeRun Kitchen Systems & Accessories — delivered to site in 60 minutes.
5. Cutlery Inserts — The ₹500 Upgrade That Brings Order to Chaos
What it does: A pre-formed tray that fits inside your top drawer to create dedicated slots for spoons, forks, knives, spatulas, and other utensils.
Why it matters: It's the lowest-cost accessory on this list, but few things transform how a kitchen feels to use as much as an organised cutlery drawer. The Hettich OrgaTray's trimmable design is its key advantage — it can be cut to fit the exact internal dimensions of your drawer, so there's no rattle and no wasted space.
Pro-Tip: Get live pricing for cutlery inserts on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Hettich OrgaTray 440 (Trimmable, Silver) — trim to any drawer width for a custom fit
Where to buy: Available from HomeRun Kitchen Systems & Accessories with same-day delivery.
6. Wicker Baskets — Breathable Storage for Vegetables
What it does: A pull-out wicker basket system installed in a base cabinet, used primarily for storing onions, potatoes, ginger, and other vegetables that need airflow to stay fresh.
Why it matters: Vegetables stored in sealed drawers spoil quickly. Wicker allows air to circulate, naturally extending shelf life. It also adds a warm, textural element to an otherwise all-metal or all-laminate kitchen interior — a detail that clients consistently appreciate.
Pro-Tip: Find the latest prices for wicker basket systems on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Hettich Wicker Basket with Beech Runners (500mm) — premium smooth action, elegant look
- Ebco Soft Close Wicker Basket — functional and affordable
Where to buy: Add style and ventilation to your base cabinets with wicker baskets from HomeRun Kitchen Systems.
7. Integrated Waste Bins — Hidden, Hygienic, Hassle-Free
What it does: A bin system that mounts inside a cabinet — either pull-out (on channels) or swing-out (attached to the door). Keeps your dustbin completely out of sight.
Why it matters: An open dustbin on the kitchen floor is an eyesore and a hygiene issue, especially in Bangalore's humidity. Integrated bins contain odours, fit neatly under the sink, and dual-compartment models make wet-dry waste segregation effortless — which is increasingly important for BBMP compliance.
Pro-Tip: Check today's prices for integrated waste bins on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Hettich Waste-Bin.It Classic 13L — compact, clean, reliable
- Ebco Swing Out Rectangular Double — door-mounted, easy access
- Ebco Pull-Out 40L (2×20L) — for serious waste segregation in larger kitchens
Where to buy: Keep your kitchen clean and clutter-free with integrated bins from HomeRun.
8. Dish Drainers — Reclaim Your Counter Space
What it does: A stainless-steel rack system mounted inside a wall cabinet — typically above the sink — with a drip tray to catch water. Washed dishes air-dry inside the cabinet, completely out of view.
Why it matters: A dish rack sitting on the counter is one of the biggest visual disruptors in a clean kitchen. An in-cabinet dish drainer solves this permanently, keeps the counter dry, and adds significant perceived value to any kitchen handover.
Pro-Tip: See current pricing for in-cabinet dish drainers on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Hettich Cargo Dish Drainer Set — durable stainless steel, designed for various cabinet widths
Where to buy: Order the Hettich dish drainer set from HomeRun Kitchen Systems for 60-minute delivery.
9. Roll-Top Shutters — The Sleek Appliance Garage
What it does: A flexible slatted shutter that rolls vertically into a housing unit above a countertop-level cabinet. It opens like a mini roller shutter, revealing storage space for appliances.
Why it matters: This is the cleanest way to create an appliance garage — a dedicated home for your mixer, toaster, coffee machine, or air fryer that keeps them accessible but hidden. Unlike swing-out doors, a roll-top shutter requires zero clearance space in front of the cabinet, which is invaluable in compact Bangalore kitchens.
Pro-Tip: Get today's price for the Ebco Roll Top Pro on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Ebco Roll Top Pro — vertical shutter system with overlay rails included, reliable and well-priced
Where to buy: Create the perfect appliance garage with the Ebco Roll Top Pro, available from HomeRun Kitchen Systems.
10. PVC Skirting — The Finishing Touch That Protects Your Investment
What it does: A polymer strip that clips onto the adjustable legs of base cabinets, covering the gap between the cabinet base and the floor.
Why it matters: This is the most overlooked accessory in any modular kitchen accessories price list, yet it's one of the most important for longevity. Without skirting, every time someone mops the floor, water seeps under the cabinets and slowly damages the plywood or MDF carcasses from below; check the latest plywood price list when budgeting for quality boards. PVC skirting also keeps dust, pests, and kitchen grease from accumulating under the units — a hygiene must in Indian homes.
Pro-Tip: Check current per-metre rates for PVC skirting on HomeRun.
Brand to buy:
- Ebco PVC Skirting Q Plinth & Clip (100mm) — the industry standard, simple clip-on installation
Where to buy: Finish your kitchen properly with Ebco skirting from HomeRun Kitchen Systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most important hardware for a modular kitchen?
The most important hardware upgrades for any modular kitchen are soft-close hinges and full-extension telescopic channels for drawers. These two items have the biggest impact on the daily user experience, eliminating noise from slamming doors and providing complete, easy access to everything you've stored.
Is Hettich better than Ebco for kitchen hardware?
Neither brand is definitively "better"; the best choice depends on your budget and priorities. Hettich is a German brand known for its premium engineering, precision, and often higher price point, making it a benchmark for quality. Ebco is a highly respected Indian brand that offers excellent functionality, durability, and value for money, making it a popular choice for a wide range of projects.
Why are tandem boxes better than regular wooden drawers?
Tandem boxes are superior to traditional wooden drawers because they are a complete system that offers greater strength, higher load capacity (30-50kg), and a smoother, more reliable soft-close action. Their steel construction prevents warping, maximises internal storage volume, and provides a sleeker, more modern aesthetic.
How can I make my kitchen feel premium on a budget?
The most cost-effective way to make a kitchen feel premium is to install soft-close hinges on all cabinet doors. This single, relatively inexpensive upgrade eliminates slamming sounds and adds a touch of quiet luxury. Another budget-friendly tip is to use a trimmable cutlery tray, like the Hettich OrgaTray, to instantly organize your most-used drawer.
What hardware is best for corner cabinets?
To make the most of hard-to-reach corner cabinets, you need specialized hardware. Popular solutions include 'Magic Corners' or 'LeMans' units, which are pull-out systems with shelves that swing out of the cabinet for full access. Another option is a 'Carousel,' a set of rotating trays that spin to bring items to the front.
How do I choose the right size for drawer channels?
You should choose drawer channels based on the internal depth of your cabinet. Measure from the inside face of the cabinet back to the inside edge of the front frame. Then, select a channel that is the next size down. For example, if your cabinet is 520mm deep, you would typically use a 500mm channel. Always refer to the hardware manufacturer's installation guide for precise clearances.
Where can I buy genuine kitchen hardware in Bangalore with fast delivery?
For fast and reliable delivery of genuine kitchen hardware in Bangalore, you can use a quick-commerce platform like HomeRun. They source 100% authentic Hettich, Ebco, and other brand products from authorized dealers and deliver them to your site in as little as 60 minutes, preventing project delays.
