Floor-to-Ceiling Tall Cabinets Without Ceiling Trim – Seamless Integration for Your Kitchen
SPACE MARVEL
Utilise elegant heights and design your spaces with intention — for a truly harmonious atmosphere.
Elegance in Height
A seamless floor-to-ceiling tall cabinet line becomes possible without the need for a ceiling trim, as the fronts are extended beyond the height of the carcass. Structural elements such as ventilation ducts can be elegantly concealed in this way.
Technical details about our upward door extension (Türverlängerung)
Everything you need to know about upward Türverlängerung in kitchen planning.
How can a full-height Hochschrank row be achieved without a ceiling panel?
A full-height tall cabinet run can be achieved through the use of Frontverlängerung above the carcass.
What are the advantages of the LEICHT solution?
- Continuous vertical joint pattern — no visible separation line
- Concealment of structural elements such as ventilation ducts
- Optimal adaptation to varying ceiling heights
- Combination with storage extension possible
What aesthetic advantage does an upward Frontverlängerung offer?
The gap between wall cabinets and the ceiling is typically concealed by a horizontal ceiling panel running across the full width. By extending the cabinet doors upward — a refined application of Türverlängerung — this horizontal element is elegantly eliminated, and the vertical lines of the cabinetry create a seamless, uninterrupted transition to the ceiling.
How far above the cabinet can the door extend?
We recommend an overhang of no more than 13.25 cm, which also allows for the neat concealment of ventilation ducts from range hoods.
Is the gap between the upper cabinet and the ceiling, for example, 10 cm?
To maximise storage capacity, a combination of cabinet height adjustment and Frontverlängerung is recommended.
