TANDEMBOX Antaro M Height Drawer | 500mm

$412.54

A handle-free drawer and bin system that opens with a touch and closes in silence — entirely mechanical, entirely reliable.

Built around Blum's TIP-ON BLUMOTION mechanism, this TANDEMBOX antaro M-height system integrates push-to-open convenience with soft-close dampening in a single, self-contained unit. The M-height (83mm) side profile keeps the visual line low and clean, while the 500mm nominal length suits standard 800mm cabinet carcasses. Anthracite steel sides and an integrated bin tray deliver a cohesive finish that holds up under daily kitchen use.

Answers from experts.

Buying Guide

Is TANDEMBOX antaro still a good choice for modern kitchens?

Yes. Although Blum has introduced newer drawer platforms, TANDEMBOX antaro remains a popular choice because of its proven reliability, clean straight-sided design and excellent value. Many cabinet makers continue to specify it for residential kitchens, bathrooms and laundries because it delivers smooth operation, controlled soft closing with BLUMOTION and long-term durability. For homeowners who want dependable Blum quality without necessarily choosing the latest premium drawer system, TANDEMBOX antaro continues to be an excellent investment.

Comparison

What's the difference between TANDEMBOX antaro and LEGRABOX?

Both systems are manufactured by Blum and provide exceptional drawer performance, but they are designed for different priorities. LEGRABOX features ultra-slim drawer sides and a more architectural appearance suited to luxury kitchens, while TANDEMBOX antaro focuses on proven functionality, timeless design and excellent value. Homeowners looking for premium aesthetics may prefer LEGRABOX, whereas those seeking dependable everyday performance often find TANDEMBOX antaro to be the ideal balance between quality and budget.

Applications

Where can TANDEMBOX antaro be used?

TANDEMBOX antaro is suitable for kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, wardrobes, home offices and other furniture applications. Its versatile design makes it ideal for everything from shallow cutlery drawers to deep storage drawers for pots, pans and pantry items. Because it is available in multiple heights and configurations, cabinet makers can maintain a consistent look throughout an entire project while meeting different storage requirements.

Performance

Does TANDEMBOX antaro include soft-close functionality?

Yes. When specified with Blum's BLUMOTION technology, TANDEMBOX antaro provides smooth, controlled soft closing that reduces noise and protects cabinetry from unnecessary impact. This feature is one of the reasons the system has remained popular for many years, particularly in busy family kitchens where drawers are opened and closed frequently throughout the day.

Installation

Can TANDEMBOX antaro replace older drawer systems?

In many cases it can, but compatibility depends on the existing cabinet dimensions, runner positions and available installation space. Retrofitting usually requires replacing the runners and drawer components rather than simply swapping drawer boxes. Consulting an experienced cabinet maker or hardware specialist helps ensure the correct components are selected for your renovation project.

Durability

How long does TANDEMBOX antaro last?

TANDEMBOX antaro is engineered for long-term residential use using Blum's proven runner technology. With correct installation and normal household use, homeowners can expect years of smooth, reliable performance. Routine maintenance is minimal and generally involves keeping the runners clean and avoiding excessive overloading of drawers.

Buying Guide

Is TANDEMBOX antaro the right choice for my renovation?

If you're renovating and want a drawer system with an established reputation for quality, reliability and value, TANDEMBOX antaro is an excellent option. It offers dependable Blum engineering, soft-close functionality and versatile storage solutions while remaining more budget-friendly than some premium alternatives. It is particularly well suited to homeowners seeking long-lasting performance without compromising everyday usability.
