TANDEMBOX antaro SPACE TOWER larder in Grey with frosted glass

What It Is

This is a tall pull-out larder system from Blum, built around their TANDEMBOX antaro drawer mechanism. The unit features five shelves behind frosted glass panels in a grey finish, creating a pantry that slides completely out from your cabinet for full access to stored items.

Where It Fits

The larder requires a cabinet at least 1300mm tall and 453mm deep, making it suitable for tall housing units typically positioned at the end of a kitchen run or integrated into a bank of full-height storage. It works particularly well in contemporary kitchens where the frosted glass adds visual lightness to what could otherwise be a heavy-looking storage element.

How It Works

The entire larder pulls out on Blum's TANDEMBOX antaro runners, bringing all five shelves forward so you can see and reach everything stored inside. The soft-close mechanism ensures it closes gently, while the frosted glass panels keep contents visible but not fully exposed. Each shelf can hold up to 150kg total capacity across the unit.

Why It Matters

Deep larder cupboards often become black holes where items get lost at the back. This system solves that by bringing everything to you. The frosted glass means you can quickly see what's stored where without opening the unit, but the contents remain tidily concealed behind the translucent panels.

Design Consideration

The grey finish and frosted glass work well with handleless kitchen designs and complement both warm and cool colour schemes. However, if your kitchen has a traditional aesthetic or uses a lot of wood finishes, the modern appearance might feel out of place. The 450mm depth also means this won't work in shallower cabinets.

Build Quality

Blum's TANDEMBOX antaro is their premium drawer system, with steel sides and the smooth, precise movement they're known for. The runners carry a lifetime guarantee. The frosted glass panels are practical as they don't show fingerprints as readily as clear glass would.

Closing Guidance

This larder makes most sense if you have the cabinet space and value being able to access all your stored items easily. Consider how much you actually store in tall cupboards and whether the investment matches your usage patterns.
