For example, modular kitchens in Leroy Merlin are very popular, despite the fact that they are released relatively recently. Quite often they are compared with body products, although this comparison is not true.

Cabinet products are a set of elements that are assembled into a specific interior detail: a bedside table, wardrobe, bed, etc. Whereas a modular kitchen from the manufacturer consists of separate unified parts that are assembled into separate systems.

A characteristic feature that such a system possesses is a clear binding of certain functional components. In the case of a kitchen room, such "tied" products are hoods, dishwashers and some other elements that require piping to utilities. Only the various cabinets remain independent, which can be arranged in any order.

The main advantage is the ease of assembly. They can be assembled by hand without any problems. In addition, it has a large number of options for various configurations. Its functionality is an undoubted advantage. Modern modular systems for the kitchen are quite easy to select for both large rooms and rooms with limited dimensions.

Economy class

Economy class, i.e. inexpensive modular system for the kitchen, is a ready-made set of interior items. Functionality and portability allows you to select the required combination element by element. The practicality lies in the fact that you can not only change the location of the cabinets at your discretion, but if necessary, it is easy to buy another product.

Unified and inexpensive components allow you to freely distribute room space. Such ready-made kitchen modular systems, as a rule, are much cheaper than options made to order.

Materials used for production

Traditional materials are used for production, which serve as the basis for other options.

It:

• Chipboard and MDF,
• Glass,
• Metal,
• Plastic.

The technologies that are used in modern production make it possible to produce high-quality products that can fit into the most original interior design. Naturally, the price of such furniture will depend on the material from which it is made.

The most expensive, of course, will be natural wood products. The most budgetary products are plastic. The main disadvantage of furniture made of chipboard is the high toxicity of this material. This is due to the use of a large amount of phenol-formaldehyde resins to form boards.

Modern sets often feature decorated glass fronts for kitchensthat look pretty presentable.

Choice of modular sections

The photo shows standard modules.

The kit consists of standard items that can be selected in a wide variety of variations. The package contains a large number of components such as polished boards, shelves, etc. Each product or section can be completed with a different number of components.

The main idea is the possibility of completing an infinite number of compositions from the same unified elements. So, the Regina modular kitchen has a large number of standard structural elements. Among the large number, you can choose only those that fit your room.

The kitchens of Chile and Ikea have a similar design. Naturally, they differ and have a different design and color of the facades. One of the most popular manufacturers of such furniture in the domestic market is the furniture factory "Tri Ya". These novelties are by far the most popular.

Important!
Ikea not only makes it possible to purchase cheap furniture.
There you can see many interesting ideas and supplement the standard set with original details.

Assembling a modular kitchen

You can arrange the unified elements as you like. The assembly is no different from the children's LEGO-constructor, except in size. Even a special instruction is not required for placement and assembly.

Important!
Different sections can be purchased at different times and added to the existing set later without breaking the harmony.
This is one of the important advantages of modular furniture.

The assembly will require the following set of tools:

• Perforator;
• Roulette;
• A hammer;
• Pencil;
• screws and self-tapping screws (they will be needed if they are lacking or missing in the basic set);
• hacksaw (you will need to cut in a sink or cutouts for other elements of utilities if necessary).

Assembly recommendations

Preparation for assembly.

1. The assembly begins with products that will be on the edge. For corner options, the assembly starts with the corner piece. Linear combinations begin to collect from an element that rests against one of the walls.
2. Many sections have a wall panel in the work area. When installing such a panel, it is necessary to provide for cutting holes for the socket group, which, as a rule, is above the desktop.
3. Mounting wall cabinets for kitchens carried out on a special profile that is attached to the wall.
   
4. The height of the attachment must be selected taking into account that the wall cabinet would cover the wall panel or tile by 1-2 cmlocated above the kitchen work area.

Conclusion

Such furniture should be purchased only after you clearly plan its location in the room. After that, it will be easy to find elements that fit into your room, and any meal with such a new thing will become much more pleasant.
