The Disconnect Between Design and Buy.
We know the cycle: The Architect designs a high-functioning kitchen with specific workflows. The plans go to Purchasing. Purchasing sees a line item for “Cabinet Accessories” and swaps the specified high-end hardware for a generic, static shelf to save 2% on the unit cost. The Result: A building that looks like the rendering but functions like a cheap rental. The “Guide” to protecting the integrity of the kitchen starts with how you write the spec.
The New Construction Guide to Kitchen Specs:
- Spec Performance, Not Just Product. Write “Cabinet Dish Rack.” Spec: “Integrated, Bottomless, Ventilated Drying System – Aluminum/Polystyrene Construction.” The purchasing agent knows to buy a functional accessory.
- Standardize the “Wet Zone.”In multi-unit developments, the sink cabinet is the most critical operational zone. Standardize your upper cabinets to 24″, 30″, or 36” widths immediately above the sink. This allows Purchasing to order our DripDry units in bulk sizes that fit perfectly without custom carpentry, keeping labor costs low. Order cabinets without the bottom floor.
- Lock in the “Health Code” Advantage. Remind the Purchasing department that the specified hardware isn’t just aesthetic; it’s compliance. Using terms like “Sanitary Air-Drying Provision” in the construction documents makes the item “uncuttable” during budget reviews because it is tied to health and safety standards.
The Purchasing Agent’s Best Friend. We make the “Buy” easy.
- Global Logistics: We ship worldwide, ensuring your project in Dubai, New York, or London gets the exact same hardware on time.
- Consistent SKUs: We don’t discontinue core sizes. You can spec us for a 5-year phased build and know the product will be there for Phase 10.
Don’t settle for a kitchen that just holds things. Build a kitchen that does things. It’s time to embrace the “Open” concept for creative utility.
