Table and Work Surface Extension Solutions

Richelieu offers a full line of table and work surface extension mechanisms:
  • Comprised of heavy-duty slides to be pulled out manually
  • Tops can be made from any panel or board material
  • Choose panels to either match or contrast with existing countertops
  • Some systems include a center leg for additional support

Advantages:
  • Use extended peninsula tables as lunch counters, for receptions, or as extra prep areas
  • When done, simply fold the top and slide it back under the counter into a drawer-size space
  • Use a hinged drawer front to hide the mechanism and keep the space looking neat and streamlined
