6 ASSISTED LIVING - ROPOX / The benchtop reaches new heights Ropox benchtop systems Having the benchtop adjusted to the perfect height, makes a big difference for each activity. Different heights are required to knead dough, stir pots, chop vegetables or wash up. It s a huge advantage to be able to adjust the benchtop height whether standing or seated, promoting selfsufficiency and optimal working conditions in the kitchen. What s more, our solutions offer seated users more leg space and the freedom to move around with ease. 6

Our goal is to make it easy to see and reach everything in all wall cabinets the solution you choose, will depend on ability to reach when either standing or seated. Maybe straight up/down movement which brings everything into reach, or to make things even easier the diagonal brings the whole cabinet to the front of the benchtop, moving over the kettle, toaster or tap and a simple push of a button will adjust the height. > Press pads for adjustment of wall cabinets and benchtop. Safety stop plates beneath the units ensure nothing is trapped between the unit and benchtop. Again, the needs and situation decide what s best. Together, we can find the perfect solution! 8

For further safety, wall cabinets can be connected to benchtop frames via Ropox Smartboxes to avoid the trapping risk between wall cabinets and benchtops, particularly when the benchtops are moved up. Ropox Smartboxes can avoid the trapping risk between height adjustable benchtops installed next to each other. It s important that the side and front fascias have no benchtop overhang. Ropox safety strips ensure that benchtops don t just stop, but reverse their movement immediately when safety strip is activated. 11
