Open Accessories → Catalog to browse compartment and cabinet accessories or compatible door hardware. Search by name, brand, or article number, filter by category, and open a product to see its photo, dimensions, installation requirements, and estimate. Installed lists the items in the current cabinet scope for editing or removal. On mobile, product details expand the sheet; choosing a location brings back the smaller placement tray so the cabinet stays visible.

Most accessories use placement markers: choose a product, choose Choose location, then select a compatible marker. A green + identifies an available location; an amber ! explains what must change. Free Space uses an existing lift-up door instead of a compartment marker. Top surface asks for its material before showing a full-width marker. Backsplash uses its own focused editor because its material and dimensions are saved directly on one or more cabinets.

For a compartment you have already selected, open Selected → Accessories. The same catalogue shows compatible choices first, the clear opening dimensions, and reasons other products are unavailable. Choosing a product presets the location when only one is eligible; multiple gaps and section selections still need a location choice. LED face buttons adjust that preset location while preserving installed faces. Choose the placement tray's Done to apply the accessory and return to the original part. Opening Accessories from the main toolbar keeps the product-first flow above.

Accessory reference

AccessoryWhere it can goMain requirements and behavior
GrommetOpen compartment or cabinet topCable opening; a compartment placement needs its back panel. One matching placement per zone.
Hanging railCompartment shelf zoneAt least 50 cm clear height, at least 30 cm cabinet depth, both side panels, and no conflicting drawer or lift in the same zone.
Wardrobe liftCompartment shelf zoneHäfele 805.11.154 pull-down rail; 88–127 cm clear width, at least 157.3 cm clear operating height, both side panels, an open or side-hinged front, and no fixed rail, TROFAST, or drawer in the same zone.
TROFASTCompartment shelf zoneSide-runner IKEA box or organizer; needs both side panels and an open or side-hinged front. Its exact product size and Default/Rotated direction must match the live clear width, depth, and height. Several boxes stack in one gap on their own runners, no board between.
Gas-cylinder pull-outSupported compartment shelf zoneHäfele Kesseböhmer Carrier 505.72.990; at least 36.2 cm clear width and 48.5 cm clear depth, with bottom support. The panel shows mechanism fit separately from cylinder fit. The 4.8 cm platform reduces the available load height. The cylinder is not included.
Pull-down dish rackReference product; new placement blockedHäfele Lento 900 504.76.013 has conflicting source dimensions. It remains a catalog reference while its exact installation drawing is unresolved.
Free Space lift mechanismExisting compatible lift-up doorHäfele Free Space 1.11 Model F 372.27.354; requires a handle or knob and a confirmed finished-front-plus-handle weight within the range shown for that front height. One left/right set per selected door replaces the generic lift hardware.
LED stripOpen compartment or cabinet topLighting strip specification; can share some surfaces but is blocked by conflicting placement identities or unsupported category rules.
CushionOpen compartment or cabinet top3.5 cm upholstered pad; a bay placement needs an open, shelf-free first slot and a bottom panel. A top cushion spans the full cabinet width and exposes fabric-color choices.
Top surfaceEligible straight lower cabinet topFull-width cabinet surface; choose a catalog laminate or stone, thickness, and front overhang. A backsplash is not required.
BacksplashRear wall above an eligible straight lower cabinetIndependent from Top surface; it can start above the bare carcass or an existing surface. Choose its material, height, and thickness.

For a fixed rail in the bottom slot of an open-floor bay, clear height reaches the room floor and includes the removed bottom-panel thickness plus the cabinet's base or leg lift. That extra space does not apply to a Häfele lift, which still uses its raw 157.3 cm operating-height check.

The marker-based accessory list is category-aware. A guided desk, wardrobe, kitchen, or other category may intentionally expose only the items approved for that product. Top surface and Backsplash are generic cabinet-level actions gated by cabinet shape and mounting, not by a kitchen category. Convert to Free Design only when you understand the construction consequences.

Place one or several accessories

Choose the finish, fabric, color, or TROFAST variant first when the picker asks for it. Then select one or several markers in the 3D model: + is available, a check mark is selected or already installed, and ! shows a blocking reason. Choose Done to commit all selected placements as one undoable edit. Close the flow or press Escape to cancel the uncommitted selection.

Top grommets use Left, Center, or Right thirds. Top LEDs, cushions, and Top surface use the Full zone. A supported upper cabinet can hide a top marker beneath it. Backsplash does not use those markers: its editor can apply the same settings to the current cabinet or eligible connected lower cabinets.

Häfele fittings and required measurements

For Carrier 505.72.990, the placement tray and installed-item panel show read-only fit guidance, without a cylinder-height input. Mechanism fit does not verify a cylinder, regulator, or hose assembly. Existing saved measurements remain part of the fit check. New placements without verified load dimensions remain unverified and cannot pass the existing checkout validation; verified cylinder profiles are still needed before this flow is order-ready.

Lento 504.76.013 cannot currently be added as a verified fitting. The newer catalog lists W864 × D266 × H560 mm, 280 mm internal depth and upward opening; the older brochure lists W862 and conflicts with the previous app setup. These are conflicting references, not an approved 86.2–86.4 cm installation range. Existing saved placements remain visible for review and require the supplier installation drawing before production.

For Free Space 372.27.354, open the product, choose Choose a door, select the intended lift-up door, then choose Install Free Space. Installation is not applied until that final confirmation. In the door's Lift mechanism controls, enter Finished front + handle weight (kg) and choose Save. The editor shows the Model F range for the actual front height. Changes to the front's dimensions, material, or handle can require reconfirmation before checkout. If you switch cabinets, choose a compatible door in the new cabinet before confirming.

The catalog and placement tray show the change to the complete scene estimate, including hardware being replaced. Häfele prices use configurable quote defaults from manufacturer references; they are not a live supplier price feed. Review the current estimate after confirming the placement.

Top surface and independent backsplash

Top surface and Backsplash are separate. Either can exist without the other. When both exist, the backsplash begins on the upper face of the Top surface; without one, it begins at the carcass top. Each selected cabinet stores its own backsplash record. A new backsplash requires a workshop quote before production.

Saved scenes can still contain old kitchen worktops, backsplashes, appliance openings, or standalone Sink, Cooktop, and Refrigerator fixtures. They remain visible under Installed accessories for maintenance only: saved surfaces can be configured or deleted, while saved openings and fixtures can be deleted. Removing a saved opening also removes its linked cutout. These are legacy cleanup-only records; Accessories, Function, and Free Design do not create new ones.

Wardrobe lift controls

The lift’s Lower and Raise actions preview movement in 3D; they do not change the saved design. The product has a 10 kg rated load in the current specification. Its operating-height requirement includes both the stored mechanism and the clearance needed for the pull-down motion. Sliding, drop-front, lift-up, and drawer fronts are incompatible; use an open bay or a side-hinged door.

TROFAST sizes and direction

Available TROFAST choices are Compact 20 × 30 × 10 cm, Shallow 42 × 30 × 10 cm, Medium 42 × 30 × 23 cm, Large 42 × 30 × 36 cm, and Organizer tray 42 × 30 × 5 cm. Supernata adds 1 cm width, 1 cm depth, and 2 cm height for installation, plus 1.8 cm depth behind a door. Rotated swaps the product’s width and depth. The runner width uses a tight ±0.25 cm tolerance, so the bay must closely match the set-out rather than merely be larger. If it does not, the editor can offer Apply auto-fit; accepting it may release a guided cabinet into Free Design.

The Pull out and Push in actions preview TROFAST movement only. Live pricing, when available for an Indonesian project, uses the current catalog rather than a number stored in this guide.

Surface and stacking conflicts

A bay cushion needs an open compartment without adjustable shelves and requires its bottom panel. A top cushion is valid on a bare top or one full-width Top surface and blocks other additions in the same top zone. Full-width top surfaces conflict with another surface in that zone, and an upper cabinet can block an accessory that needs vertical clearance. Saved legacy marble slabs remain loadable and can be configured or deleted, but there is no new Marble bay tile.

Side-panel conflicts

Hanging hardware, a wardrobe lift, TROFAST runners, and drawers rely on side panels. Opening the left or right exterior panel can remove or block these items. Resolve the conflict deliberately instead of treating the unavailable marker as an editor error.

Edit or remove an accessory

Open Accessories → Installed, or select the accessory in 3D or from its host compartment. The selected panel shows the installed product and its relevant settings: configure a Top surface or Backsplash, choose cushion color, set TROFAST size and direction, review fit guidance, run supported previews, or delete only that accessory without removing the compartment’s other contents. It does not convert the accessory to a different product family. Choose additional products from the catalog. Free Space entries open the selected door's mechanism and weight controls.
