Platform on new construction, renovation, restoration and transformation
Veteka's Design Project Meter Cabinet allows a complete meter cabinet wall to be built quickly and aesthetically by simply - and virtually seamlessly - connecting the cabinet frames together. The Design Project Meterkast has an extra sleek design, saves time and materials through fast assembly and is available in various colors and decors. This makes the Design Project Meter Cabinet particularly suitable for use in entrance halls or galleries in high-rise buildings. All the more so because this new meter cupboard is also available as a system with a Euroclass B certificate.
"Prefab and modular construction are important developments within the construction sector. As a supplier of (wood) products to the construction industry, it is important to respond to this," stated Bas Kemps Director of Veteka. "With the Design Project Meter Cabinet, we meet the market needs of construction companies and architects who are looking for modern meter cabinets that can be assembled easily and quickly." Veteka's Design Project Meter Cabinet is a prefabricated system consisting of an MDF frame (frame), a top panel and a door leaf. The cabinets are easy to connect together and endlessly expand both in height and width. Thanks to pre-assembled hinges, the meter cupboard doors are easy to click into the frame. So click-and-ready without the need for a screwdriver. All this saves time and money.
The cabinets can be coupled together almost seamlessly. The clearance between the linked cabinets has been reduced to a minimum of 6 mm everywhere thanks to a higher precision finish. This looks so modern, Mr. Kemps said and continued: "The customer can also choose from a wide palette of colors and decors, so that every meter cupboard project can be customized to their own needs. customize is. Especially when meter boxes are located in the central areas of a building - such as in the entrance hall or an elevator portal - you want an aesthetic solution. In addition to the wide choice of colors and decors, desired adjustments such as door height, width, ventilation space and hardware are a matter of course with Veteka. This allows an architect to be particularly creative and flexible with the space.
With the Design Project Meter Cabinet, Veteka is also responding to the growing demand for fire-safe products in the construction industry. This new meter cupboard from Veteka distinguishes itself from other meter cupboards because the entire composite product (frame and door leaves of fire-retardant melamine-covered chipboard) complies with Euroclass B*. Veteka had this system officially tested by Peutz, Laboratory for Fire Safety, and certified with a Euroclass B certificate. Currently, so-called fire-safe meter cabinets are already offered in the market, but it should be noted that individual components are tested for fire behavior, but not the meter cabinet as a whole. This makes the Design Project Meterkast 'FireProtect' variant the first meter cupboard system on the Dutch market that fully complies with Euroclass B and has obtained an official classification report. In summary, Veteka's new Design Project Meterkast combines the requirements of the NEN standard 2768 (NEN 2768+A2:2022) with fire safety, quick assembly and a sleek, uniform appearance.
