The secrets behind our best-in-class kitchen installation experience.
Electrolux Group Kitchen Design Projects
A global team of experts creating innovative and intuitive design experiences that shape living for the better.
Through years of product development and working closely with our business customers, Electrolux Group strives to offer an installation process for our kitchen appliances that is valued equally by both our trade partners and the professional installers of our innovative products.
By developing a range of unique installation solutions that are exclusive to our products, and which offer simple and efficient implementation but still deliver the most professional results for any kitchen design, we have established a reputation as leaders in the built-in installation industry.
A key component in this best-in-class installation experience is our unique PerfectFit installation method, which provides a smooth and simple process every time, ultimately saving both time and money.
Made to fit any kitchen, the PerfectFit range of appliances allow for quick, easy and accurate installations, reducing the number of steps required by up to 30% compared to the equivalent products from our competitors. A real advantage for both our trade customers and professional installers.
This includes our PerfectFit hobs, which do not require front or rear ventilation, thus making them ideal for worktops as thin as 12mm. A pre-installed cable helps simplify installation, which takes just four steps in total, with the hobs self-centering via spring fixation. They fit seamlessly into the worktop, thanks to Optifix sealant and pre-attached fixing springs.
Similar advantages are found in our latest range of PerfectFit eXTractor hobs, which take just 30 steps to complete the entire process, thanks to our unique installation method. That's 65% less installation steps than our previous hobs – and less time means less costs. Key factors to consider for installers of our products.
Our PerfectFit refrigerators and freezers offer the fastest door-on-door and sliding door installation in the market, with ready-made templates that remove the need for measuring, therefore offering the greatest degree of simplicity when installing.
Meanwhile, our PerfectFit dishwashers have flexible sliding hinges that will adapt to any door or plinth, enabling a patented seamless integration into any kitchen and eliminating the need to cut the plinth or make other costly furniture adjustments. So it means one-size-fits-all niche heights.
But that’s not all. Thanks to optional side snappers and spring fixation, tool-free installation is available for Electrolux and AEG PerfectFit ovens and hobs, while our hoods (up to 90cm) can be installed by just one person thanks to the innovative hood snapper, compared to the 2-person job required for competitor hoods.
All other PerfectFit appliances require just a single Torx T20 screwdriver to complete installation. It really could not be any simpler.
Frank Benold, a Built-In Kitchen Specialist for BA Europe who has been working with built-in installation for over 20 years, said:
“We know that Electrolux Group customers will always be satisfied with the design alignment, quality, and efficiency of how our appliances are installed. In the replacement market, our appliances fit in anywhere perfectly because we have thought through all the possible scenarios and developed solutions that match their needs.”
These needs include the ability to call on essential information that supports the install process, 24 hours a day, 7 days per week, without needing to reference multiple guides or instruction booklets.
This led to the creation of the Electrolux Installer App, a 'first to market', that gives any user the ability to quickly access all of our products' technical specifications and installation instructions, directly from their smartphone.
By simply scanning the appliance’s barcode, or searching within the app’s extensive catalogue, the installer gets access to installation manuals and diagrams, as well as detailed videos that walk them through the process.
The app also provides direct links to relevant accessories, the spare parts webshop and further assistance from the Support tab, which includes all customer care details.
Available across Europe in 26 languages, the free Electrolux Installer app is an essential tool for discovering the correct and fastest way of installing both Electrolux & AEG appliances.
