Magnet Trade

In 2022 Magnet Kitchens started a journey. How to improve their cabinetry not only for end customers but also for their installers. Their ambition and goal to save Magnet Trade installers time.

They looked at every component, including how their kitchen base units where attached to the wall. Like everyone they disliked the fiddly angle brackets. Their Product Manager, Matthew Jones and Head of Product, Cath Harrison agreed there has to be a better way. This is the moment that Matthew discovered Space-Plug and the award winning Adjustable Spacer Fixings. 

The process of changing their cabinetry evolved over the coming months and in September 2023, Magnet Trade launched their new cabinets. Their new kitchen base units save 20% on fitting time. Space-Plug are very proud to be only wall fixing component for their base units - and contribute to this impressive save on fitting time. 

The parent company Nobia, a giant in the kitchen industry in the UK and across Europe, where also introduced to Space-Plugs in a presentation of the all innovations being rolled out in the new cab designs. 

Kristoffer Ljungfelt, Executive Vice President of Nobia met with Space-Plug founder Cliff Petit after learning about this amazing award winning adjustable wall fixing. 

“I have literally seen thousands of new inventions for the kitchen industry, but the Adjustable Spacer Fixing is amazing. Such a simple solution to an age-old problem. This invention really is one of the best kitchen inventions I have ever seen, our ambition at Nobia is to simplify the installation process for our customers, yet continue to build superior cabinets. The fixing Cliff has invented will be around for a very, very long time and Magnet installers will benefit!”


 

 

Magnet Trade supply and include the Space-Plug adjustable spacer fixing with all kitchen base cabinets.

They have earned the right to use our badge of honour for supplying our fixing 'In The Box'.

In September 2023 Magnet launched the new cabinets via their 180 trade and showroom stores.

To support the launch, Space-Plug provided each store with packs of adjustable spacer fixings, sweeties, toolbox stickers and posters and leaflets to highlight the Space-Plug adjustable spacer fixing is supplied as the main fixing component and how to use in 4 simple steps.  
"At Magnet we did a significant survey and amount of research to understand the issues within the installation process and how we can improve this! We listened to the feedback and went to work! High on the list was improving our offering on base cabinet wall fixings. We couldn't believe our luck when we came across Space-Plug, “Adjustable Spacer Fixings”. From the very beginning myself and the product development team at Magnet knew that we had to include them. Our brief, to create cabinets that were 20% faster to install and this genius fixing has really helped achieve that target whilst removing the difficulty of adding L brackets to cabinets. My personal thanks to Cliff, the inventor and owner of Space-Plug. He and his team did a great job with supporting us launch the new cabinet across our 180 Magnet Trade Stores. A success of a project and already delighted with the feedback! Our thanks to Space-Plug!"
