The Blum AVENTOS HK-XS 20K4101 front-fixing bracket securely connects an HK-XS lift mechanism to a wooden front or wide aluminium-frame front. This genuine nickel-plated steel bracket uses screw-on installation and forms the front-side connection in a correctly planned AVENTOS HK-XS stay-lift application.

This is the front bracket, not the cabinet fixing. The bracket is fitted to the moving door front, while a separate cabinet fixing secures the lift mechanism to the cabinet side. For screw-on cabinet installation, use the compatible Blum AVENTOS HK-XS 20K5101 cabinet fixing.

Correct front connection for HK-XS
AVENTOS HK-XS is Blum’s compact stay-lift system for single-piece fronts. The 20K4101 provides the screw-on connection between the selected HK-XS mechanism and the front. Its application is specifically wooden fronts and wide aluminium frames.

Do not use this part as a generic bracket for every front construction. Blum specifies the separate 20K4101A screw-on bracket for narrow aluminium frames. For wooden fronts requiring tool-free EXPANDO fixing rather than screw-on fixing, Blum lists 20K41E1. Match the bracket to the front material, frame profile and approved fixing method.

Screw-on fixing
For a wooden front, Blum’s catalogue specifies two 609.1x00 chipboard screws per bracket. For a wide aluminium-frame front, it specifies two 660.0950 countersunk self-tapping screws per bracket. Fixing screws are not confirmed as included with this bracket and must be sourced separately — confirm the existing product record and physical pack before ordering.

Use current Blum drilling positions and assembly instructions. Accurate marking and secure fixing are essential because the bracket transfers movement between the lift mechanism and the front.

Product details

What else is required?
This bracket is one component of an AVENTOS HK-XS application. A complete installation also needs a correctly selected HK-XS lift mechanism, the appropriate cabinet fixing, compatible hinges and mounting plates, and the specified front fixings. Handleless TIP-ON applications additionally require the correct TIP-ON components and compatible unsprung hinges.

Choose the lift mechanism from the front’s calculated power factor and use the relevant standard or TIP-ON configuration. This bracket does not determine lifting strength, add soft close or provide push-to-open operation — those characteristics depend on the complete HK-XS system and selected components.

Installation guidance

1. Confirm that the front is wooden or a wide aluminium-frame construction.
2. Confirm that screw-on front fixing is suitable for the application.
3. Select the correct HK-XS lift mechanism and separate cabinet fixing.
4. Mark and drill the front only to current Blum planning dimensions.
5. Use the specified fixings for the front construction.
6. Assemble and adjust the complete system following Blum instructions.
7. Check secure engagement, alignment, opening clearance and front movement before use.

Frequently asked questions

What does the 20K4101 bracket attach to?
It is fitted to the moving cabinet front and connects that front to the AVENTOS HK-XS lift mechanism. It is not the bracket that mounts the mechanism to the cabinet side.

Which cabinet fixing works with a screw-on HK-XS installation?
Blum 20K5101 is the separate screw-on cabinet fixing. Check the full application against current Blum planning information before ordering or drilling.

Can 20K4101 be used with an aluminium frame?
Yes, Blum specifies 20K4101 for wide aluminium frames as well as wooden fronts. Narrow aluminium frames require the separate 20K4101A bracket.

Is this the EXPANDO front bracket?
No. The 20K4101 is the screw-on version. Blum lists 20K41E1 as the EXPANDO front-fixing bracket for suitable wooden fronts.

Are screws included?
Fixing screws are not confirmed as included with this bracket and must be sourced separately. Blum specifies two 609.1x00 chipboard screws per bracket for wooden fronts, or two 660.0950 countersunk self-tapping screws per bracket for wide aluminium frames.

Does this bracket provide BLUMOTION or TIP-ON?
No. It is a mechanical connection between the front and lift mechanism. Closing or push-to-open behaviour comes from the selected system configuration and its other compatible components.
