Published

By

Docking Drawer, the leader in in-drawer outlet solutions, is set to showcase its newly configured Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) in Las Vegas this February 2025.

SAN RAMON, Calif., Jan. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Docking Drawer’s Unwavering Dedication to Safety

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality.”

When it comes to safety, no one in the industry matches the focus and innovation of Docking Drawer. Their Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages bring a unique, forward-thinking solution to an often-overlooked area in kitchen design. These safety outlets automatically de-energize an appliance garage power source when the cabinet door is closed, ensuring that appliances are safely powered off when contained inside the cabinet.

Docking Drawer is also the only company dedicated to creating in-cabinet electrical solutions that meet the strict code requirements of the Canadian marketplace. Their Safety Interlock Outlets are designed to make in-cabinet electricity compliant in Canada while offering consumers in all regions an additional layer of safety for in-cabinet power.

Advanced Limit Switch Technology

Docking Drawer’s Safety Interlock Outlets for appliance garages utilize an advanced Limit Switch system, designed to work seamlessly with power outlets concealed by a cabinet door. This intuitive feature detects when the cabinet door is closed, instantly cutting power to the connected outlet and all powered appliances.

Now Compatible with Any Appliance Garage Door

An updated Limit Switch feature now offers different switch options to accommodate all appliance garage door types, including traditional cabinet doors, pocket door setups, and more. The newly designed Limit Switch now offers two functions to choose from:

Power Off When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is ideal for traditional cabinet doors, where closing the door depresses the switch to cut power safely.Power On When Limit Switch is Depressed: This state is perfect for pocket doors, where the door being pushed back upon opening activates the switch, turning the power on.

Customizable Connectivity

The flexibility of Docking Drawer’s solutions also allows for connecting multiple limit switches to a single safety outlet or vice versa, offering customization options to adapt to the unique demands of any project.

“At Docking Drawer, we’re not just creating products; we’re setting new standards for safety and functionality,” states Scott Dickey, founder of Docking Drawer. “Our Safety Interlock Outlets represent the culmination of our dedication to innovation and empowering homeowners and professionals with safer, more organized spaces—even beyond the kitchen and bathroom.”

Join Us at KBIS 2025

Don’t miss the opportunity to experience the future of kitchen safety. Visit Docking Drawer at KBIS 2025 in Las Vegas this February to see firsthand how their Safety Interlock Outlets are revolutionizing appliance garage safety.

About Docking Drawer:

Founded in 2014, Docking Drawer offers a full array of ETL Listed electrical solutions. From our core in-drawer outlets developed specifically for use inside the drawer to our family of safety interlock outlets which add peace of mind to in-cabinet electrical setups, our products are designed to create more organized, functional and safer spaces.

His Excellency Khalid Al-Mudaifer, the Vice-Minister for Mining Affairs of Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, emphasizes that, “The meeting is an important step towards achieving sustainable development in the minerals sector globally. It is an ideal platform for delivering solutions, developing legislation on best practices in the field of sustainable mining, and exploring ways to invest in mining projects to achieve economic and social development in producing countries.”

Importantly, the outcomes of the Ministerial Roundtable are not confined to the event itself but form an ongoing, year-round program. Regional Coordination Groups will continue to drive the implementation of key initiatives.

“FMF is emerging as the largest global hub for minerals collaboration and action – no other platform brings together government ministers and senior industry leaders at this scale.” Al-Mudaifer concluded.
