What’s so Great about Excedra Gravity?
At Direct Supply, we are self-proclaimed hardware nerds. We've been helping professionals bring their best projects to life since 1989, and we don't get excited about just any hardware, but Excedra Gravity has us impressed. Hands down, the Exedra Gravity is one of the best cabinet pocket door systems available today, and we're proud to distribute it to our customers across the U.S.
What Makes a Pocket Door System, and Why Excedra Gravity Does.
A pocket door system lets a cabinet door open and then slide fully back into a hidden compartment beside the cabinet interior, no swinging door blocking the space, no obstruction while you reach inside. It's the go-to solution for appliance garages, entertainment centers, home offices, pantries, wet bars, and any application where a door needs to disappear when it's open. With a growing number of countertop and kitchen appliances in a space, it’s also being incorporated more frequently to hide away everyday kitchen items.
What sets the Exedra Gravity apart is how it achieves that motion. Salice engineered this system to work without cables, tie rods, or springs. Instead, it relies on a refined mechanism and magnetic dampers to control movement, fewer parts to fail, a cleaner installation, and a smoothness of operation that has to be felt to be believed. The entire mechanism is concealed within a slim 55mm housing, so nothing distracts from the finished look.
Motion That Feels Like Magic (In Both Directions)
Gravity OUT - Push-to-open, right out of the pocket. With a light touch, the door extracts itself from the cabinet compartment with assisted motion no handles required, no wrestling a recessed door back into position. It simply glides out to meet you.
Gravity IN - Soft close, all the way into the pocket. When you're ready to tuck the door away, a gentle push sends it retracting with a smooth, perfectly balanced motion, and a magnetic buffer eases it softly into place. No slam, no bounce-back, just a quiet, controlled finish every single time.
The system also pairs with two hinge options:
- Smove hinges deliver Salice's celebrated integrated soft-close, decelerating the door
- for that signature gentle, cushioned closing action.
- Push hinges enable handleless doors with a push-to-open action ideal for the clean,
- minimalist designs that define modern cabinetry.
- Hinges are available in Nickel or Titanium finish

Quality That's on Par With Custom Cabinetry
This is the Pinterest feature your client wants and will likely be drawn to open first. Using a smooth-functioning pocket door kit will match your custom cabinet craftsmanship. So much of what makes cabinetry feel custom isn't the box; it's the motion, the fit, and the finish details your client interacts with every day.
The Exedra Gravity delivers a level of refinement that stands shoulder to shoulder with the finest custom work. The travel is effortless. The close is quiet and consistent. The door moves cleanly and reappears with a light touch. For high-end kitchens, luxury media walls, executive offices, or premium retail fixtures, this system helps you deliver results that are on par with your finished cabinetry.
