Auszug

German to English Tech/Engineering Furniture / Household Appliances bathroom catalogue
2 Glasböden, verspiegelte Rückwand (oben), 1 hoher Auszug.
THis is a bathroom catalogue, with just single words mainly. Does anyone have any ideas on Auszug-could it be a pull-out drawer? Thanks
Proposed translations (English)
3 +2 pull-out
3 drawer

Don't know what you'd call it in English, but this is what it looks like: http://www.amazon.de/schrankauszug-Küche-Haushalt; good luck!

oder pull-out drawer.


Auszug: anstelle von Türen, um den Zugriff auf Gegenstände weiter hinten im Schrank zu erleichtern.

Ein Auszug ist einer Schublade von der Funktion her sehr ähnlich, hat aber nur sehr niedrige Seiten, während die Schublade an den Seiten nur geringfügig niedriger ist als die Verkleidung an der Stirn.

thank you!
Peer comment(s):

agree David Moore (X) : Best to avoid the "drawer" - it's perhaps a "pull-out surface".

Thank you.
agree Julia Graham (X) : If they meant drawer they would say drawer (Schublade). In technical catalogues I have seen this as pull-out.

neutral Cilian O'Tuama : would they say Auszug if they meant Schublade?

disagree David Moore (X) : Take care with previous ProZ glossary entries - they're not necessarily correct. I don't like this one either...a drawer normally has sides, an "Auszug" is normally flat.
