More Kitchen woes

[zad3717]

Hello again,

So got my head round the worktops thanks for the help, next stumbling block that neither of us or the designer picked up on is that if we go central with the hob and go bigger i.e. 900mm then the dresser door 600mm won't be able to open

So is there a way of doing a bi-fold door? I have emailed a couple of companies about the tambour doors but they all tend to be in a metal colour we want white to match the slab.

Other alternative is double doors? not ideal though

Thanks again

see where the hood is the door to the left ours will open but hit the hood so looking for ideas on what to do, that dresser was to house our little used microwave.

Get a 700mm extractor instead

Not an option as the gap using a 900mm one is 400mm so the 100mm would still mean the door won't open.

I think we might go for a bi-fold option or even 2 300mm doors at worst case.

If it were me, I would go back to the designer and say what you gonna do about this "at no cost to me".

You could cut the door in half so it bi folds but it will not be a good finish and you would have to use a piano hinge to join the two halves.

Alternatively you could introduce a purpose made filler at the height of the extractor and have shorter full doors above and below the filler.
