With a dust sheet, you need to spread it out on the floor where you are working and not scratch the tiled floor.

Have the little doors inside the cupboard got even smaller doors behind them?

22 seems have been a drill. Lets hope nr 23 is a carpentry book.
...If you had retained the skirting from the original door... It might even have matched!
Would you want to hire a handyman that asks 'how to do it on a diy site'?

Maybe being such a small job,nobody wanted to do it, i bet its only a couple of hours work for the likes of Jobandknock.
It's hard getting tradesmen to do little jobs, thats why people like Keitai pick up these jobs as people become desperate.
Is that from edge? I measure 35m from screws to edge with my kitchen units, I then added 18mm for mdf width saw it was 2mm proud which I figured was gap hence 55mm.
Exactly, but good practice for me.
Even got a joiner to cut mdf and hinge holes and get right hinges (inset ones). I think he gave me these as door is flush. I'll cut the door myself next time. I got a jig too.
It was a case of marking the centre of hinges onto wall for centre of plates with door on floor then shifting them all up 5mm so there was a 2mm gap at top

Got it but it was damaged at bottom so he didnt want it used. Maybe cut should have been more than 45 degrees too. That's the steepest cut I can do on my chop saw. Maybe also previous one was binding too
Not much after joinery costs, but good practice. Should have put longer screws in though for plates inch and half would have been better. I reckon they may come out.
So you got a joiner to show you how to do it, then you do it for a customer and charge them????
Shame the customer can't cut out the middle man (bodger, Keitia) and save money with an expert job.
Looks like the customer is on a lose-lose.
