Secureiam, thanks for your comprehensive response, your expertise really helped. I'll check the installation of the pet friendly PIR sensors.

I have a Texecom Premier Elite 64-W with wireless Ricochet sensors which I've been working on installing. There are a few things that I'm not sure about in terms of the set-up and which I hope the more experienced amongst you might be good enough to help me with please. Thank you. 1. When I...

Thanks opps, I might try this too.

Thank you oldbutnotdead, I'll take a look at the grout finishers. I've been using a Fugi tool, but it is also too big to fit in this last gap. I spoke to the worktop fitters who were really helpful, but ultimately they were concerned that when removing the worktop, there would be a small chance...

After the help and advice which you all kindly provided me with here, I've now managed to get to the point where I've almost finished filling the gaps between the worktop and units as I hope that you can see from the photos. The problem now is that I don't have a smoothing tool which is small...

Thanks so much oldbutnotdead. I'm going to check the levels of the floor and worktops now. I've just contacted the original fitter, so I don't know what he's going to say yet. I wanted to find out what I might be dealing with first, which you and everyone else who has responded has helped me to...

Thanks once again opps and oldbutnotdead and everyone else who has responded. I've checked and a sharp knife goes through the adhesive easily, which hopefully means that it's silicone. The floor is level as it was a self-levelling screed and I had a floor laid over it with no issues. This...

I'm not at home at the moment opps, but when I get back this afternoon, I'll push a knife into the adhesive and take some pictures of the kitchen which I'll post. I was wondering if we could adjust the legs to drop the units to the height of the end panels and then have the worktops refitted...

Thank you all for replying. Do any of you know if it would be possible to level the units if we remove the worktops? If it is, then I'll ask the worktop company to remove the worktops and I'll get the units levelled. Will I I am fairly sure that will be the answer I receive!

Thank you all for replying. Do any of you know if it would be possible to level the units if we remove the worktops? If it is, then I'll ask the worktop company to remove the worktops and I'll get the units levelled. Will I need new end panels, or could we just drop the unit heights?

Haha, I'm going to add a cricket bat to my Christmas list!

Thanks opps, I will take your advice and do that

Thanks mrgobby, you're right, the base units were installed by a different person to the worktop company

JohnD thanks, I thought as much. The worktop isn't warped, so in your view is this an issue with the cabinets not being level? I'm going to ask the worktop installers today about the glue they used.

We had our kitchen fitted last week and the worktop installed a couple of days ago. The worktop doesn't sit flush with the top of the base cabinets, leaving a quite visible gap between the two where there are blobs of adhesive. Because we have a kitchen which is open to the living area, when...

JohnD, that's helpful to know, thanks. Do you know if its age makes it less likely to warp in the future as it's not warped now?

We're getting to the end of our renovation and are somewhat broken, hence we're reaching out to you wise, good people to save us from possible disaster! We're replacing our front door and have found a reclaimed solid door, possibly meranti, which we would have to strip and repaint. I know that...

Thanks RichA, the door fronts we know we can do. It’s the drawers themselves and installing the bin unit we’re unsure about.

We have to find a kitchen and unfortunately the guy who was going to make the units has had to stop work for a while due to a bereavement. This has left us short of time and options. We've now been thinking about using Ikea units with bespoke doors. There are a couple of things I hope that those...

Thanks Andy, I was struggling to upload, I think I've managed it. I'm clearly still traumatised from wobbling around on the scaffold!
