    150mm space between kitchen units

    I had to reverse doors for practicality, to reverse again is no option really I think have 2 choices, either bring f/f a bit closer to larder and put a tall filler or a pull out storage cabinet positioned 2" or so back. Any other I can do?

    150mm space between kitchen units

    I had to double check, there is an issue with f/f doors, when opened go about 2" onto the left into the space. Any suitable units? Or Would a pull out storage rack fitted 2" back to accommodate f/f doors look bad??

    The nut attached to main drainer is smaller than the compression nuts of 1 1/2", also pipes are slightly smaller (40mm) than the standard 1 1/2 " pipes (42mm). Will this T5M fit?

    Fitting kitchen unit drawer

    Thank you @RandomGrinch for the vids and @foxhole for the replies. The drawers are all assembled and perfect but not fitted yet as I think not enough screws supplied, which is unlike Blum?! Both Pan drawerboxes and standard drawbox came with 4 runner screws, whether 2 per runner is enough?
