Hi, I'm new to this webpage and after some advice. I'm fitting the kitchen units myself and noticed the wickes designer isnt the most helpful. I have a 25mm gap and a 35mm gap either side of the middle cabinet on the plan. Can I not lose this at the ends as both are corners.... with a bigger corner post or filler? I've attached picture to help with problem. Any help would be great.

Sure, it's the bottom wall where the issue is. Probably easily solved for someone who knows what there doing lol

That’s not a gap, they must be allowing for a packer fillet or something

quite often they use end panels to create a dummy face frame look - recently did a Howdens with those
 
Thanks foxhole, I thought would be best idea. Just seems odd having different size gaps either side. The corners are magic mesh but have blanking panels but I guess I use a dec base panel to fill the extra gap to corner post?

Free shop designers just want to fit as many units as possible into kitchen design , they have little interest in what it will look like.
