Howdens kitchen plinth (moved)

[Lynda Raftery]

Hi,
We’re fitting a new Howdens kitchen and are at the stage of having our floor tiled.
I would like a full tile to start at the plinth, so the plinth will sit on the grout line. However, the units have not yet been delivered so we dont have any measurements.
Can anyone tell me how far back the plinth sits on the base unit (not including the door) please?
Many thanks,

You can ask Howdens for their kitchen fitting manual that has all measurements. Either way, I will measure our cabinets when I get home and post for you.

Thank you Chris!

Is that wise? Any errors in the line of grout will be more obvious rather than if the plinth sat on the approximate middle of the tile. You may also find the sealing will be difficult.

30mm (standard Howden's plinth clips and our plinth is 16mm).

Thank you. We decided to do it half way on tile in the end just in case it was out slightly!

Tile layout should never be dictated by a cup'd line.

your walls are probably not straight and square, so the cabs will have to jiggle around. You won't get the plinth to line up.
