I have only ever installed standard carcasses with individual doors???
I think this is the norm?
B & Q - By far the better quality, more precise and robust, like I said 18mm chipboard drawer bases and steel sides integrated runners.
Also, cos you collect them yourself, they are not damaged in transit, and you don't get a corner base unit when you order a 300mm wall unit...
Also, I've had side/top panels with the melamine half sanded off with MFI stuff. and (only one) that i rejected due to the innaccuracies of the machining cam holes and dowel holes 5 mm off line!
Luckily I had enough bits left over from the spare units (the customer had missmeasured )
Also, the kitchen designer hadn't allowed room for the corner post, so I had to omit this and adjust the opposing drawer front... Not the way I like to do things, but needs must etc.
One of customers has a huuuuuuuge kitchen, fully fitted hand made bespoke units. One word. Class.
And no more expensive I would think than an MFI B&Q type.
If I had the budget (and no ability ) I would look into this aswell and not dismiss it out of hand.
Enough typing..... ZZZzzzzzzzz
