Never cut sockets out back of kitchen unit ?

[diycooper]

I have installed my kitchen base units but forgot to cut the backs out for where the sockets are benhind. What is the best way to cut out the units now they are fitted to get the tidyest cut possible now. The back are just 6 backerboard not the 18mm thick chipboard ?


thanks

bosch 180e is a cheaper alternative
you can also get the cheaper argos versions and the lidle and aldy versions as well

If you don't what to purchase more tools cut a piece of ply to size of sockets and position over the socket location, screw and glue to back board, then run a drill bit around the ply template using it as a guide, if you are careful it should leave a neat hole.
