I wouldn't say they're meant for spices. I have an 800 drawer pack under my hob. The top drawer has a collection of utensils in it, namely knives, forks, teaspoons, long latte coffee spoons, pastry cutters, carving knife/bread knife/carving fork altogether in one section, tin opener, wooden spoons, scissors, ladle to name but a few. If you want somewhere to store spices a 150mm base unit with a chrome inset would have been perfect for this.

We went for drawers in our French home and find them so much more accessible than cupboards. Also, you never "lose" stuff at the back, like I do with cupboards. You can have drawers within drawers, to give a clean, uniform look of just two doors deep all round, whilst having the convenience of shallow drawers for smaller items. Plan carefully about what you want to store and where that needs to be relative to your oven, hob, sink, etc. The drawer sliders are very strong, so wide drawers are not a problem. Under the sink we have a deep drawer that holds waste bins, this is opened with a foot pedal! Genius when you have messy hands from cleaning and filleting fish! (or any other food prep) Don't bother with plate dividers in the drawers, the plates sit in stacks and do not move about. Dividers just waste your space. We kept a couple of cupboards for tall things such as cereal boxes. The attached photo is pre tiling & decorating and I don't have any showing drawer interiors. Sadly we will not be back there until late March. We love the drawers kitchen in France so much that we will be renewing our UK kitchen to all drawers soon.

Thank you so much for replying quickly... will really appreciate a couple more pointers plz .. do you think there is a way to find an equivalent new clip and do a DIY reinstall of the clip? Re: a L shaped bracket.. the side of the drawer box seems to be metal so will i be able to screw it there or I have to install the L shaped bracket to bottom of drawer box which is wood and then connect that way... if possible, will be great to get a recommendation too (not sure if you can share a screwfix website link) Or should I send better photos to help ?

The door handle is in the same position as yours, in the upper centre of the door. There is no room for door hinges, but even if there was room I still want the door to pull out like a drawer rather than swing open so that there is immediate access to the contents of the attached drawer. I know it would have to be the bottom drawer. If you have any suggestions as to the best way to attach it that would be great.
