How can I neutralize warm white cabinets?
Comments (20)Nice! I like Groningen, have some great friends from there. I bought my kitchen from keuken kampioen. So I don't give it a bad name. . . since my original post, customer service has really gone out of their way to see if there is something they could do. The cabinet shape I chose is in the example on the front page. Of course mine are magnolia and not white. You can see what the magnolia color looks like by typing in magnolia in the search bar to see other kitchens displayed in that color, though in a different shape than I chose. https://www.keukenkampioen.nl/keukencollecties/keuken/steinhaus-riesling/...See MoreKitchen cabinets floor to ceiling
Comments (6)Here’s mine. It’s Dove Grey handleless and I love it. Clean and sleek. On the left hand side is the tall larder unit (how did I manage without one, it holds soooo much stuff), then the middle 2 units protrude slightly (doesn’t really show too well in the photo) and they have a fridge over a freezer, then a dryer over a washer and then there’s the double oven and integrated microwave. Spare cupboard space over the top of 3 units....See MorePlanning alcove cabinets, but curtains will be in the way
Comments (6)Thanks At no 9. I hadn't considered putting the curtains on the right. That's a possibility. Sarah U-S - I'm planning to put books and "bits and pieces" on the shelves, then the TV would sit on the cabinet. Planning to pop all the clutter into the cabinet so it's out of sight! I agree, I think the shelves will look ok if they're not as deep as the alcoves, but the cabinet might look a bit odd. Maybe a freestanding piece of furniture would look better. Thanks for the ideas!...See MoreIs it possible to install a dishwasher into an existing cabinet?
Comments (23)Hi A kitchen fitter will be able to do this for you, Howdens may be able to advise you of one or have a look on the ikbbi website and ring round. It'll be a bit fiddly but not impossible to do and assuming that the cabinet to the right of the drawers is not an integrated appliance, if it is then its not possible as you'd need a support panel for the worktop and you don't have the room. I'd suggest an integrated dishwasher but what ever you chose make sure that it can pump the waste water to about 3m away and don't get one with an anti flood device as these are supposed to be fitted vertically and you won't be able to do this, get a long 1.8-2.4m washing machine water feed hose and about 2-3m of washing machine waste hose, connectors and jubilee clips (the connectors may have a reverse thread on them and I used to use plenty of silicon and jubilee clips when i used to make extended waste hoses when i was fitting) avoid the thin flexible concertina extending hoses as these can split. All these available from a plumbers merchant or your kitchen fitter will get/have them. First remove the plinth then the drawer unit will have to come out, this should have slip brackets fixing the worktop down as it looks like wooden tops, wind the legs in and then the fiddly bit may be the unit also been bracketed to the wall so a bit of brute force may be required to remove. keep the drawer fronts for later. The kitchen fitter will then get the dishwasher ready, change the cold fill hose for the longer one (can't do this if the hose has the anti flood though, you'd have just extend it which is bit crap) and extend the waste hose and feed the hoses in the plinth space under the units, slide the dishwasher into place, pull the longer hoses round and feed them into the sink cupboard and connect them to the waste via a spigot (may need to change your waste for a twin spigot waste kit) and if you have a washing machine valve for your washing machine use a brass splitter (plastic ones can break) or he might have to fit an extra valve. For the power he might have to run an extension and plug in under the plinth if there isn't a socket in an adjoining unit. For the integrated facia you can use the 2 drawer fronts you have already, bit fiddly but can be done, check for any leaks and do a wash cycle, then refit the plinth. Easily done in a day for a half decent kitchen fitter or for a competant diy'er and not complicated, the plumbing will all run under the units so no need to disturb any other units apart from the sink unit for the connections, probably the hardest bit might be getting the power there....See MoreKristin Petro Interiors, Inc.
