Why do all my drawer fronts have a difference of about 1 cm?
If your drawer fronts overlap, it may be because the rails or fittings that attach the drawer front are not mounted correctly. Check that the rails are in the correct holes and that the screws for the bottom drawer front fittings are positioned as directed.
Use the assembly instructions to check that the rails are mounted in the correct holes in the base cabinet according to where you want the drawer to be placed and whether it has a visible front or is a hidden drawer. The wrong hole gives the wrong height and can cause the overlap.
