What size of filler pieces do I need in my kitchen?
Since all kitchens are unique, you cut your own piece from a cover panel to match the door or space you want to cover. We always recommend a space of at least 50 mm between the wall and the cabinet, which you can cover with a fitting piece, so that you can open drawers and doors without any problems.
As the wall can sometimes be crooked, it is extra important to have a gap between the wall and the cabinet to ensure that everything can be opened smoothly and without anything touching.
If you have something else on the wall in front of the kitchen, such as a radiator or a low window sill, the filler piece needs to be as wide as the protruding object + a few extra centimeters, in order for the drawers to be able to go past the obstacle.
Our fridges/freezers require a filler piece of at least 50 mm against the wall so that you can pull out the interior without any problems.
