Buying Guide & FAQ's

Our buying guide and frequently asked questions below, will help you to complete your order and answer any questions about how to purchase our products:

 

How do I measure my doors?

  • Using the back of the door (as it will be completely flat), measure (in millimetres).
  • Measure from top to bottom (for the Height)
  • Then the distance from left to right (for the Width).
  • Its essential to measure your door rather than your unit that the door will go onto, this is because doors are always a few mm smaller than the unit.
  • See ‘Why is my door smaller than my carcass/unit'

 

How do I measure my hinge holes?

  • Measure from the Top or Bottom of the door to the centre of the related hinge hole in millimetres. 
  • If You are having a Top hung door, you will need to measure from Left to Right.
  • We offer a 'Hinge Hole' drilling service for your convenience as well as precision, which corresponds with standard Hinges (allow additional day for this service).
  • Hinge hole drilling is 35mm x 13mm deep at only £2 per door -(Available in product options)

 How to Measure For Hinge Holes

 

 

How do I see which way my door is hung?

 

  • The best way to find out the orientation is to imagine the door is closed on the unit.
  • Whichever side the hinges are on (whilst you are facing the door) is the side it is hung from.

J Pull Handle less Design – Important Info

J Pull Design

 

  • If you have chosen a Handleless ‘J- Pull’ Style door :

 

You will need to choose if your J-Pull is for a Wall or Base unit.

 

If it’s a BASE UNIT DOOR – the J Profile shown above, will be at the top of the door in the correct position to pull the door open.

 

BASE UNIT - J Pull orientation TOP

 WALL UNIT- J pull Orientation BOTTOM

If it’s a WALL UNIT DOOR the J profile will be at the bottom of the door – again for the correct position to open the door.

On the website it will look like this :

Why is my door slightly smaller than my carcass/unit?

This is for a reason* See Diagram Below:

 

  • Each door will be 2 mm smaller either side for door clearance.

 

  • The door is slightly smaller to allow for opening clearance, so the doors don't make contact when opening or closing.

 

  • (Although you can slightly adjust the hinges to adjust any uneven gaps) still allowing a few millimetres for clearance.

Why can't I find my end panel size?

 

  • End Panels are purposely made over sized so that they can be cut down to suit your specific kitchen.
  • You should order the Panel or Panel(s) which would accommodate your size, and cut them down to your exact size
  • You can also purchase edging tape specifically for making good any cut edges that may be on view.
