FAQs

What are the exact dimensions of this base cabinet?

This is a 400mm wide drawerline base cabinet. Please refer to the product specifications for exact height and depth measurements.

Are door handles included with the cabinet?

No, door handles, plinths, and other accessories are sold separately. You can choose handles that match your kitchen's style.

Can the door be hinged on the opposite side?

Yes, the doors are designed to be hinged on either the left or right side to suit your kitchen layout.

How is the cabinet assembled?

The cabinet features a quick-build system using cam and dowel fixings for fast and strong assembly.

What is the benefit of the rear service void?

The 49mm rear service void provides a dedicated space to discreetly run pipes or electrical wiring behind the cabinet, keeping your kitchen tidy.

Can I install this cabinet on a sloped floor?

Yes, the 150mm adjustable legs allow you to level the cabinet accurately on uneven or sloped floors.

What is the material of the cabinet?

The cabinet is constructed from robust 18mm MFC (Melamine Faced Chipboard) with an 8mm back panel for strength and durability.

Troubleshooting

Cabinet door not closing properly or rubbing

Adjust the hinges. Most hinges have adjustment screws to move the door up, down, left, or right. Ensure the cabinet itself is perfectly level using the adjustable legs.

Cabinet feels unstable or wobbly

Ensure all cam and dowel fixings are fully tightened. Check that the adjustable legs are correctly seated and adjusted to make firm contact with the floor. Use a spirit level to ensure the cabinet is plumb.

Missing components during assembly

Double-check the packaging. If components are genuinely missing, contact the retailer or Kitchen Kit customer support with your product details and the specific part number needed.

Soft-close mechanism not working effectively

Ensure the door is correctly aligned and not catching on anything. The soft-close mechanism can be less effective if the door is not closing squarely. Check that the hinges are properly installed and engaged.
