Kitchen update

Finally, the kitchen unit is in!


I fitted the push-lock handles to the ikea unit doors and they work perfectly.


The handles needed pretty accurate measuring/re-measuring to ensure the lock bit met up with the catch on the cupboard inside. One didn't meet well enough to stop the door from swinging open when cornering. This was easily remedied by building up the height of the catch with washers.


I'm pleased with how the unit looks now you can't see any of the white hardboard.
happy days!

  1. It's unfortunate that here in the states, one cannot purchase the two main items wanted/needed for a minivan to camper conversion - a rock and roll bed and an SMEV kitchen unit.
