door 597mm wide?

[simbob]

I'm fitting a1000mm base unit as a straight corner unit as per the instructions in the box (B&Q, Caraway, no expense spared or even gone to).

The configuration for the blanking panel and corner post mean that the door width will be 597mm

B&Q do not make a door at that width. Their official advice was yes, we don't make doors of that width, so ask the store staff for advice ( )
Replacement door suppliers seem to be working with 18mm boards whereas these units are designed with 16mm doors.

I don't think my router skills are advnaced enough to remove 3mm from a standard 600mm door without a wobble. Just curious to know how others would approach this.

Can you give us a photo please? Often the best way to get suggestions.

Unit doors are never the same width as the cabinets. They are always smaller, 595mm to 597mm for a 600 gap. You should be able to lose or gain a small amount on a corner to accomodate the door if needed.
