595 is a standard size for a 600 door, there are lots of door manufacturers who do made to measur doors. Trade mouldings, TKC, east coast fittings, PWS to name a few. Most of them you will need an account .

Good luck

Like prem says, 595 is a standard width for a 600 unit - if it's the height, I don't know.
One day it will all be firewood.

a friend of mine asked me to pop by and price up fitting new doors to his kitchen. as soon as i saw the wall units i told him they wernt standard sized. they were well odd sizes iirc.

in the end he got a company to come and make new doors for a very good price. something like £300 where id had to say £600 ish for replacement units and doors, handles and my labour would have been on top of that.

Many of the major kitchen door manufacturers also supply non-standard sizes. However, most of the people selling doors via the internet don't make the non-standard sizes available via their website as it's much easier to handle standard sizes via e-commerce. However, you'll find that if you contact them they are usually able to supply the sizes you want. Usually you pay for the next size up "normal" door plus a small premium.

We're no different, we only supply standard sizes via our website but are happy to supply the non-standards via telephone orders.

Hope that heps
