Default Kitchen base unit fitting

When you are fitting base units and one end is going to be hard up
against a wall what is the normal practice?

Do most people put in an end support panel so the door has more
clearance or is there something else you can do.


I put a narrow fillet of timber in there of the right type.


I have tried it hard against the wall


Oooh-er!


and the door opens and closes ok,
maybe just scuffs the edge ever so slightly.


It doesn't look quite right to me when the doors are right up
against the wall...


Also whats the best way to support them as the plastic legs dont look
upto much and I am going to be putting heavy tambour units on top.


They're actually quite strong. You could use timber and packing,
I suppose...
