Default Cutting Kitchen Decor End Panels

Hi,

I am installing a Wickes Imola kitchen for a friend and there are some
very expensive decor end panels for the tall larder and oven housing
cabinets. These are made too long and too wide and need to be trimmed to
suit.

As they will be on show, what is the best way to cut these so that there
is no damage to the edge that I want to cut. What is the best tool or
blade to use.

On a couple of the cabinets, I have to cut one around the stair sloop
that comes into the kitchen so that the top part of the cupboard with be
a triangle in shape. The door facia will need to be cut as well. What
will be the best way to do this as well.

Thanks for you help.





Cut about 3mm oversize with a circular saw or jigsaw, and finish off
with a router - using a parallel cutter, and clamping a straight strip
of wood an appropriate distance in from the edge, to use as a guide.
