old 700mm hight...*******S!......does anybody know if any place can
supplt new door fronts that will fit ?


Ouch a kitchen that only lasts 8 years

Buy cheap/poor quality and you live to regret it. The kitchen we
replaced must have been 20 years old but it was still in good condition,
just 'dated'. Someone short on cash took it and reused it- I expect they
will get another decade plus out of it. It was a Roseby - I assume the
previous owners had fitted it. I swapped some of the units around when
we bought the house then we changed it about 8 years ago. The
replacement still looks new.

As for Jim's problem, there is a company that makes doors to order for
those trying to do things on the cheap and use old units. They advertise
in various national newspapers. I've not used them but I heard someone
mention them on 80m. They will even 'copy' an existing door to replace a
damaged one- that was the discussion on 80m.

Possibly one of these:
