the 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

I think I'd be looking for another supplier

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.

ITYF it's not particularly "on the cheap"


I wasn't suggesting changing doors was cheap- he should have bought a
kitchen which would last. Jim is a cheapskate and cuts corners- ask him
about his laptops.


He wanted doors so I suggested a source.
