I am embarking on putting in kitchen units (from ikea). The wall with
the run of cabinets is 3.0m exactly, with enclosing walls on either
side. I have balanced 4 sets of 600 units plus 1 500, which allows a
buffer of 100mm to allow for any spacing issues. Crude illustration
below using ascii chars:

My question is, do I start the first cabinet in 4-5cm and put a facia
over the gap, or do I start the first cabinet flush with the wall also
the last cabinet also flush to the opposite wall and put the gap in
the middle of the cabinets somewhere?

Why not put a tea-towel rail or a slot for trays in the 100mm gap?
