Hi

Anyone had experience of the above?

Two points come to mind; do the doors have pre drilled holes for hinges -
and if so are they 'standard' across the trade? I don't have a problem
drilling said holes, I'd just like to know the spacing if any.

Second, how do the replacement drawer fronts fit existing drawers? I've
seen many different styles of drawer construction and wondered how a
universal drawer front would attach?

Really the question is - are they a universal replacement for 99% of
existing kitchen units?

Im always mixing and matching kitchen doors and carcasses to repair damage.
Very few will ever be a bolt on fit, but none have yet been impossible to
fit.
doors normally have pre drilled hinge holes Which then don't align with
screw holes in carcasses.

No but what joy it is to see a modernised kitchen at so little cost.

No they are all different AFAIK - given that so much about kitchen units
*is* standard across brands, like overall widths/heights of units, it
begs the question why hasn't this been standardised too? I suppose the
cynical answer is that it would make it just too easy for Joe Public to
nip down to his local kitchen door emporium and be able to give his
kitchen a total refurb for about an hours' easy work, rather than buying
a whole new kitchen?

Never used the Screwfix ones but I'm assuming they're intended for
drawers which are provided as one-piece plastic items which sit on
runners, and which you simply screw on the selected drawer front?
