Non Standard height Kitchen Wall Units.

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help.

I need to get a new kitchen fitted where the garage used to be, However I need 600mm in height, kitchen wall units due to height limits.

I've been to Wickes, B&Q and Homebase, and they all say that they don't do anything under 700mm in height (apart form the top boxes which are too small).

Anyone got any ideas where it is possible to get this size from, as I can't fit anything more than 600mm.

Thanks

  • I'm probably stating the obvious here but could you just fit the cupboards 10cm lower?

    Magnet or independents will do 600mm high wall units...
    If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands

    Unfortunately it's not going to be possible:(

    The problem is the ceiling height is low. With the base unit's + the 700mm Wall units mounted right up to the ceiling the gap in-between is only 15". I was told the minimum required is 18" otherwise it won't look right.
