blum internal kitchen drawers

Hi,
I'm after some internal drawers for my 500 units, but don't quite know what to order and how to fit them. I'm after the blum tandembox variety, but have come across 2 types - one says they are full width of the cabinet and need a different kind of door hinge. The other says it is full width but needs a packer to offset the hinge. How can this be so? looking at my tandembox drawers at the top of the units, they fit the exact width with no room for a packer. Are internal drawers narrower, or different to standard tandembox drawers. Very confusing?
anyone any experience of internal drawers?
thanks

Ikea do a set of 3 "internal" drawers. There are 2 deep drawers and one shallow one. They are available in sets of 3 for 300 and 500 width 18 mm carcasses.
They are Blum but not tamdembox, you will need the 153 deg hinges they also sell or you could attach the door to the bottom drawer and make it into a pull out larder unit.

But there is a very good chance the drawers will be two long for non ikea cabinets. Ikea cabinets do not have service voids making the cupboards deeper that standard shed cabinets.
The last set I saw from IKEA the bottom drawer attached to the cupboard door turning the cupboard into a bottom drawer with a very large front which then exposes two internal drawers when open. This eliminates the need for hinges. From memory they are about 60quid in Ikea, 90 in Howdens and 150+ in Wickes and B&Q.0 -
thanks guys. Do ikea sell them individually or just in sets of three. Don't suppose you have a web link to them? Ikea website is useless. I can never find anything there.0
