integrated fridge freezer?

How did you both resolve the problem of linking to the cupboard doors? As I said, I had to find the model number of a built-in fridge and then order the sliders as spare parts.

I was looking at replacements for my f/f last night on eBay. I see that they're all the same height, which is understandable, but I have tall units so they wouldn't fit, regardless of door heights. Otherwise, I suppose I could go down the non built-in route again, but it may be a job to find 550-wide fridges easily.

Oh, no, I didn't bother with that - mine was installed inside a tall larder unit. The carpenter built a platform from the same wood to take the doors of the FF up to the same level as the door would be on the cupboard (so that the bottom bit of the fridge - he bit with the ventilation holes - was behind where the plinth would be). So the cupboard door had to be opened, and then the fridge or freezer door opened - daresay some people would complain about that, but I never found it a problem.
