NeverTooLate said:Mmm, not sure about the skirting, I want to be able to run the hoover straight in on the floor without having to lift it.The skirting is purely an option, but is one of the things you will need to decide on.If you don't have a skirting or floor-frame, you'll need to work out how close your door and drawer front bottoms can get to the flooring before it makes contact; too low and scrapes, too high and you'll have a visible gap along the bottom when the doors are closed - where dust will get in
Keep looking at pics, taking these factors into account.0 -
