Does a 70cm Base cabinet even exist?


Hi all


Im looking for a 70cm Base cabinet for sink + 2 doors but can only find 80cm. Which will work but would be better to fit if it was 70cm. Do 70cm ones even exist? If anyone has any links to one available to collect in Scotland ie at Howdens, B and Q or IKEA that would be amazing!!!


Something like below:

    Although the door sizes wouldn't match, another option is to reduce a 800 unit by 100mm, and fit a 300 + 400 door to it.

    I've hacked base units around to get things to fit before now. Using different size doors would look odd though. If you were going 300+400, might as well use separate units and save the hassle of hacking. That said, a 300mm cupboard is not a lot of use and just gets used as a dumping ground for bits of tat (used to have one in my old kitchen).

    Any language construct that forces such insanity in this case should be abandoned without regrets. –

    You won't find 700mm units off the shelf, or 350mm doors.

    Is it just one unit you're buying?
