I'm about to order my kitchen and I'm scratching my head over adjustable feet and built in appliances.
The problem is that I have a beam in the ceiling right where I need to put my built in fridge. It is going to be touch and go if it will fit under the beam on the standard 150mm feet. I hoped to get around this by ordering it on 100mm feet , with a 100mm plinth but now I'm wondering if that will make the built in dishwasher not fit/ open properly.
Can anyone be of assistance at all? Thank you

I'm in the thick of this now - but don't understand your question totally.

are you really talking about a plinth space of 1cm? would that actually have a plinth on it?

I'm about to order a dishwasher tonight or tomorrow.I don't yet know if it has any plinth space - will let you know when it arrives if you like.

but you can choose from different heights. 82 seems normal from what ive seen.

otherwise what about the tall cupboard looking slightly different ?

this post may be no help to you at all!

Plinth of 10cm rather than the 15cm standard. Thanks for trying to help Wink Wink

sorry - that was dim of me!

well our plinths are 8cm from IKEA so I think it would look OK..

If the plinths are too tall, just cut them?

Also with regards to the dishwasher- I often see a recess cut into the top of the plinth where the dishwasher door swings low as it rotates down
