Use a wall unit with 2 end panels either side to pull it out the required depth or use a base unit and cut to the required depths.

Either way are as much work.

Personalyy I would go the base unit route.

Kitchen looks like a generic Howdens job.

:lol: I'm only messing :lol:

No but he took down the artex ceiling and replaced it, plastered it and put in the downlighters and is going to skim the walls so I fancied trying something myself for once :lol:

Has get your Dad to do it been said yet? :o

Cheerd Andrew. Will have a quick look round Ikea, hopefully get a cheap unit to mess about with.

I don't know where the previous owner got the units from :( i'm guessing B&q as everything else appears to be from there, but even so, no standard size wall unit will fit around the boiler :(

MDF and paint it.

They did mine with large side end panels and an internal fridge door. Was enough left over to make a section to stand between the work surface and the new cupboard to cover up all the pipes etc.

Look in my house thread. :thumbs:

If you've got the room up to the window a 450mm base unit will only need reducing in depth and should fit over the boiler comfortably.

Cutting down a cabinet is probably your best solution.

Brother had a similar issue but he ended up getting a carpenter in who dismantled a new cabinet (including the door) and resized it all to fit; apart from the cabinet being smaller than the rest, you couldn't tell its been fettled with and just looks like an off-the-shelf unit.

Either get a bigger unit and cut it down, leaving the width the same obviously, or make one out of end panels to suit a standard door.

Currently in the process of doing the kitchen up and the boiler has been an eyesore ever since moving in 4 years ago. This is the best pic I have of it:



Ideally i'd like it to match my current kitchen units as anything else would look out of place.



Dimensions are: L: 700mm, W: 380mm, D: 310mm.

Looked at standard wall units but it doesn't appear that the boiler will fit inside one, so the only other option is making something with a door on the front.

Any ideas as to how I would go about this? Left side is pretty tight against the wall but theres enough space to get an arm down the side. I imagine i'd need to keep the top open to let heat out and also due to the pipes, but could close the bottom up?
