FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I choose made-to-fit panels?

It is best to choose a panel in the standard size suggested by an IKEA consultant so that it can be cut to the required pieces on-site. As a result, you will avoid possible problems with dimensioning.

If you have a specific dimension in mind, you can take advantage of our configurator and select the appropriate dimension range.

If you have any doubts, it is worth asking a designer or an installer for help in determining the dimensions. You can also order panels from us after installing and measuring the kitchen.

How wide should the side panels be?

We offer panels in standard widths of 62 cm and 39 cm, which can be cut as needed. The final panel width may depend on the assembly method, unevenness of the wall, or other elements.

The width of the panel results from the sum of the depth of the cabinets and the thickness of the front.

If you have any doubts, it is worth consulting a designer or installer or ordering panels from us after assembling and measuring the kitchen.

How to choose the panel size for the Hem model?

If you decide on a panel with a frame in the Hem model, remember that cutting will require interfering with the frame. Therefore, it is best to choose a panel in the target size.

Should the standing cabinet panel have a height of 80 cm or 88 cm?

By default, the side panels in our configurator are adjusted to the height that covers the feet with a height of 8 cm. However, you can choose a custom size shorter by 8 cm, which will only cover the body, or a higher panel if the plinths are more than 8 cm high.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Can I choose any plinth width?

Yes, you can enter your own plinth length. However, we recommend choosing a plinth in the standard size suggested by IKEA so that you can cut it to the necessary fragments on site. In this way, you will avoid possible problems with dimensioning. If you prefer a specific dimension, you can take advantage of our configurator by selecting the appropriate dimension from the range.

Can I choose any plinth height?

The standard plinth height is 8 cm, as in IKEA. However, in our configurator, you can choose any height up to 15 cm to adjust the plinth to the height of the legs in your kitchen.

Can the rims provided by IKEA be used to install the plinth?

No, our plinths have a different mounting system. Due to the used material, our plinths do not have guide bars that allow the use of IKEA rims. To install the plinth, you need the rims used as standard by carpenters, which are attached to the plinth using screws and they should be purchased individually.

What if I need a plinth longer than 220 cm?

The maximum length of a plinth in FRØPT is 220 cm. If your kitchen furniture requires a longer plinth, you should order more than one plinth. It is best to plan connecting the plinths in the places where the cabinets are connected, which will ensure an aesthetic appearance.
