Hello Ikea fans!

I have planned and bought a new Metod kitchen with Ringhult fronts and Blankett handles. An ISANDE fridge/freezer combo is being used.

It is now properly installed in the METOD tall cabinet. However, when mounting the BLANKETT handles vertically on the edge of the RINGHULT front, it turns out that the fridge no longer closes properly if the BLANKETT handle sits in the gap between the RINGHULT front and the METOD carcass.

How can I solve this problem? The first idea is to mill out the carcass where the handle sits to the thickness of the handle, but of course that is very unattractive. Is it intended that the handle does not fit? I am pretty sure I have seen the solution assembled at IKEA. Did I assemble something incorrectly?

Thank you very much for your help!
Stefan

Hello, the door regularly has a 1.5 mm gap from the body due to the buffers. Half a millimeter more should not be a big problem. Actually, only the refrigerator can sit a little bit too deep in the cabinet if the door closes properly without a handle.
