Does the IKEA UTRUSTA wire basket fit into the FYNDIG base cabinet?

Hey guys,

does the 40cm Utrusta wire basket [1] probably fit into a FYNDIG base cabinet [2] or [3]?
In terms of dimensions, it could almost work, even though the middle holes for mounting are missing, but you could just drill them.

Would save me back pain and forgotten groceries.

Best regards

Rather not, because FYNDIG has inset doors. It's best if you build suitable drawers yourself.

Rather not, because FYNDIG has inward-opening doors.

But that shouldn't be an obstacle, right? The doors start at 57 cm and the basket is only 56.5 cm deep.

Better build suitable drawers yourself.

That fails already at the basket?

The width is the problem. The door protrudes into the cabinet with its full thickness when it is open, doesn’t it?

It doesn’t have to be a basket. A similar drawer will do as well. There are kits available for that.

The width is the problem. The door extends into the carcass with its full thickness when it is open, right?

No, of course I measured up to the open door. The door extends about 1 cm into the carcass. The carcass itself has a total depth of about 59 cm. With the door at the "deepest point," it is about 57.5 cm.

It doesn’t have to be a basket. A drawer similar to it works as well. There are kits for that.

I’m not upgrading a 25 EUR cabinet with a 22 EUR drawer. I’d rather saw off the basket at the back. Did you see my Amazon alternative?

I see the problem more in the WIDTH, not the depth. The door could be in the way of the basket when you want to pull it out.

The offer on Amazon is cheap, but only fits 50 cm wide cabinets. Here too, you have to consider that the door might be in the way. Individually, you can build a drawer in the appropriate width.
