Floor plan planning shortly before submitting the building application

Really? Someone said there are problems with it squirting out. Open ones only make sense at 160cm.

That’s me, from personal experience.

That's me, from my own experience.

Especially since we are not exactly using thrifty and pressure-poor elements.

Especially since we are not exactly using economical and low-pressure elements.

More depth is undoubtedly better.
But you have to weigh it up. Because of 10 cm and possibly a backing plate as Bookstar wrote, I would not give up the awesome mirrored cabinet.

Why actually 10cm? It's 160cm vs. 140cm.

I might have to mark it with chalk to see if 140cm is even enough.

Even if it fits, besides the limitation to 140cm, you have about €3,000 costs for the wall renovation including plumbing to deal with.

I was just thinking about alternatively taking the same mirror cabinet as a surface-mounted version. That way the wall could stay as it is and so could the 160cm shower. The look would just suffer slightly.

It would be the Emco Prestige surface-mounted light mirror cabinet with wide door on the right with the article number 989706021. I think that's what we'll do. I'm also afraid it would get even tighter by the toilet otherwise.

I believe the drywall installer only thinks in terms of drywall. My suggestion was to leave the KS wall standing up to the lower edge of the mirror cabinet, and to only rebuild the mirror cabinet on the sides and top with drywall.

The problem with the solution is that the mirror is so wide that it also covers the L piece. And that is probably a problem because the other side of the wall is also affected. This was told to me independently by several parties, some of whom have no knowledge of each other.

Someone once said that if you do that, you have to constantly reapply acrylic throughout the year, as it will keep popping off at the corner.

And unfortunately, it doesn't help me in terms of depth either....

Apparently, the drywall still has to be almost 8cm deeper than the built-in frame coming in there. That simply becomes too much given the conditions. Therefore, the tendency is to go for a surface-mounted mirror cabinet and keep everything as it is.
