Front for sink/waste combo

Hello IKEA expert (or whoever else is reading this message…),
is this possible with the standard IKEA items or do we need to improvise? And what special materials are needed???

I am asking because the IKEA fitter is currently at our home installing the countertop and still has to complete a few remaining tasks, including the one with the sink/waste combo.
At the IKEA store, we were told that it is NOT possible to make the 60x60cm drawer look like a 20x60 and a 40x60 drawer!?
I would prefer this look, because next to the combo is my semi-integrated dishwasher, which needs the 20 cm high flap mechanism at the bottom, and if the above solution were possible, I would have a unified look that wouldn’t create so much “visual disturbance”…

So what is true? Sometimes I feel that the IKEA employees themselves do not really know what is possible and what is not with Metod…

I suspect you are looking for

Connecting rail for fronts

Connecting rail for fronts
Item number: 602.635.88

The connecting rail adapts the drawer front to the other fronts and ensures a seamless appearance in the kitchen.

Edit:
I took the rail from the assembly instructions for
METOD / Maximera
Base cabinet for sink/3 fronts/2 drawers, white, Veddinge gray

taken. In the picture, the 20 cm is on top, the 40 cm below. However, with the rail, I see no reason why it shouldn't work the other way around as well.

It might be that not all drillings are suitable for the high [MAXIMERA] extension, but that is not an insurmountable problem. Please report your experiences.

I have the pull-out under the sink with a 60 cm door in front of it. There is a special fitting for this (whose article number I don't have on hand at the moment), including a drilling template, because there is not a single matching pre-drilled hole in the door. After all, it is a door that only has the pre-milled hinge recesses.

The same again for the trash bin insert, which also requires additional drilling in the door.

That really shouldn't be a problem. You may need to measure precisely if no template is included.

For 20 cm and 40 cm fronts, all necessary holes are pre-drilled, so there is no template. The 20 cm front does not fit the tall drawer, so it may be that the assembled front does not have holes in the required positions. Of course, it is not a big problem to mount the rail bracket anyway, especially since the holes in the connecting rail should already be in the correct position. This information is intended primarily for less experienced DIYers or those having the kitchen assembled who receive nonsense from the craftsmen.

Hi,
I am new here and am considering buying a Metod kitchen and came across a similar problem with the 80 cm domsjö:
The matching base cabinet has 2 doors, but I would prefer a drawer, electrically operated, as even shown in the catalog, but how does it work?
Do you install a Maximera drawer and connect both doors or do you buy a 40x80 front and mount a 20 cm drawer front above it as a cover?

Best regards
Joachim
