Hello everyone. I started assembling 4 Metod cabinets yesterday. All 2 meters high, 60 wide and 37 cm deep. Now to my problem: I want to install 3 Maximera drawers in the bottom of one cabinet that are not connected to the door. I installed the bottom one and now the cabinet door can no longer be closed because the drawer front sticks out too far. Does anyone have an idea what I did wrong?!?

Hello,

please count the mounting holes again with which you attached the rails. The screws must be in the 2nd hole as far as I know (different than when assembling drawers with an outer front). There is a separate section about this in the manual.

The use as an inner drawer is always the last part in the instructions.

If you installed it correctly but the hinge height doesn't fit (happened to me) and it's still very important for you to place it exactly at that spot, you have to remove the back panel at the rail's position. Then the rail can be shifted one hole backward and no longer hits the hinge. (However, it can then be pulled out 1c less accordingly.)

But usually, the above-mentioned error is the case.

Thank you very much for the quick responses. I probably didn't read the instructions properly because I was so focused on the instructions. Now everything fits perfectly and the door is closed.
