Hello everyone.

I am currently assembling my Metod kitchen. So far, everything is fine.

But now I have a tall cabinet, with a base cabinet attached on the side at the bottom and another tall cabinet attached on top. How do I mount the side panel on the tall cabinet to cover the remaining visible side wall?

If I use the panels in the original size, it is basically between the tall cabinet and the base cabinet. However, then I can no longer hook the base cabinet into the protruding feet of the tall cabinet because the panel is in between. That can’t be the intended way.

So, should I cut the panel or put the tall and base cabinets each on their own feet and push them together (and screw them together later)?

Regards and thanks for your tips!

Top! I hadn't thought of trimming the noses on the feet...

Is there a rule for how far the panel must protrude forward so that it aligns reasonably flush with the fronts of the drawers? If the panel ends flush at the back of the cabinet, it sticks out too far at the front...

Simply according to the finished measurement?

Regards

If the cover panel is notched out on the hanging rail as shown in the video, so that it rests against the wall, it protrudes by the appropriate measure.

Must work without the rail due to the wall conditions.

Does the front edge of the panel align flush with the fronts of the drawers or is it slightly recessed?

Both look okay...

Even without a rail, the carcasses have a distance of 1 cm from the wall when mounted with the spacers. The edge of the top panel is recessed by a few millimeters depending on the chosen front.
