Evening everyone!

I finally treated myself to a new kitchen last week, it was about time! So... off to Ikea... bought Metod in a U-shape. I bought the electrical appliances from a local specialist dealer.

But !!!!! Now my problem: The fully integrated Bosch dishwasher should be placed between the freestanding fridge-freezer combo and the Metod sink cabinet. Since I also have the matching front for the dishwasher here, along with the corresponding mounting kit... my question...

The mounting kit has two "HINGES" at the bottom that are each attached to the adjacent cabinets on the left and right side using a drilling template.

Unfortunately, I only have a cabinet on the right side next to the dishwasher!

Does IKEA offer a solution for this? For example, a side panel?

Hello, you also need a side panel to support the worktop. There is no ready-made solution for this. You have to make the one side panel yourself, e.g., from the worktop or the covering side.

Well... first of all, thanks for the tip! But what scares me about the installation instructions for the front mounting kit... it looks like I have to drill through the dishwasher door from the inside... to attach these two dark add-on parts... where the sliding rails will later snap in???

No, you don't have to drill through a door. Please provide a link to the installation manual and the page with the illustration.

The instructions assume that there are holes for mounting in the dishwasher door. The nail is only to transfer the position of the holes onto the two parts in order to then drill holes there.
