I don't quite understand. The tall cabinet is right against the kitchen wall, so how am I supposed to get to the socket from below? Regards, Section Chief

As Zetterberg wrote above, the devices have a rear wall pulled forward, provided it is mounted at all in some places. This also applies to the floors, otherwise the air could not circulate along the back of the devices.

Hello,

My cabinets do not stand flush against the wall because I have a strip of tiles between the upper and lower cabinets, which is also somewhat larger than the visible cutout. It’s the same behind the tall cabinets, so I could theoretically guide the cable along the bottom. (applies to Faktum)

With Metod, there is supposed to be a rail in which the cabinets are hung, so there should be space at the bottom as well.

In any case, try to be generous when routing the cable so that you can not only easily disconnect the devices from the power supply but also get the cables plus plugs well through the openings when replacing the devices (unfortunately, no device lives forever and usually shorter than the cabinets). With my mother, back in the early 70s, the kitchen studio plugged the refrigerator into a cabinet next door. Disconnecting it from the power for defrosting was never a problem since the plug then hung in the cabinet, but the cable routing was so bad that when replacing the refrigerator, its cabinet and even the adjacent cabinet had to be removed. She still has the kitchen today, and a few years ago, after the umpteenth disassembly of the umpteenth refrigerator, we put boards in the cabinet and bought a freestanding refrigerator. Now it can break down without the kitchen instantly turning into a construction site.

Have fun planning
