Worktop 5-10mm too short

Hello,

the total width of the base cabinets including the dishwasher is 320 cm.

I also ordered my countertop, which I will pick up today, at 320 cm, because the 60 cm tall cabinet is supposed to go next to it.

I am now worried that I might have about 0.5-1.0 cm of space on the far left by the wall if I can't fit the dishwasher into a 60 cm niche.

Do you have any ideas how to cleverly and neatly cover a small gap between the wall and the countertop?

Regards,
Chris

hello Chris,

there are different possibilities...
I installed a niche cladding made of glass, looks good, splash guard, covers the old tiles and also any small gaps on the left, right, and back are covered with it.

Regards robi

Hello Robi,

I have already ordered something like that for the back. It could also be done on the left and right.

Only from the front, the thickness of the worktop (end-grain side) is then provided with a gap at the edge.

From the front (the 38mm thick board) it still does not lie completely against it.

I sealed/filled the edges with silicone. You can also get that in many colors.

When everything is being installed, the dishwasher fits into a 60 cm wide gap. Don’t worry too much about problems that don’t exist.

1 cm is missing on the left.

I will caulk that with silicone and then put the side glass panel on it, then seal the joint with silicone. It might then possibly no longer be visible.
