One final loose end to clear up in our kitchen fit, if anyone can assist.

We wer going to put a Tambor unit (roller-fronted shelving unit) in, but the logistics meant that the roll up front couldn't.

We're left with an open shelf unit that looks out of place, hence the need for a glass-fronted door. Our supplier says neither of their manufacturer ranges do one to a customer's measurements.

Does anyone know where we might be able to get an opaque glass door framed in aluminium with the approx dimentions 450mm w x 800mm H, either a single door or a bi-fold.

Thanks in advance.

Has it got to match any other glass-fronted doors?

This shows the adjacent wall cupboards best, albeit our range/colour is Rialto Oxygen with Aluminium edging

If it was me I'd buy the next size cabinet up, dismantle it, cut it to the new size, buy new toughened/frosted glass panels the right size (you can't cut toughened glass), and reassemble. Not easy and not cheap, but it depends how desperate you are to get what you want.

Hmmm wonder if a horizontal wall cabinet could be suitably butchered scratchchin

It's a p in the a because that one part looks unresolved, so yes, a solution will be found...

Sorry can't help with a solution (other than agreeing with the larger size cut down and new glass suggestion), but just to say that it seems we're both struggling on to finish those last tiny bits on gloss kitchens. smile I've got a small gap to fill above a row of ovens, but it needs to be vented to pass hot air from the units below and I want it to match with either the brushed stainless steel of the ovens or the gloss black of their other trim.

Let's see who has still got a bit unfinished come Christmas. smile (I'll put money on it being me!).
