I am going to build a bench using IKEA fan cabinets, but my question is, how far in should the kickboard be installed? The legs are made for base cabinets that have pre-drilled "holes," and the pins on the legs need to be removed since these holes do not exist on the fan cabinets. But I don't know the distance (what looks good??) from the kickboard to the edge of the cabinet???
Thankful for help..

From the front edge of the cabinet frame to the plastic leg is 70mm. What that means for the hole pattern I don't know, but you'll have to figure it out a bit yourself ;)
 
One thanks...is it to the round plastic leg or to the rectangular plastic frame for the leg:)?
Best regards,

Rectangular.. :)
(I usually scold the kids when they mess with the baseboard of the corner cabinet.. but this time I jumped out of the couch :))
 
Btw I have the same thoughts, a bench/storage in the hallway made of IKEA frames.
Please get back to me with a picture of the result. :)
 
Thank you for the help... I'll get back to you :)... I have another problem as I'm going to have pull-out drawers and these don't seem to be adapted for the fläktskåpsluckorna (no pre-drilled holes).... so I'll have to measure there, but it's much more practical to have pull-outs at that height...

By the way, do you generate the outer corners?

Yes, they are gerat, in the baseboard that is.
It should probably be redone now, and perhaps an outer corner list glued there or something similar.

As you say, true, the fan cabinet/upper cabinets are for doors, but I assume those who use these in, for example, seating furniture in the kitchen and hall want drawers?
Or is there another frame that comes prepared with holes for pull-outs?
 
the frame has the right holes but not the door..:)...it only has the large holes for the hinges...have emailed ikea to see if they have a drilling template for it. Because this specific combination was mounted in the store with a pull-out, but silly me didn't look at how the door was attached to the pull-out drawer..

Does anyone have a rational full-extension drawer that can measure where the drill holes should be on the door:)? That would be nice...

If you insert the drawer into the carcass and then the fittings into the drawer, you can measure to determine where the fittings will be on the front, and in this way drill in the correct place... but be careful not to drill through the front as you need to go quite deep for the fittings to be pressed into the front...
 
Why isn't the front pre-drilled really?...or are no fronts from Ikea pre-drilled for the pull-out drawers? Yes, I might have to do as you say, measure my way forward, I saw that it seems possible to adjust the front slightly on a couple of adjustment screws afterward....

Fredrik: How far in is the base socket in the outer corners?...7 cm to the leg on the front side, but how far will it be where there is an outer corner?:)

25mm :)
From the side edge of the cabinet frame.
