new kitchen doors for old 70s units - options? sources? costs?

I bought new kitchen doors from these people. All made to measure and very pleased with everything.

I found it the other way round - new doors were the same height as my imperial? originals, but slightly wider.

o far : is "custom made" the only real option here?

Could the doors just hang 15mm down below the base of the units? Presumably there's a plinth?

For the wall units, you could call it a concealed handle feature.

I replaced 80s MFI with current B&Q doors and drawer fronts. There was a slight discrepancy on the height, but I was able to lose it by dropping the drawer fronts slightly and exposing the bottom edge of the carcass a little more. Looks fine IMO The hinge positions weren't a problem either IIRC, although I forget the precise details.

IKEA doors are 15mm shorter than most - 700mm rather than 715mm. Slightly limited range of widths, but those they do are standard.

Maybe.

I have had custom sized doors made up by my local laminate suppliers at prices *way* below any of the "replace your doors" firms that come up with a google search.

A set of 14 doors and drawer fronts from them cost around £120, several were custom sizes.

mmm quick look online and they (Faktum) say they are 860mm tall - does that include legs?

do they sell doors seperate?

I replaced my old MFI ("Schreiber") doors with custom-made doors from here:
