RFI on Kitchen Plinth Clips

Jul 27, 2007 11 Replies

Currently having a new kitchen fitted, and the fitter has just found that the suppliers (Homebase) have only included four plinth clips, which are essentially a thin sprung-metal affair that is fixed to the top of the plinth and holds it in place by friction.



We need (a lot) more clips, especially as some base units will need the plinth to be fixed to the exposed side as well as the front.



Is there a more substantial design of clip that is readily available from the sheds? A Google hasn't come up with anything obvious, but perhaps I'm searching on the wrong terms.



TIA.


Have a look at the Woodfit website .If you don't get plinth clips there I'll be very surprised .The one I have used you fit one piece to the inner side of the plinth and the other part clips to it and to the legs of the units .

================================== If all else fails consider making your own using tool clips:

B&Q plinth clips are like Jubilee clips, screw to the back of the plinth and then clip over the round unit legs. They sell them separately in larger sheds.

Jubilee clips are hose clips aren't they? Aren't you thinking of Terry clips?

The posher ones have a sliding mount for the clip so you don't have to get them spot on in alignment with the legs.

Hi Terry,

Try these guys:

Many thanks to all who replied.

In the end I found that about ten miles from here is a *huge* B&Q; it's about the size of a couple of aircraft hangars. They had the two-part clips in stock, and I got plenty for the job in hand at only £1 for four....sorted, thanks!
