Hello,
According to the IKEA local staff, my question has been partially answered but not in enough detail. Perhaps someone here has relevant experience and can share any tricks that might be necessary, if there are any.
In our kitchen, model Faktum with Härlig doors, some doors need to be replaced due to damage caused by swollen laminate. Whether this qualifies as a warranty case is not the topic here.
What I want to know is:
Can the Härlig doors be replaced with doors from a newer series? For example, HÄGGEBY or Veddinge.
From what I’ve heard, adjustments are necessary. What exactly are the issues?
Can these be handled with basic carpentry skills and the right tools? Or are the new hinge holes placed so close to the old ones that they overlap?
As far as I can tell, the problem is not due to the external dimensions.
Thanks for any helpful advice.

We are trying to solve technical problems together here, right? This should be possible without emotions, shouldn’t it? That means responses should be considered.
I want to raise this again: It was not (initially) disputed that the Faktum cabinets have widths that match the nominal dimensions from the catalog, such as 400, 600, etc. However, it was stated that the Method cabinets are wider than the Faktum ones. That is, they would be wider than the exact nominal width. But I doubted that and asked for this observation to be reconsidered. Nothing more.
