Hello,
I have a soffit wall in the bathroom on the side of the washbasin. I cut out a niche there for a recessed mirror cabinet. The framework behind it allows for a niche width of 121 cm (48 inches). However, the installation frame of the desired recessed cabinet is 122.2 cm (48 inches). So, I’m missing just over 1 cm (0.4 inches) to fit the frame without issues. The wall is tiled up to halfway.
My question is: Is it possible to saw the framework behind in a way that the installation frame would fit, or would that compromise the overall stability of the wall? Are there other options to get the mirror cabinet into the niche? (Only the cabinet would fit dimensions-wise.) Or am I forced to tear down the upper part of the wall? No matter how I would have to do it...
I would really appreciate any suggestions or ideas!

I just realized it’s actually about the width Exactly. The profile at the bottom is just placed in and I will cut it to size. The question is whether I can omit the installation frame — which is unfortunately too wide — and install the mirror cabinet — which fits the dimensions — without the frame.
As you already suggested, I’ll have the mirror cabinet delivered first and then see if there are other installation methods.
