Hello,
Our Metod has been standing around for a while now... eventually, we need to close the gaps.
Our kitchen is arranged in a U-shape. The long side of course never matches the exact measurement to be completely filled with cabinets. So, there’s always a gap somewhere where a filler strip (I think that’s what it’s called in the planner) should go.
But where can I get one? Ideally, it should be the same color as the cabinet fronts.
And how do I attach it?
Best regards
Spanni

It’s really frustrating that IKEA doesn’t offer suitable edge banding.

IKEA-Experte6 Nov 2015 15:18This is not that simple. The countertops come from a manufacturer that is set up to produce custom sizes, as this has always been standard practice. The cabinet fronts, on the other hand, are mass-produced by different companies that are probably not equipped to handle custom orders.
You could try asking a designer what their idea was behind the filler panels. Maybe it works to contact FirstName.LastName@IKEA.com

I also find it very unlikely that a manufacturer who does not sell directly to end customers would make an exception for a custom order, especially using materials that are reserved for a major client.
If you look at the countries of manufacture on the packaging, you’ll see that the parts are produced in Italy, Poland, etc., which doesn’t make it any easier.

IKEA-Experte9 Nov 2015 17:20I’m not sure if it will work, but you could try cutting a door 3cm (1¼ inches) wider than needed, then saw it down to the correct width just up to right under the membrane, peel the wood away from the membrane, and then heat the membrane to shape it over the edge and stick it in place.
