Hello,
The total width of the base cabinets, including the dishwasher, is 320 cm (126 inches).
I have also ordered my countertop today in 320 cm (126 inches) because the 60 cm (24 inches) tall cabinet is supposed to go next to it.
I am now worried that on the far left by the wall, there might be a gap of about 0.5 to 1.0 cm (0.2 to 0.4 inches) if I can’t fit the dishwasher into a 60 cm (24 inches) wide niche.
Do you have any ideas on how to cleverly and neatly cover a small gap between the wall and the countertop?
Regards,
Chris

IKEA-Experte7 Dec 2016 22:17In the last silicone joint compound test I read, there were significant differences in shrinkage among the products. With one centimeter (0.4 inches), this can be quite noticeable.
I am now planning to glue an 8mm (0.3 inch) worktop there.
On top of that will be a 4mm (0.15 inch) glass panel and a 6mm (0.24 inch) silicone joint. This should look good.
Does anyone have a different idea for the sides? Maybe just an L-profile to prevent anything from flowing under the worktop?

robi_aus_ffm8 Dec 2016 10:13I have a basic question....
Would it be possible for you to shift everything 1 cm (0.4 inches) to the left? That includes the carcasses under the countertop. Having 1 cm (0.4 inches) extra space on the right side next to the tall cabinet wouldn’t be a problem, would it?

The wall trim would only be on the sides, because I need to install a recessed outlet on the front surface. That leaves no room for a trim piece there. Well, we’ll see.
It’s not that simple.
Having trim only on the sides and none on the front probably won’t look very good.
