15 years agoMy KD designed the panel to look like a seamless piece of the cabinets. The whole run has a drawer at the top.

Comments (4)Thank you, this is VERY helpful and so far proving my point. Any more? (And, I'd also love to know the length of the appliance handles. The largest I can find is 18" and most seem to be 12")...See MoreShow me pics of your built-in fridge with custom panels, please

Comments (3)Thanks Roseofblue, I read your thread about painting the steel cabinets and I think it would be so great if you kept them. I imagine it must be difficult to leave behind a cherry kitchen! It's nice to hear from someone who had and loved marble! Our cabinets are Candlelight cabinetry, the door style is called Carriage, one of their inset offerings. Our dishwasher is a Bosch Integra. I haven't tried it out yet. I ordered all the appliances from AJMadison.com and the salesman threw in the DW for free! I've heard good things about it but I'm leaving a house after 6 years that has no DW so I would have taken anything. The prep sink faucet is a replacement. The original one I ordered was supposed to be pretty nice, at least the price suggest so. The "nickel" was peeling off so I returned it and grabbed the one in the pic at my local Home Depot at the last minute. It's a Glacier Bay, less than $100. I hope it holds up. I do like it though! Amac514, I will take a close up of my DW panel today sometime. I hope others include pics because mine is not completely flush with the cabinets and I think others may have planned better for that....See MorePlease show me your cabinet end panels!
Comments (14)Ends left undecorated can visually relieve a room full of same-faced cabinets. Cabinet man was very insistent that we include the dummy trimming but I held firm and am glad I did. It's illogical to me to have doors into the same space from two sides, unless they're truly functional. We have asked NOT to have any "shaker" panels on our ends. It gives us a flat plane on which something else might be mounted--a decorative piece, towel rack, bulletin board, telephone, etc. Also, I won't have the dilemma of whether or not to put a knob on a phony door. Because our cabinets are wood finish, it also gives a full panel of the oak veneer instead of a cut-up one, so it's important that the cabinetmaker be aware that you'd expect a good-looking hunk of veneer instead of one with too much screwy grain. (I wish I had included that proviso in my directions regarding end panels. One is not a show-off hunk of oak, sigh.) Our cabinet man was very concerned with how to work the crown molding on a cabinet that had an end panel facing new lobby. He convinced us to inset the cabinet the depth of the molding so that there was no molding sticking into the lobby space and no need to tamper with the end of the molding. This leaves us with about 1.5 inches of paint to apply alongside the upper cabinet....See Morecharlikin

15 years agoHere are ours...one on each side our sink. I do think that any feet would probably get in the way.
Can't believe you're this far with your kitchen. I can't wait to see it!

15 years agoWe're still working on the kitchen so this is an unfinished pic, but hopefully it helps. Mine has the same style pull as the other cabinets (ok I have a lot of pulls actually) but it's larger (I used a subzero pull) you can see we're still waiting for trim. I'll have a wood trim on the base as well as around the sink, etc.

15 years agoWe made our own out of two cabinet doors we didn't use, and I put a big honkin' handle on it for the dishtowel (sorry not the best pic):

15 years agoMy kitchen is more contemporary so we have flat panels. However we have two dishwashers, one is integrated, the other is not, so most people think this is just another cabinet. Hardly anyone realizes it's actually a DW.
The toe kick matches all the others and is held in place with velcro

15 years agoMy panels were a 2 piece design, matching cabinet doors. My Bosch dishwasher had instructions for a one or a 2-piece door panel. Each part has 4 screws to secure it into the steel face of my DW. I used a matching door pull and it is fine. I'm not exactly sure how it is with the Miele but there should be instructions along with your DW. I really love the look, BTW.
