Hi, we received an email from Houzz about you and I thought I would introduce our business; Sydney Doors to you as we could be of service. We manufacture custom made kitchen and wardrobe doors in a raw or polyurethane finish. We also pick up and deliver and are known for our friendly, efficient service. Please contact me if we can be of assistance. Regards.

This does not look unsafe to me, the concerns you have are warranted because you have had a terrible experience. Generally speaking, things like this can be resolved easily, however your tradespeople are unwilling to assist you. It does look to me the clips that attach to the unit itself and then secure to the carcass are not attached correctly, this perhaps was a rushed appliance install without reading the spec sheet. Two things may have happened, either the clips have simply not been fastened properly, or secondly, they have broken in the installers haste. If you o with Fiona_abs suggestion, the company will be held accountable, only it may take awhile. I fear perhaps thats why so many people experience these shonky trades, because resolving issues can seem to hard. Your kitchen is beautiful, and your money as good as anyone else's. I hope you take them to fair trading and force their hand at returning to sort these things out. And when all is said and done, name and shame them! Reputation is everything in this industry, it seems there's so much work out there, they can pick and choose, and treat people badly. Not on. If it all seems to much to deal with, I believe you could still ave the result you want. If so, a local handyman can tell you which of the step it is, and the clips could be sourced from the manufacturer as a spare part. I'm hoping it will be an easy final fix! Good luck

That is a hard one with those tiles. I would have to think if you did a white, it would kind of work with the colour of your tiles. At the end of the day, they do need to be replaces, but as you said, due to budgeting reasons, you cannot, I can pass on this photo of a nice bathroom with those tiles for you though for inspiration... : )

I took no offense to your comments at all. I'm not swayed either, nor biased by the laminex group. I'd myself go with the lexicon 1/4 to get that perfect match to your interior, polar white is very Starck, like paper, and I beleive is still in the core range??? As for the tab top handles, they are probably what your calling finger pull, if so they will be mounted on the top side of the door and you just use a finger to pull out the lip and they are almost invisible. THe next best thing to a shadow line or finger grip detail. If this is the case, that's why the warranty is void! The joiner will need to shave mm off and slightly rebate this handle to close properly. Any cutting not a vinyl panel voids it's warranty, as it's like cutting open vacuum sealed salami and returning it for refund! Anyway they can avoid this by excluding this handle from offer, or anticipating its selection in the process before ordering doors, so they can reduce the door height by 10mm to accomodate etc, etc. I'm not sure why the warranty is less than the vinyl door than the painted ones, I think your referring to colour tech painted doors? There is also crystal gloss wi a polyurethane finish. Lastly, albedor and tesrol are Australian made vinyl doors, albedor has an extensive profile range of doors, one of the largest, a strong reputation and their service reps are well informed so specifiers always have a great relationship with them. Tesrol I like because they have great provincial accents or accessories like their capping moulds and elements to make a traditional kitchen quite grand a scale, usually only an optin for cashed up kitchens. They are based in NSW, but even in Melbourne, they always met our needs, although slitly dearer. And laminex doors, take the lead off both of those companies, and made here also. They have a very strict quality control, and although vinyl is not their primary product, they do well for service. There are many more worth mentioning, but I myself always ask the joiner who they order through, and ask for their vinyl brochure to select from. If they are not made in oz, then ask for another product, or another joiner. No sense in saving cost on a product which relies heavily on warranty guarantee, replacement and service will be met easier and quicker locally than imported, and more important, our strict standards are regulated to monitor the use of arsenic and formaldehyde, and is not adhered to in many imported door ranges.
