Comments (7)I agree with the sliding door or reverse the door to open out. Masters cabinets, 600 base sink cupboard and 600 open space for undermount washing machine. ( same as used for dishwasher) I would use a tall end piece to block the toilet slightly and frame the cabinets. Then have 1200 of overhead cabinets. If your toilet is old I would replace it but not move it. Back to the wall suite looks neat and may be more compact. As you will be getting a plumber anyway, might be worth considering. As your door is now not opening in, this leaves space for shelving. At this stage you will only have two overhead cabinets and one under the sink. IKEA Molger wall shelf is only 18cm deep, I think any deeper and it won't work. you could probably put one near the window on the wall were the door used to open. And another two on the back wall. Molger also has a over the toilet shelf. My suggestion would be that if you get this, you hang the shelves to match the over toilet shelf.

Comments (12)I have a separate guest toilet without windows using a ceiling extractor fan - not a problem. I also have internal cavity sliding doors to bathrooms and toilets and love how they give extra space and options regarding placement of items. Another location alternative for you may be between the cinema room and the kitchen, depending on what you had planned for that extra space in the kitchen. Two metres is a wide hallway, if that is what it is? Ours is 1.3 which is considered wide (as we need to accommodate a wheelchair which has to turn into doorways). An advantage of a very wide hallway is it gives room for extra furniture placement such as bookshelves, linen or other cupboards if needed. I don't see a linen cupboard or pantry cupboard in your plans. Something else to think about is future proofing - try to cover future possibilities with regard to function, as making structural or fittings changes later can be more expensive, and may come at a time when you can least afford it (e.g. injured, disabled, children, aging or other such people visiting your home). Lives change, sometimes over time, sometimes in an instant, and suddenly the doors are not wide enough (especially the toilet door!), or the walls are not strong enough for a weight-bearing rail, and a host of other things. We put 900cm doors as a minimum and it makes life a lot easier, including moving furniture in and out. Universal Design principles are worth a look. Sadly these considerations are currently considered special or optional, although there are moves to change that, so that builders and architects will consider these things as standard....See MoreHELP!
