Dishwasher shutter left incomplete by designer....need help with desig

3 months ago

Hi everyone....I acquired a built-in dishwasher, but despite giving it to my designer before making the cabinets, he neglected to include it in the design and didn't make a shutter for it ...I am left without the shutter and the dishwasher looks protruding from other cabinets. Is it possible to use an acrylic glass shutter to cover the dishwasher so that it doesn't look bulky? Could you please help me find a solution?

    Hi Prathi, It looks like the designer has not considered the depth of the dishwasher, and hence it's protruding out. Due to this technical error, the shutter placed over it will protrude out further creating an offset which will look ugly and also will spoil your edges under the counter. The only possible solution is to extend the platform (just the dishwasher area) and cover the dishwasher from top and then encapsulation of dishwasher with a shutter. See the sketch as follows in plan form.
