    Hi all,
    So putting together my ikea kitchen and everything went perfect apart from the door covers for the washing machine and dryer.
    The hinges from IKEA are in a precut/ bored in different locations that where the hinges sit on the actual machine.
    So the question is
    Can I get flat hinges somewhere to replace the ikea hinge and if so which ones?
    Or ideally can I go somewhere with the door and get it bored out to fit the ikea hinges? If so where? I'm based in swords but can travel anywhere within reason.

    If the spaces bored for the hinges are circular, then you could probably do it with a forstner bit and some care.

    The ikea integrated washing machine even comes with a forstner bit for that very purpose! Hinge location on the machine (whirlpool) is different to standard cabinet.
