I like the seamless look of having the door integrated with the rest of the cabinetry, but at every turn people want to tell you it can't be done. I think builders generally like to err on the side of caution and if there's any chance something might go wrong at their expense, they will try their hardest to avoid it (or charge you a fortune to cover their losses if it does go wrong). In my case I think we're just going to tuck the door over in the far corner of our kitchen so it is not 'part' of the kitchen, and go with a cavity slider... seems like the easiest solution for us, and given everything in the house seems to have been upgraded I think I'm going to have to let at least one thing go through as standard My building thread: https://forum.homeone.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=56583&start=120 Re: Pantry Door 12Sep 18, 2012 12:25 pm xxkatxx CuttingEdge- When you say to have the door swung separately of the cabinet does that mean to make use of the brick wall next to it? Is it easy to have a normal door with the same finish as the cabinets? Never seen that done so not quite sure how it would look :s Yes an inward swinging door needs to be hinged from the brick wall or floor/ceiling.

Opens out only. Doesnt really help as the OP wants the door swung inwards. I also would be concerned about the number of hinges for such a wide door. I put 5 hinges on a door 500x2300. A door 750x2300 has 1.5 times the material/weight and should have atleast 7 hinges. Dont stress the hinges will just sag over time and will eventually need replacing.
