How to Fit Kitchen End Panels for a Built-In Finish

End panels hide the working parts

End panels make kitchen runs, islands and appliance gaps look intentional. They need to line up with the cabinet face, sit neatly to the floor and avoid blocking access to services.

Method

• Check whether the panel should finish flush with the door, carcass or worktop overhang.
• Scribe to uneven walls or floors if needed.
• Clamp before fixing so the face stays aligned.
• Use hidden fixings where possible.

Safety note

Check for pipes and cables before drilling through cabinet sides or walls.
