How to install Kaboodle laundry cabinets on tiled wall?

I have renovated the laundry recently, including retiling the floors and single tile height around the walls. It might not have been the smartest decision. I am about to purchase Kaboodle cabinetry and install at flat to the wall. Now with the bottom wall tiles protruding how should I go about it?

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you @ironchieftain. Unfortunately we don't have a resident Bunnings D.I.Y. expert on the site today, but I'm sure of one the team will be happy to assist on the weekend.

 

In the meantime, let me tag a few helpful members to see if they can kick off the discussion and share their thoughts with you: @Jewelleryrescue@Nailbag@Adam_W.

 

Thanks for your patience,

We did the same but forgot to allow for the skirting tiles and the bottom cabinet door. So at the moment we don’t have a tile there

I'll buy the end wall panels, cut to the height of the tile and attach to the wall. We are suppose to use wall end panels to allow for uneven wall surfaces. The only issue the wall panel is 18mm and the width of the tile attached to the wall is around 14mm (not consistent due to variety in tile adhesive). I can either instead of standard wall panel buy a customer filler at 14mm or I still use 18mm and leave the gap of about 4mm where cabinet meets the tile.

Hi @ironchieftain 

 

Either use a jigsaw to check out the bottom sides of the cabinets the height and thickness of the single wall tile row or I would simply remove them. Much quicker and easier and any wall damage will never be seen.
