IKEA have some good products such as:
- their METOD range of kitchen cabinets, the carcass of which is also suitable as a base cabinet in the bathroom, bedroom, study, lounge, rumpus to name a few applications. https://www.ikea.com/au/en/search/products/?q=metod%20base%20cabinet
- The UTRUSTA range of hardware includes a push to open door opener which removes the need for door nobs and handles for a cleaner door panel. https://www.ikea.com/au/en/p/utrusta-push-opener-50230225
Unfortunately whenever you decide to use double doors, such as with the wider cabinets, the metal bracket (a pressed c section) which holds the cabinet sides together and provides a suitable mount for the bench top prevents mounting of the push to open hardware in the most logical location near the bench top where the door will be pressed.
The attached STL provides a simple solution which is quick and easy to print, and easy to install.
- No rafts or supports required.
- Tested with PLA and PETG. I made working prototypes in PLA while refining the design and printed the final run of 12 in PETG with 0.2 layer height, all perimeters/skins set to 3 layers, and 15% gyroid infill.
- The IKEA supplied short silver screw (designed for the 5mm diameter pre drilled holes in the cabinets) fastens the IKEA supplied base plate to the printed mount at the cam end from the flat side as per photo below.
- The cam is gently eased into the pressed metal c section at 45 degrees to the track and slid to the correct location, then turned to 90 degrees to lock position.
- A single fastening screw is then used at the back of the bracket to anchor the printed mount to the bench top. You will need a longer screw than supplied by IKEA but short enough not to go through the bench top.
- Clip in the push to open mechanism and adjust as per standard IKEA instructions.
The following images show the positioning of the brackets (in this case two brackets for a double door) and then the push to open openers (last photo) looking up from underneath at the front edge of the bench top at the center of the cabinet.
