Hiya,

I fitted a built-in washing machine for my girlfiend at the weekend, all went well apart from when i went to put the cupboard door back on. The hinge fixings are about 4cm futher apart on the door than on the new washer. If i drilled a new hole in the door for the bracket it would overlap the existing hole and cause problems with fixing the bracket.

Any suggestions on this? I dont really want to do any risky door drilling as it's a rented property and i'm quite good at turning little problems in to big ones!! Are there any offset brakets that are designed for this problem? Has the problem been caused by a metric/ imperial mix-up?

Any help much appreciated!!
