What is the difference between End Panels A and B?

[prosonman]

Hi,

Can someone explain the difference between the two types of Larder End Panels available from B&Q, other than the price?

End Panel A = £45
End Panel B = £30

Both Size's are 570mm x 2100mm x 18mm

One is a cam lock type fixing

Thanks for the explanation, not sure why they would bother making two versions when everything else they make appears to be Cam Lock.

the camlock one is used if you are building it into a cabinet during assembly. The plain one is if you want to fix it to the side of a cabinet for decorative effect.

Not so common with plain white, but often done if you have a woodgrain or special colour kitchen and the side of the cab is visible.

for example on the end of this wall unit

Thanks JohnD, I understand now.

Actually, I'm not so sure about that. John could well be right, but when you read the desciptions of both panels, they same the same thing, just in a different way. As confirmed by someone elses perplexing comments. B&Q should be able to expain the difference, but I wouldn't guarantee it.

Just in case anyone else is stood in B&Q googling this wondering which one to buy......

Pack A is for a double oven, Pack B is for a full length fridge freezer
