Hi Feimei, I think the cabinet measurement are usually taken after the tiling are done. Because the wall tiles and cement screed will take up some space. Are your wall tiles done up for the measurement? And the big pipe which you mention that take up 5ft, 5ft = around 1.5m, er... is the pipe really so big? For us, our kitchen pipe box up is around 10-11 inches (28cm). For the cabinet handles, it'll depends on the preference of you and hb. You might want to go to some showrooms to try out the feel of opening the cabinet with handles and those without, to see which one you guys prefer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
