Hi,

Just came across the site at the perfect time. We just installed windows after a ton of shipping and ordering problems into a new kitchen remodel. We will have very limited space for outlets above the countertop (3-4" max)...

Any suggestions?

Thanks--

Jess

How about a hardwired power strip? They are like a series of outlets running along a single channel.

Welcome Jess! Glad you joined us!

Yep, Eva's got it....here's another one: Plugmold. Alot of people have used it under the wall cabinets instead of wall outlets as well. I understand that it can be tricky to work with as there isn't alot of room for wiggling and the spacing is pretty tight, but it's not impossible. Are you DIY, or do you have a contractor?

And what's your doorstyle? Inquiring minds want to know! Welcome to the Fansite!

We're doing the Hallarum cabinets. Does anyone have a pic of installed plugmold outlets? It's pretty hard to get a good visual of how they look from the websites. We're DIY as well...

Thanks!
