X17 Dishwashers - Finished Back in Island

[PitMan71]

How do I add a finished back on a DW in an island? In X16 that wasn't an issue. Now there is a hole on the rear of the island where the DW is. Im sure there is a solution, I just don't know what it is.

TIA.

Shane,

 

a) you could create your DW / cabinet combo in an X16 plan and copy/paste it forward into your X17 plan (old school).

 

b)  you can modify a base cabinet to show back panel only.  Here, below, I show a base cabinet where I have turned off toe kick, done an appliance opening for the front face, and for the left and right panels I have selected "none."  I would think this would work for your situation.

here's the result of b) above:

I will give that shot. Thanks.

You don't have to do it in X16, you can place a dishwasher in a cabinet if the diswasher is set to inserts into cabinet front in the Options panel of the symbol

Yeah, that's what I meant.

Thanks for this information. I tried this and it stuck back of the DW on the front of the cabinet so its sticks out onto the floor. I know I am missing something.... is there a setting somewhere to get it to recess into the cabinet?
