I am about to fit the plinth in my kitchen.
The dishwasher is next to the washing machine and they are integrated (So they do not have housings).
They are next to a corner with a cabinet.
On one side of the appliances I’ll just fasten the plinth with the provided clips onto the unit legs, but as there are no units, and therefore no legs on the other side of the two appliances I do not know what to clip them onto.
How do I fasten the plinth to these two appliances?
Is there any special “plinth-clips” to connect appliances and plinth with, and if so, where do I get them?
-I know that I need to cut the plinth where it “meets” the dishwasher door” in order to allow this to open.
Thanks for your help!

I suppose you just want a splash back off the floor but that will trap your appliances and you cant fix a plinth to your appliances because of their vibration.
Have you thought about integrated appliances? That would achieve the same results but a lot tidier.

You don't have plinths for these appliances most of them stand free and sit directly on to the floor they also vibrate, the plinth is to cover the gap left at the bottom of the base unit when you adjust the legs usually 6 inches so unless you want your cups etc dancing around every time your washer spins.... don't fix a plinth on it!

USUALLY YOU DON'T PUT A PLINTH IN FRONT OF APPLIANCES BUT IF YOU WANT YOU CAN BUY SOME DOUBLE SIDED ADHESIVE TAPE AND STICK IT ON TO THE APPLIANCE.another METHOD IS TO CUT THE PLINTH VERY SLIGHTLY LARGER THAN THE AREA THAT YOU ARE TRYING TO COVER ANR WEDGE THE PLINTH IN TO POSITION.to ENSURE CORRECT FIT YOU CAN STICK TWO SMALL PIECES OF WOOD (USING THE SAME TAPE) TO THE INSIDE OF THE PLINTH IF IT'S NECESSARY TO ALIGN THE BOTH THE UNIT AND THE APPLIANCE PLINTHS

Fit either a bracket at the end you are having difficulty with. This could be a piece of wood or a metal angle bracket. not quite sure what you have on the un-fixable side but one of these methods should surely work.

There were so many woodworking plans with this collection and you will not believe this but there are over thousands plans in the one package deal. Go here https://tr.im/gmxu8
This is really something to find that many all together. For someone like me who is just really starting to get involved with woodworking this was like letting me loose in a candy store and telling me I could have anything I wanted. That was my dream when I was a kid.
