Why do case makers put the doors on the front the wrong way

hyperst · 1 Jun 2012 at 17:02

Why do they do that, my fractal xl door on the front only opens to the left, but the left side of the case is on my right which make it difficult to use the front panel while at the desk, also notice other manufacturers do this, just looking at the Bitfenix cases and they do the same, would be better if the option to change was there, as especially with a windowed case it will be on your right side usually.

edit, oops, if a mod see's this I meant to put it in case central, not project logs.

It's such an obvious mistake to make, I just don't understand, I am now considering removing my front door, but it will look a little weird

I'm so tempted to remove it from the xl, I have seen someones without the door and it looks a little strange, I was thinking of remodeling the front (the edges would need removing) and cover it in carbon fibre wrap

Yeah you are right it was posted in the wrong section

But, I was thinking of chopping the front of my case up, I want a bay res and want to see it, plus my nice fan controller is being hidden
