How would you model this?

Hi Matadem, it looks like the opening there is because these 2 pieces are separate objects and not joined together:





If you join those together so they are connected then fillet will be able to trim the upper surface instead of opening up a hole.

I've attached a fixed version that is joined, if you repeat the fillet here you shouldn't get that hole:
