Kitchen Furniture

Cupboards
Cupboards that are used in kitchens have specific sizes. That is because kitchen machinery have their standard sizes. Therefore a two-sided cupboard in the kitchen for instance is usually 80cm in width. That does not actually mean that this is the only size possible. Measures may vary from wall to wall but they have to be suited and therefore there are pre-established sizes for kitchen cupboards. Other cupboards that are used in living-rooms for instance have no specific sizes and may vary also.

A simple kitchen cupboard is usually quadrangular and in specific sizes and therefore needs only four sides and backside produced. Sides are cut into right size and bored. If solid-wood is used then the process is the same as with solid-wooden TV-tables - neccessary milling is done and neccessary holes are bored and after that wanted treatment is used. If chipboard is used then the process is same as with TV-tables. Details are cut into a right size and then sides are glued.

Doors
To give the kitchen-furniture new look you do not have to necessarily buy all new furniture but one possibility is change only the doors. It is possible if furniture is not damaged of humidity or fat.
As kitchen-furniture doors are mainly simple plates it is also possible to use most different materials.
There are used:

solid wood

plywood

mdf-board

laminate

Some examples:

Size of the kitchen door depends on the size of cupboard size. Kitchen doors sizes are mostly made by standards but that does not mean that that one cannot use other sizes.
Process and length of the process depends on the material of the door and of what kind of touching is used. The longest but of best quality is door made of solid wood that is painted or some other way treated. However most commonly used is MDF-board that is painted at the end. Paint is layered at least twice. Painting is done in special colouring and heating chambers to achieve extra quality. These two above mentioned options are not the quickest possibility, with all the treatment these take around 6 to 8 hours or sometimes even longer. Still the quickest possibility is to use chipboard as it practically needs only to be cut.
