Kitchen Cabinets
Kitchen cabinets are an item of your household that are permanent and will stay for a long time. Choose a cabinet that will last long, look beautiful and offer efficient storage. Be sure to check for a few things before you buy a kitchen cabinet. Make sure that the door hinges are sturdy and work well. Examine the wood carefully to make sure that it is not split, cracked or damaged in any way. Remember that solid wood is better than veneer and the finish should be applied to all surfaces that will be exposed to moisture. Screws and glue are good for holding the cabinet together, but watch out for staples.
Kitchen cabinets come in many sizes, shapes and materials, regardless of whether you’re looking for antique kitchen cabinets, corner kitchen cabinets, wall cabinets, pantry cabinets, cherry kitchen cabinets, or glass kitchen cabinets, do a little homework before you go shopping. Spend some time poring through design magazines and visiting a few stores to look at the various options and the associated costs before making a decision on what to buy. If you are choosing a natural wood kitchen cabinet you have a choice of several finishes which include stain, paint and glazing. You can also choose from distressing techniques for the surfaces that include rasping, antiquing and rub thru.
If you’re planning to buy a wooden kitchen cabinet, it’ll help you to know what types of wood are popular with cabinet makers and how they rate on functionality. Oak has been a favorite with cabinet makers, and maple is yet another hot favorite. Maple is popular simply because of its light weight and regular grain texture. Yellow birch is yet another popular wood species, and is similar to maple in its versatility and strength, not to mention the wide variety of colors that it comes in. Hickory is a nice hardwood that can be used for a good staining finish and pinewood is inexpensive but needs special care. It needs extra preparation and handling as it is easy prone to burns and scratches.

My grandmother is getting an addition added on to her kitchen/den area and I was looking to get her some simple timeless looking flat panel cabinet doors only. The measurements are 31*31 upper doors & 31*24 1/2. The measurements are for the length and width of two pairs of 16 cabinet doors. Thank you so much for your time and information.

I want to put cabinets in my laundry room. 93" wall to wall, want 30" high. Finish is not critical, and I'm looking for (solid wood) alternatives to new cabinets.
