Project Details

Design

This project warranted the design of three separate cabinets. My client wanted one to conceal her electrical panel, another for her vacuum and miscellaneous storage, and another as a pantry to store cereal, canned goods, and the like.

My client wanted these cabinets made of melamine for a hard, rigid, and cleanable surface, as well as to match her other white furniture. I also planned to use soft closing hinges, to make the cabinet doors even more nice.

Delivery and Installation

It was a bit tricky to deliver the vacuum cabinet. The malamine made it very heavy and it was quite wide, it just about fit into my truck. Before transporting it, I took off the doors and stored them separately then wrapped it all in bubble wrap to make sure nothing got damaged.

Loading the vacuum cabinet

In order to fit the vacuum cabinet, as planned, I had to cut off the trim around where the cabinet would sit. Then, after setting it in place, I screwed it into the walls in various places to keep it nice and sturdy. As this cabinet was also for my clients Dyson vacuum, I installed the charging station as well.
