How to Increase the Service Life Of Cabinet

Of all the customized cabinets in the whole house, the selection, design and production requirements for kitchen cabinets are the highest, because the kitchen environment is easy to damp, the lampblack is heavy, and the general space is not large.  If the material selection is not good, cabinets are easily scrapped.  And if the design is not good, not only the space is not used well, the cooking is also become a tired thing.

Today, Rebon  came to talk with you about what is affecting the service life of custom cabinets.

The first reaction of many friends is cabinet material, countertop and door panel. In fact, besides these factors many small details are also very important, such as hinges, drawer slide, basket, toe kick and other hardware accessories.

First, let's talk about the materials of cabinets, doors and countertops. For custom kitchen cabinets, countertops are usually made of quartz, marble, granite, but rarely wooden countertops, such as refractory boards, which are prone to cracking, mildew, dirt and cleaning. We also think metals are not recommended as countertops, such as stainless steel, which is easy to scratch.  Choose stone countertop is good, we mostly suggest our customer choose quartz stone, it's stain-resistant, good quality, and easy to clean.

As for cabinet carcass material, moisture-proof board is a good choose. Door panels can choose from UV, PVC and lacquer. These materials are stain-resistant and easy to clean.  This is a key point to pay attention when selecting the kitchen cabinet materials. If the materials are well selected, the kitchen cabinet will last for a long time.

Let's talk about the cabinet hardware accessories that people are easily neglect. If you think they will not affect the service life of the cabinet, that's a mistake.  Take an example to show you:

A custom-made kitchen cabinet made by an owner has good material for carcass,door and countertop, it's environmental protection, beautiful. However, the cabinet hardware is ignored. The door hinges are made of ordinary stainless steel, and the drawer slide rails are made of ordinary quality.  The result is that the hinges are exposed to moisture, causing rust, everytime he open and close the cabinet it'll make terribel noisy.  And the slide rail quality is too poor, causing the cabinet drawer to pull and close very inconvenient.  Even the lift-up cabinet cannot be opened because the terrible hardware.

So if you want to use custom cabinets for a long time, you must first choose the right materials, then pay attention to the choice of cabinet hardware, and finally find the right company or brand to avoid technical problems.
