Hello everyone, I am the reliable fifth senior brother of the Wuwei family.
had a chat yesterday:
Cabinets should be the main part of decoration. Customized cabinets can easily cost tens of thousands, so everyone must learn a few more knowledge points to avoid pitfalls.
A whole-house customization shop I met before required that the materials used were sandwich panel paint.
The price is very cheap, but the glue in the sandwich panel has an impact on the body. Once the paint is worn away, the sandwich panel will swell when exposed to water. The general size of
cabinets is fixed, with a height of 75-80 cm and a width of 60 cm.
Therefore, if you want to buy under-counter basins, dishwashers, food waste disposers , kitchen hot water, etc., you must buy them first. Otherwise,
may not be able to fit properly, or it may not be repairable after installation, or there may be a small gap between the two machines.
It is good to use stone or steel for the upper roof. Steel is easier to take care of. Remember to leave a water-proof edge.
Don’t be too cheap with hardware. It’s best not to buy something that is too exaggerated. It will be difficult to clean, and the protruding hardware is easy to bump. How does
avoid being passively trapped in unknown places?
Before finalizing the design, you can think clearly about the areas to be considered and then negotiate an all-inclusive price. From
onwards, everything will strictly follow the standards!
For example, if you customize a cabinet, you must point it out if something goes wrong. You cannot take care of the face of the decorator.
After all, the price is often measured in tens of thousands now, and no one’s money comes from a flood of money.
When decorating and making cabinets, I have used three types of countertops.
The first one was used more than ten years ago. I don’t know whether it was resin or artificial marble . After using it for a while, the countertop actually cracked.
The second type is ceramic tile countertops, which are not small cement tiles. Instead, the countertops are directly made of two layers of one-meter-two-meter-long ceramic tiles. The joints are difficult to deal with, and the countertops are prone to stains.
now uses gray quartz stone , and there is no problem except for the seams.
No matter what material I choose for my countertop, I choose a design with unequal heights. It is super easy to use and I don’t have to worry about back pain.
I would like to add that cabinets made of stainless steel and are afraid of acidity.
A little coke or coffee tea will destroy the protective wall if left for a long time. Zhihu has many similar stainless steel countertops , and common sense on cup use. You can check it yourself.
In addition, the bulging of stainless steel is entirely a matter of quality and workmanship.
I can put all kinds of high-temperature pots in my house directly, chop bones, put them in the oven and just take them out of the baking pan, and there will never be any deformation.
Also, I would like to remind everyone: when it comes to buying cabinets, you can only have a say if you use them yourself, so don’t listen to the sales bragging~
Let’s talk in the comment area, how did you choose the cabinets?
