Q: How do I know if my ceilings are too high for cabinet toppers?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll have to make a judgment call. Kitchen ceilings between 8 and 12 feet high typically offer the best-case installations for a new row of cabinets or shelves that will fill the gap. By the time your ceiling reaches 15 feet or higher, as they often do in open floor plans, it&rsquo;s time to embrace the space and consider toppers that don&rsquo;t have to reach all the way to the ceiling. You can still get plenty of extra storage with one of our steps above.</p></div>

Q: Can you paint bathroom cabinets without sanding?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t want to sand your bathroom cabinets before painting, it&rsquo;s possible to make it work. However, sanding the cabinets for a long-lasting paint job is always best. Make sure your cabinets are in good shape, choose high-quality paint, and use a deglosser. The deglosser strips the paint, varnish, or stain from the cabinets to give you a clean slate to work from.</p></div>

Q: What is the best thickness for shelving?

• <div><p>For most purposes, you should go with wood that&rsquo;s at least 3/4-inch thick for DIY closet shelves. This is the standard thickness for solid wood or MDF shelving and should be able to hold a good amount of weight (around 80 pounds for MDF and 130 pounds for plywood). If you&rsquo;re storing tools, camera equipment, or other heavier items, you can go up to 1 1/4-inch thickness for maximum strength and durability.</p></div>

Rico did a wonderful job and he made everything work great. He had a universal control which we bought from him and he programed for us our equipment. He had to spend some extra time and effort making things work with our receiver but he did it and it works great.
