Cabinet Making questions, answered by experts

Solid wood is a durable and attractive option for cabinet doors that holds up well against a small amount of moisture. However, solid wood doors will expand and contract, meaning upkeep will be necessary if painted. Particleboard with veneer cabinet doors are cost-effective and can be attractive. MDF cabinet doors offer excellent and predictable workability features. However, both of those options are vulnerable to damage if water finds its way through the veneer or paint finish. 

The most common cabinet overlay size is ½ inch for a partial overlay or 1 ¼ inch for a full overlay.

Careful measurement is crucial—measure multiple times and account for hardware thickness, seasonal wood movement, and clearance requirements. Test-fit components before final assembly, and consider building one drawer as a prototype before cutting materials for multiple units.

Hardwoods such as cherry, walnut, and maple are excellent options for building cabinet drawers. These are exceptionally durable woods that can withstand the wear and tear of daily use. Additionally, plywood is a common choice for drawer bottoms and sides as it is stable, cost-effective, and available in various thicknesses. Ultimately, the choice of wood depends on your preferences, budget, and the overall aesthetic you want for your cabinet drawers.

You can replace drawers in existing cabinets by repurchasing the same model, if only replacing broken drawers, or replace them altogether to give your kitchen a whole new look. Be sure to measure the exact dimensions of each drawer to ensure the new set will fit correctly. You should also replace existing drawers with new ones with the same type of drawer slides for easy installation.
