Q: Does a medicine cabinet add value to your home?

• <div><p>A medicine cabinet on its own won&rsquo;t add a lot of value, but is in general considered to be a good feature to have. Since any added storage is desirable, a medicine cabinet can improve resale value some. Making your bathroom more functional is appealing to buyers if you&rsquo;re looking to sell your home.</p></div>

Q: How many coats of paint should you do on cabinets?

• <div><p>Most cabinets need two to three coats of paint, though the exact number depends on several factors. Use one or two coats of primer and one to three coats of paint. Thick, high-quality paint requires fewer coats, as does paint applied over existing paint that's in good condition. However, if painting a lighter color over an existing dark color, you'll need more coats.</p></div>

Q: What are the differences between MDF and solid wood?

• <div><p>When comparing wood versus MDF, there are some widespread misconceptions that solid wood is more reliable and durable. Despite this common belief, wood isn't always a superior choice and MDF may be a better building material choice in some cases. Here are some examples:</p><ul><li><p>MDF is more affordable than wood. You can buy MDF for as low as one-quarter of the wood price.</p></li><li><p>MDF is a smooth surface with no knots or woodgrain, which makes it easier to finish and cut with a saw. </p></li><li><p>MDF is a standard choice for shelving and trim.</p></li><li><p>Unlike MDF, solid wood isn't the best option for cabinets or drawers. It can shrink, crack, or bend in response to changes in temperature and humidity, while MDF has a high moisture and fire resistance level and is less likely to break or warp.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What color should I have my cabinets painted?

• <div><p>With so many <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/kitchen-cabinet-colors.htm">color choices for cabinets</a>, you have many different ways to bring personality to your kitchen (or any other room where you are updating your cabinets). The color you choose to paint your cabinets should reflect your personal style but can also match existing wall colors or appliances. Some colors to choose from include:</p><ul><li><p>White</p></li><li><p>Navy</p></li><li><p>Grey</p></li><li><p>Green</p></li><li><p>Taupe</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How do you adjust the tension on self-closing cabinet hinges?

• <div><p>To adjust the tension on self-closing cabinet hinges, locate the adjustment screws on the hinge. Typically, there are two screws: one for vertical and one for horizontal adjustments. Grab a screwdriver to adjust the tension screw. You must turn it clockwise to increase tension or counterclockwise to decrease it. Make minor adjustments and test the door's movement until it closes smoothly and securely.</p></div>

Last fall we began looking to replace our kitchen cupboards and cabinets. After checking with several large suppliers, we found that either we didn't like the material they used or they were unable to make the large cabinets that we wanted. North Country Millworks in Massena N.Y. hand crafted...

Jim suggested that we install lighting inside the cabinets which turned out to be a great bonus. When a door is opened, the lights come on and everything can be seen. Since the pantry cabinets are floor to ceiling, he constructed oversize doors so large items on the top and bottom shelves are...

Have spent $16,500 on custom cabinetry where the cabinet maker has failed to correct two errors in the design, construction and installation of cabinets to meet requirements established in his own drawings. Very rude and unprofessional. I would not recommend using this firm.
