The day they built the cabinets, one of the largest cabinets areas called for two side by side sliding cabinet doors to be installed with recessed hinges. This was so as you move the sliding doors left and right you don't take off your fingers as the doors pass over each other. This was made clear to Ken from day one. The disappointment came in that they built the doors in such a way that we only had 17 inches of depth. This was disappointing simply because Ken was astute enough to know that to get the 19 inches of depth, you have to move the sliding doors out a few inches and he pointed this out from day one. We knew that as well, but what they built was not what got delivered on that large portion of the cabinet. We called Ken back to the site whereupon he was not happy that we didn't seem to understand that when his schematic says, and quot;20 inch deep cabinets', we should understand that with sliding doors, you're going to lose some inches!?. I looked him in the eye and asked him point blank, and quot;then what did you think my drawing to you says when it clearly stated that you need and quot;19 inches of clear depth in the cabinet?and quot; I am in the construction business and clearly knew that he was well aware that there isn't too many ways to interpret what I had sent him in my drawing. I asked him, then what does and quot;clear depthand quot; mean to you? He gives me a puzzled look! I pointed out that his schematic that says and quot;20 inch deep cabinetsand quot; could be easily interpreted that it is 20 inches depthand quot; but the fact is my drawing was much clearer than his. In any event I asked him if this had ever happened and he told me this was the first time(?) Obviously, this was an issue, but not trying to be a jerk, we both looked at the door and came to a rather inventive and easy solution to fix the issue. Another point was they did not install the hidden hinges, so he agreed they would come back and rebuild the front doors based on the way we both could see it could be fixed. He called us back with a set-up date,then had to call and cancel that and that was the last we heard from garage Interiors again. I called him, sent emails, etc. No response. The sad fact is a buddy of mine and I rebuilt the doors and they work great now, took us maybe a couple of hours. This is not how you run a business.
"Ten years in business and I wish I could say every job has worked out perfect. This one did not. (removed member name) provided an sketch of his cabinets. From there I meet with wife to discuss build I tried to make suggestions on proper depth of cabinets. (removed member name) did not want the depths to be any larger. After the meeting I provided professional cad drawings which (removed member name) approved via email. Which I'd have keeled all records of this build. We built the cabinets to those specifications that were approved by (removed member name). After competition of install they approved the build and paid for the work. It was only after they started to load the cabinets did they realize their supplied cabinet depth were too short. They demanded that I come over and fix at no cost. At that time of our meeting I realized this is a situation that would not end well. The (removed member name) took no responsibilities for their part and complained that their items got dirty in the garage due to the construction work. From there I knew this couple was quite dysfunctional and that at this point it was not in the companies best interest to provide any more services. Lesson to learned. 1. Meet with both decision makers at the same time 2. Discuss proper cabinet build process and depth requirement 3. If a red flag goes off because client says they have multiple issues with contractors. Reconsider the the work. A few other note from this client: At time of install the garage was to be cleared for the construction to begin. The (removed member name) did not do as requested and the garage was full of items giving us very little working room.They then requested that we just work around their items andIt was almost impossible to do so. The install crew worked as diligently as possible but were routinely stopped by (removed member name) double checking the work and making changes to the scope of work. The crew politely made changes as needed."
