The perfect kitchen is, where it is nice to cook and spend time with loved ones, and all items have their place. In such a room, cleaning passes in minutes - everything is at hand. A good owner is quite suites with a maximum of furniture - minimum, and there is enough space for everything. The secret is simple - the kitchen cabinets are made taking into account the layout of space. Built-in furniture by individual order is expensive, the purchase will rarely rise perfectly. But it is not difficult to master the process of assembling the kitchen cabinet for dishes.

Preparatory stage of work
Before making a kitchen cabinet with your own hands, it is worth weighing everything to the perspective.
1. If the kitchen is fully equipped, and it urgently needed one corner kitchen cabinet between two others, the selection of the door is important. Dimensions are compared with adjacent cabinets. To select the material under the overall facade, do the door from the matte glass in the color of other room materials. It can be done in the frame and consolidate from above the piano loop - the simplest option.
2. Sometimes it makes sense to carry out a partial restoration of built-in furniture in the kitchen - add a couple of missing cabinets with simultaneous replacement of the facade. It is very profitable when the hull is reliable, it remains only to update the surfaces. Replaced not only doors - acrylic countertop will combine all lower cabinets into a single cutting surface. Stuffing shelves inside will remain the same, very comfortable and habitual. Such a cuisine update will cost three times cheaper.
3. The kitchen cabinet may urgently need and as a disguise for not aesthetic equipment - a gas meter, a mini-boiler or corrugation for exhaust. The top cabinets are ideal for this suitable. The free space of such a decorative case is used rationally, supplying the shelf or drawers for the tool. The top cover for this design will not need - there must be pipes. Additional crossbar at the door is needed for fixing the stiffness of the cabinet.
4. An important point that scares newcomers at the initial stage of work is the sawing of the material. Make it perfect at home is impossible, you need a special tool, better machine. The nearest carpentry shop in the drawings for a small fee will make the perfect cutting, prepare holes, it will process the edges and will even issue a tremble. Sometimes the sawing is offered directly at the building store. You will save a bunch of time and strength, but get a lot of pleasure from perfect details to update your kitchen.
What materials are used for homemade kitchen cabinet
To make a kitchen cabinet with your own hands, you can use different materials.
1. Furniture frame is usually done from chipboard (wood-chip). For the kitchen it is advisable to take moisture-resistant material of an increased density of 16-18 mm. For a tabletop, only chipboard is 3.2 mm with a washing surface and trembling.
2. Under the facade or the cabinet doors use veneer, natural or synthetic. Fit laminate and melamine. Laminate - protective coating for chipboard and fiberboard.
3. MDF qualitative than chipboard, material is compressed glue-based wood dust. It is more expensive and stronger wood and synthetic analogues, but in the production of furniture it is most plastic, it can be bent. MDF happens with a matte, varnish and laminated front surface.
4. The most expensive material is a natural tree or an array. It is used for the door of the cabinet. For cheaper and relief from it, they make the door frame, and in the center - veneer, decorative plywood. The most expensive is the mosaic web marquetry from natural wood, which is sometimes inserted into the frame of the door as a separate panel. The tree is sensitive to temperature drops and high humidity, but has excellent decorative properties. It is protected by treatment with impregnations or covered with a special water-repellent varnish.
5. Multiplex - modern material based on plywood, where wood is glued in different direction by layers. It is not deformed and not so afraid of moisture.
6. Plywood is of different quality and thickness. It is perfect for interior shelves, on the back wall and at the bottom of the drawers. This is the cheapest material, but it can also be additionally treated for moisture resistance of greater attractiveness. If the plywood is not visible - this makes no sense. On the back wall of enough press cardboard.
7. High strength thick glass is also suitable for the shelves and kitchen cabinet doors. It looks beautiful in the kitchen and stained glass in the doors. The edges after cutting should be sashbars, and the glass is conveniently mounted in a wooden or plastic frame.
8. Modern synthetic materials based on acrylic or plastic are suitable as an additional finish, but not as the main material. Fiberboard on 5 mm laminate and better use more for the walls of the cabinet.
9. If there is a desire to give the kitchen a particularly respectable view - order all the doors from the same array or with inserts from a veneer in a joinery workshop. Oak, walnut, ash - for every taste, they can be painted by a vessel in the desired color, for example, under the red tree. There is another way - an elevating varnish, which is applied by several layers.
Photo of kitchen cabinets will be prompted which option is the most suitable design. When selecting the facade material on the cabinet kitchen attached or a kitchen outdoor wardrobe, it is important to consider the overall style of the room. Selectable color should be harmonized with the color range of the interior and the rest of the furniture. Only after the choice is made in favor of materials for self-making cabinet or general restoration, they can be purchased.
Tip: If you restrict ourselves to the assembly of one kitchen cabinet, it is easier to purchase trimming there in the joinery workshop - they are twice as cheaper. By providing the drawings for the kitchen cabinet with their own hands, it is easier to order them the whole kit for the assembly in the finished form.
Preparing a drawing for a kitchen cabinet
If you have never come to make accurate drawings for cabinet furniture, it is enough to view ready-made - in catalogs, books, allowances or on the Internet.
1. Having understood with the basics, the easiest way to repeat the appropriate option with the adjustment of its sizes. The drawing is not a drawing, but a simple scheme, there is no need to be an artist. It is enough to take a sheet of paper, a triangle, pencil and make your own version according to the sample, and then fix the draft after the marks.
2. In the drawings, the accuracy of measurements and the correspondence of each surface is very important. All measurements are indicated in millimeters. If the wardrobe is inserted between others, then make sure that the opening door will be enough space. It is better to do with the error in minus, which is re-alone to redo after steaming and the assembly due to the extra 2-3 mm.
3. The perfect drawing is with an accurate indication of the size of each part, their number and total sketch. Parallel surfaces must be absolutely the same, they do not need to be drawn separately. But if they are made of different material, for example, the lid and the bottom, then consider the difference in the thickness, make new measurements. Remember that you need to take into account the thickness of the panel with a dusting, otherwise the overall dimensions may be different.
4. When domestic sawing, accuracy is especially important, since the tool setting is raised and will give a small difference. But it is precisely enough that the assembled cabinet does not fit into his niche, or the door will strengthen the sidewall of the neighboring cabinet and will not open. The door is made by 4-5 mm less, which will provide free opening.
5. Consider the assembly method - the upper and lower surfaces will be between the sidewalls or vice versa, the sidewalls on top and bottom will be plugged. See how finished cabinets are mounted. Usually sidewalls outside, and horizontal inside, but there may be options. The thickness of the rear wall will affect how much the cabinet will be released.
6. If it is necessary to assemble a floor, not a kitchen cabinet, then the sidewalls will perform the function of the legs. In this case, the bottom surface is mounted slightly above the level of sidewall, taking into account the irregularities of the floor. It is better to raise the lower shelf by 5-6 cm above so that with the possible flooding of the kitchen, the water did not hit the shelves. The emptiness is better to close the base mounted between the sidewalls. The perfect option is when all the furniture for the kitchen and the bathroom is mounted, regardless of the lower or top plane.
7. For floor kitchen cabinet, you will need a working surface or a countertop if the product is at the table level. Higher wardrobe without a worktop involves a greater number of shelves. Internal shelves should be slightly shorter niza so that the door is tightly closed without a knock.
8. The last thing you need to consider is the depth of kitchen cabinets. If the product is assembled in one copy, complementing other furniture, then companyon wardrobes are made. The remaining sizes of kitchen cabinets depend on space for accommodation.
9. An old way to make kitchen furniture kitchen furniture assigned a wooden frame. Today, all cabinet furniture is collected according to the general scheme, taking into account the design options of the upper or lower position of the placement. These are legs, hinges for fastening, the number of shelves inside, the handles upper or lower - that's the whole difference.
10. In single products, the height of the kitchen cabinets is combined with the marking of other items - a gas stove, a table or refrigerator. In a narrow niche between the washing and stove, you can put a retractable cabinet on the rollers used as a bar or storage for everyday life.
11. The last moment is accessories. The method of fastening the door without distortion and the density of its adjacent to a greater extent affects common aesthetics than the material used. Think out what the door mounting mechanism and its handle are with one hole or two. Do not forget about mounted loops for mounting on the wall. If there are 2 cabinets - outdoor and mounted on each other, the handles will be mounted in different angles: upper or lower. All metal details will help to choose a consultant in the fittings department.
Tip: If in the manufacture of the cabinet, impregnation will be used, glue, varnish other chemical fluids, it is important to choose them correctly. A cheap varnish can be sticky and weathered for years, and bread type products or honey quickly absorb other smells and become unsuitable.
These recommendations to the experimental master will seem to be azami, but for a beginner in such a case any advice is invaluable. To avoid unwanted alterations and defects at the finished product, it is important to consider all these moments. Constructive deviations even at 2 mm should be reflected in the sketch. Only after everything is thought out, is simulated and taken into account, proceed to sawing materials or order ready-made details. All the marks in cutting are made only with a pencil from the inside, since the marker, handle or felt-tipper leave the caustic trail on the front surface.
Instruments
When buying materials and prepare all components, it is important to consider all expenses. If there is a complete set of tools - you can cut the sawing yourself. In the absence of 1-2 devices, it is enough to rent them for rent, so it is necessary to decide on the work date. If there are no equipment - trust it by specialists of a sawing workshop or carpentry workshop, and make an assembly yourself.
Required tools and accessories:
1. Milling mill with a straight groove milling and nozzle for sampling is consumed under mounted loops, a screwdriver, a drill with a round nozzle or drill for bitch, a regular drill and screwdriver, a stapler with brackets for mounting the back wall, a universal level.
2. Hidden loops for the door, metal corners for the cabinet hanging, pins, ducts, confirmates and plugs, screws, fixtures or planks and glue.
Assembly process
1. Place all sliced \u200b\u200band numbered items in the order in which they will be collected. Roof, bottom, side walls and fasteners for pull-out shelves will be needed first. Shelves and door can still be postponed. Additionally, I celebrate the arrows on the inner surface, which surface to be mounted to not confuse. Drill the holes under the shelter.
2. On the door and one inner surface before mounting, drill holes for mounted loops. It is important to place everything and make sure that the door does not hide and closed tightly. For internal holes, use a round mill or special nozzle on a drill. The newcomer can use the most primitive and archaic version of the attachment of the mounted door - on a piano loop.
3. The wardrobe is easier to assemble on the dust connections. It will take a flat milling cutter for cutting grooves, where to glimmer flat ducks. They will scatter from glue, ensuring a solid connection, and they themselves will not be visible. The cutter will give high-quality grooves, and the pasted ducks additionally better to score. Further, the wanking must enter the same hole made in the perpendicular plane. We speak well between the wrenches. This is the assembly of the main framework. Additionally, you can fix confirmates and close the plug. As a last resort, it is additionally copped with nails.
4. The foundation of the cabinet is ready, further freamed by the rear wall, which will give the stiffness of the structure, is the easiest - the stapler. If, by the idea, the hinged cabinet should be backlighting - prepare holes for LEDs. Next, fasten the rear wall of plywood or press cardboard. It will not give the design to shift when moving. It is best to put it in the grooves, tested for it, and secure the stapler brackets after checking the perpendicularity of the angles.
5. At the top edges of the cabinet, fasten the screwdriver metal corners, which are reliable for fastening the product to the wall. For this, enough screws 4x15.
6. Fastening the door of the mounted cabinet is the most responsible moment. Hidden loops need to adjust. Round holes are dried on a round cutter or nozzle for bitch on a drill. They must be located 8-10 cm from the upper edges. You need to do work carefully, so as not to drill the door through. The opposite holes in the sidewalls of the cabinet are made in advance, to the assembly.
It is important not to be calculated in the measurements so that everything coincides. When one loop is installed, exit the level of horizontal, fix and adjust the second. I first screw the loops to the door, then hang, fixing on the side wall. After that, mount the cabinet on the wall and put the shelves. In the outdoor cabinet, do not forget to insert the base before installing, it must be a deeper door. It is fixed with pins during body assembly.
