Project Features
The cabinet is made of light-colored laminated wood (LDS panel) with a natural wood texture. The lower section is a closed cabinet with swing doors, featuring an extra storage shelf inside. The upper section has two open shelves supported by metal poles.
This combination provides both practicality and style:
• the bottom section hides everyday items from sight;
• the open shelves provide space for décor and quick access items;
• the metal supports add a modern and lightweight appearance.
Materials and Hardware
For this project, we used:
• Laminated wood (LDS panels) with a wood texture finish;
• PVC edge banding to protect the edges from damage and moisture;
• Metal poles to support the open shelves;
• Hardware including hinges, handles, and mounting brackets.
Work Process
1. Measurements and planning — we visited the site, measured the space, and agreed on the design.
2. Cutting materials — the panels were cut to size and edge-banded.
3. Cabinet assembly — the base and sides were put together to form a solid frame.
4. Door installation — handles and hinges were installed and adjusted.
5. Metal pole installation — supporting poles and upper shelves were mounted.
6. Final installation — the cabinet was leveled and securely fixed in place.
Benefits of Custom Furniture
Unlike pre-made store furniture, custom-built pieces offer many advantages:
• exact fit for any space;
• freedom to choose colors, textures, and hardware;
• a perfect match with the existing interior;
• durability and strength thanks to quality assembly.
Conclusion
The result is a stylish and functional cabinet that combines hidden storage with open display space. It takes up minimal room but adds maximum practicality.
