What types of cabinet door panels are there

1. Double-layer panel. The base material used is particle board, and both sides are covered with melamine material. It has very good stability, smooth appearance and is very wear-resistant. It is pressed into shape in one time and is not easy to deform. The disadvantage is that the color is relatively single.

2. Fireproof board also uses particle board as the base material, with fireproof veneer on the surface, and PVC sealing strips or aluminum alloy edge sealing on all sides. It has a smooth appearance, is not easy to deform, is resistant to high temperature, and has fire and moisture-proof functions. The disadvantage of this type of board is that the sealing must be done well, and the shape is relatively limited, so it can only be made into a flat plate.

3. Molded doors: These are made by using density boards that are carved into various shapes by machines and then pressed with PVC film at high temperatures. They do not require edge sealing and have very good moisture-proof properties, but the disadvantage is that the surface is not scratch-resistant.

4. Painted doors: This type of door is made of density board that is polished on all sides, painted and then baked at high temperature. It has high surface strength and no edge banding. It has the best waterproof function among all door panels, is easy to maintain, and has a variety of colors to choose from. It is a material that is used more frequently nowadays.

What should I pay attention to when customizing cabinet doors?

1. Don’t ignore the functionality of the cabinet doors. Some people prefer avant-garde and exaggerated cabinets, thus ignoring the most important storage function of the cabinets. As a result, after the cabinets are installed, they find that many things cannot be put in. Therefore, when choosing a cabinet, you must first ensure the storage function, and then consider the aesthetics.

2. Don’t blindly trust brands. We all know that well-known brands are more guaranteed in terms of quality and after-sales service, but when purchasing, you still have to examine the quality through details. A good cabinet should be considered from several aspects such as board material, countertop, drilling, etc., so when buying, don’t be afraid of trouble and be sure to shop around.

3. Samples should be combined with reality. When purchasing cabinet doors, you should combine them with the actual situation. Don't just look at the sample and communicate with the designer to get a drawing, so that the purchase process is completed.

How to clean the cabinet countertop

1. If it is artificial stone or stainless steel cabinet countertops, do not use hard scouring pads or steel wool to clean them, so as to avoid scratches on the countertops and affect the appearance. Also, try not to wipe them with chemical agents, because chemical agents contain ingredients that corrode the cabinet countertops and are not good for these materials.

2. The cabinet countertops made of fireproof board can be cleaned with detergent and nylon brush, and then wiped with a hot and damp cloth.

3. For natural stone countertops, it is best to use a soft scouring pad. Do not use chemical cleaners or strong acid toilet cleaning powders, as these cleaners will damage the glaze of the stone and make it lose its luster.

4. If it is a solid wood cabinet countertop, you can first use a duster to remove the dust on the surface, and then wipe it with a dry cloth and special maintenance liquid.

5. The countertops of the sink and gas stove should be avoided from collision. The joints of the two countertops must be wiped clean and not soaked in water.
