T@b 320BD Cupboard doors after pulling microwave

Shunyun

We pulled our microwave and I build new cupboard doors.  Built entirely from what I could find at Lowe's Hardware.

The wood is poplar, 1/2"x6"x24" boards.  They're actually lighter and less grainy in person (iPhone camera did this automatically), so they blend nicely with the rest of the wood.

Nice job! Very clever idea to make them bi-fold.

Very nice work!

Have you road tested them yet? I ask because when I replaced my air conditioner (which was in that same location in older T@Bs) with a cabinet the door would not stay closed on the road, even though I had installed the same latch dohicky used on the other cabinets. I ultimately had to add a thumb screw so i could effectively bolt the door closed whiled in transit. Just something to be aware of...

Very nice!

@ScottG Yeah, I was wondering about that.  But the hinges are very stiff; that is, they resist opening up to a point.  So it's really not the magnetic latch that keeps the doors close but rather it's the hinges.  The latches just keep it "clean".
