Brick floor cabinets will not be used less

The so-called brick cabinets are the outlines of the cabinets with red bricks. The tiles are attached to the outside and decorated properly. It will be very rustic. But environmentally friendly people are not looking for beauty, their purpose is to maximize the rejection of the appearance of plates in the kitchen.

Comments: Although there is a cabinet, but in order to meet the storage needs, the top cabinet is also indispensable, the cabinet must always be installed on the door panel. If you want to install the hardware such as pull baskets and drawer slides, you must also rely on the plates, and these materials are nothing more than the choice of solid wood or artificial boards. In general, the amount of plates used in brick cabinets is not too small. If the kitchen itself is not large, the bricks are stacked upside down, much thicker than the plates, which will take up more storage space.

The wall is made of a large discount for the wardrobe storage function.

Danger. In view of these contradictions, it is recommended that if the owner wants to make a similar wardrobe, or at a height of about 2.4 meters, use a light steel keel and gypsum board to make a crosspiece, which is equivalent to using the wall to make a large frame with a "door" shape, so that the glass door is The height is limited.

Homemade furniture environmental protection board is a large core board

Ms. Lu said that recently, in order to ensure the safety of the furniture, she decided to find someone to make furniture on the spot. "This kind of plate can be chosen by yourself, more assured." Finally, she chose the so-called "environmental board" introduced by a merchant. "The inside is the wooden strips that are lined up, and there are two veneers on the outside. The real wood is inside, and the environmental protection is definitely no problem."

Comments: According to Ms. Lu, the so-called “environmental protection board” is a common blockboard on the market, also called a large core board. It is understood that the large core board can be used in decoration, generally used to make furniture. In addition, when particleboard and MDF have just appeared, there are many small workshops produced, but the quality is not good. However, these two products are now very standardized, and the use of qualified products to make furniture is ideal in terms of performance and environmental performance.
