Solutions to Common Questions

Cabinet Care

How should I clean my cabinets?

We recommend only using a damp microfiber cloth to clean cabinets. If you're trying to remove grease, you may use a small amount of grease fighting dish soap (not dishwasher detergent) mixed with water on the cloth, then wipe off immediately with a clean, damp cloth.

When cleaning with a microfiber cloth, how much water should I use?

The cloth should be no more than damp. If you're using a bucket of water, the cloth you're using should be dipped in and then fully wringed out before wiping the cabinet.

How do I take care of my Melamine drawer bottoms?

It's important to keep the drawers free of water. Dishes should be dried before putting away and water drops or spills should be wiped up immediately.

How much weight can the drawers support?

This depends on the drawer slides and manufacturer. The weight limits are often stamped on the slide itself. If you have trouble finding that information, please and we'll be happy to look up the specifications for your drawers.

What can I do if my shelf is sagging?

Often a shelf is sagging because there is too much weight on it. Try to redistribute the weight and the sagging should stop. If your cabinet has a center stile, it's possible the clip has fallen off. Please see this video and if you're missing the clip.

How much weight can my floating shelves hold?

We wouldn't recommend more than 30lbs per floating shelf. If you notice any sagging, there is too much weight on the shelf.

Why do some of my cabinets have center stiles and some do not?

Center stiles are typically used in cabinets over 33" wide. This depends on the cabinet manufacturer, style and material. Center stiles are for support and are installed for a reason. Please do not remove the center support from your cabinetry.

Can I change my hardware?

You can! You may want to find hardware with the same 'center-to-center' measurement so you can use the same screw holes (and avoid drilling extra holes).
