Kitchen set with their own hands - the basic rules

Many people with great delight are looking at furniture stores for expensive kitchen sets. Often people just dream about them. Of course, you can accumulate the necessary sum or purchase furniture on credit. But there is another way - to make a kitchen set with your own hands. Yes, it will take some time and you can not do without fuss, but in the end result you will get a low price and uniqueness of the execution of kitchen furniture.

The first stage is the creation of a project. A competent and correct arrangement of furniture in the room will allow you to get the maximum convenience and functionality of the kitchen. When creating a project, it is necessary to take into account the future location of the hood, cooker, refrigerator, microwave oven (oven), sink, etc. You should pay attention to the corner kitchen set, which allows you to use the area of the room. The design of the kitchen can be created independently, for example, you can find on the Internet the version you like with ready-made drawings. And also you can contact the designer salon, where the size of your premises will correctly create a project, select the style and color scheme.

The next step is to create a drawing of a kitchen set. Despite the wide variety of styles, the suite has a common structure, which consists of simple components. These are hulls and facades, which give it an appearance. Creating a kitchen set with your own hands, first of all you need to calculate the number and size of the cases. If you have a small kitchenette, then it would be more appropriate to place furniture along the wall. When creating a drawing, it is necessary to follow the standard dimensions, such as the height of the case (bottom) - 850 mm, the height of the cap - 100 mm. The height of the upper cases may be different, but according to the standard it is 720 and 960 mm. The worktop has a standard width of 600 mm, and the depth of the cabinets is 300 mm.

It should be noted that the depth of the lower cabinets should be less than the width of the countertop. This is done to create a canopy (50 mm) in front of the hull, and a space for pipelines (100 mm) is required from behind. Facades have dimensions in steps of 100 mm, which begin with 300 mm. The width of the body and the upper and lower can reach 800 mm. The main thing is to remember that by creating a corner kitchen set, all calculations are carried out from the corner.

After the drawing is ready, it is necessary to write out all the dimensions of the structural parts, and after a thorough check, you can order them in the production. While manufacturing of details will take place, it is necessary to purchase accessories in the furniture store, often it is sold and on manufacture on a saw of a material.

After receiving all the details it remains to assemble the kitchen set with your own hands. As a rule, the assembly begins with the lower module. If you have a corner kitchen project, you need to start from the corner cabinet. After assembling all the modules and setting them on the same level, they are fastened together with screws, and only then you can install the countertop, which is also fixed with screws. Installation of the upper cabinets is carried out using special wall mounts. And the last point is the installation of accessories and the placement of household appliances.

We can say that the kitchen set is made by own hands!
