The custom built kitchen rolls on! This phase, the last of the wall cabinets, has been an "L"-shaped corner unit, a conventional tall storage cupboard and a cupboard built around an extractor unit. All units were painted by the client (as before) and installed on two pairs of French cleats (extractor cupboard on a single pair). The "L" corner unit was not symmetrical, also I had to hang the larger door off of the smaller one to match the opposite corner of the room.
Everything in MDF. All panels in 6mm (1/4") except for smaller corner unit door, which has a 12mm (1/2") panel to "beef it up" enough to take both its own hinges and the pie-cuts to swing the other door. The extractor vents through the cavity wall to the outside. A custom shelf inside gives storage in about 60% of the cabinet volume - 30% is taken up by the motor housing.
Here's the whole phase:
Here's the extractor cupboard, with the extractor hood slid out and working:
Here's the corner unit larger door opened on its pie-cut hinges:
Here's the whole unit open by swinging the smaller door on its 270 degree hinges:
Here's how it matches in with Phase One:
Thanks for looking.
