Hi all

What would you guys suggest for making kitchen cabinet end panels in for a hand built kitchen? I'm thinking maybe 18mm m.r mdf ??
Thanks

Depends what style you are looking at, I have used t&g in a panel using redwood that covered the exposed end of a cabinet made using panel and frames. with ply. Think to the finished product, the material used will determine the paint finish .

Thanks just a flat shaker style 9mm overlaid onto 18mm to create a panel
 
Most end panels in our kitchens come from the same material as the doors, that could be painted wood or MFC, we normally cut those with the doors or if they are solid wood we just order a matching panel from the same supplier. Really depends what look you are going for, last week we supplied coloured glass end panels to match the splash backs in a huge retail kitchen costing £80000 in London.

Yup. works well.

Example. These are ikea cabinets sanded down(to provide a paint key) with thin board overlaid to create a paneled look.
Customer was very happy, fitted in well in their 19th century house.

Of course we didnt tell them the base cabinets were from ikea. Just some secrets are meant to be kept
