MDF wardrobes

[Bartley413]

Here's some pics of some wardrobes I built over the last week for a customer they're in two seperate rooms one with two and the other room has three wardrobes. Carcases all in 18mm mdf with shaker doors in 22mm MR/mdf with 6mm panels. For a change I didn't bother cutting up all the sheet goods myself I used Cutwrights online cutting list. I had all the mdf cut to size leaving me the job of cutting all 400+ biscuit slots and putting it all together with Spax M screws and glue. I also had all the exposed edges treated with prep tape to save the painter any hassle you may be able to see this on some of the shelves. I also had the doors made by Cut wrights which I normally do myself but for the price they did them it wasn't worth my while messing about.

All the biscuiting was done with my new toy I treated myself to a Mafell LNF20 biscuit jointer what a difference to my old Axminster one :lol:.

I tried out a new method of doing all my infills on this job, I decided to make up long lengths of 6mm mdf glued and pinned to 18mm to form an L shape this is then scribed and slid down the sides and tops of the carcases and screwed behind the hinge clips. This worked really well as I found that with a few notches for shelves etc I could temporarily fix these to the inside of the carcase for scribing then you can just run two bits of 18mm mdf with a pencil down the wall to mark the scribe job done. I over hung the top infill just a little to form a sort of cornice.

Hi

This is an old thread (10 years plus) if you post up your location someone on here could then contact you.

Sorry just checked and showing as Romford.

Give a rough guide as to what you need:

1. Room or rooms you want wardrobes in.
2. Approximate size of wall (height x width) you want them fit to/between.
3. Any draws behind the doors etc.
4. Fully finished or just MDF finish.
5. When you would like them fit.

A sketch helps.
