Kitchen Cabinet Refacing - Bringing a Fresh Breeze To Your Kitchen

There always comes a time when you need to reface your kitchen cabinets. This could mean either adding new cabinet doors or simply upgrading the actual cabinets to better materials. Even just changing your door knobs and pulls with some gorgeous cabinet pulls will do wonders for modernizing your kitchen. All this will give a new, fresh look to your kitchen without the extra cost of replacing your entire kitchen all together.

An important aspect of kitchen cabinet refacing is repainting the doors or laminating the veneer. You can find new veneers that will cover your current door and this will give your cabinets a new, just purchased look. Of course doors are the most visible part of any kitchen cabinet so depending on what your preferences are, you might want to change the door style to either a slab, or raised or recessed panel. The framed panel is the most elegant of the three, offering you a modern outlook with a window embedded in the door.

You can also used wooden doors made of either cherry, maple, oak, hickory or birch, these being among the most popular wood types used for cabinet doors. Also you can use stainless steel doors or various other elements such as the stainless steel cabinet pulls that uplift your entire kitchen cabinet to a beautiful contemporary style. Of course you can even replace your entire kitchen cabinet with stainless steel kitchen cabinets if you don't worry much about the costs but want instead a truly modern kitchen. These cabinets are very popular nowadays and many young married couple prefer these to the old style cabinets.

Another thing you can do for kitchen cabinet refacing is replacing the old hinges that attach to the door, side and end cabinet panels. You can use two main types of hinges, either the traditional style or the European style. The traditional style is also called the exposed style, which has self-closing barrel hinges. The European style hinges are not visible as they are screwed into the recesses that are in the back of the door. When you want to replace your cabinet hinges you need to pay attention to the type of cabinet you have, as that will determine what type of hinges you will get. You can't just get any hinge type because it looks better than the other.

You can attempt to do the kitchen cabinet refacing job yourself, but you should be good with a bit of carpentry knowledge. For example you need to know about sanding, sealing holes, proper measurements taking, installing, etc. It might take you a good week to do it all by yourself, alternatively it will take much less if you decide to hire instead a professional to do the job for you.

Solve using the five-step problem-solving process. Show all steps necessary to arrive at your solution.?

A rectangular cabinet door has a 20 inch by 38 inch glass panel in the center with a uniform wooden edge around the glass. If the area of the wooden edge is 248 square inches, how wide is the wooden edge?

I have no idea what the "the five-step problem-solving process" is, but here is a solution to your problem. Let x be the width of the wood. Then

38x + 38x + (20+2x)x + (20+2x)x = 248, the area of the wooden edge. Now simplify:

76x + 20x + 2x^2 + 20x + 2x^2 = 248, now get everything on left side:

4x^2 + 116x - 240 = 0, now divide by 4 to make the numbers smaller

x^2 + 29x - 62 = 0, now factor

(x+31)(x-2) = 0, so

x = 2 or x = -31. Since the solution cannot be negative, the solution for this problem is

x = 2 inches, the width of the wooden edge.
