Nowadays, when many people are renovating their houses, they do not have a very good understanding of the decoration process, so they do what they say when they hear what the workers say. Take kitchen cabinets for example. We found that some people have installed backboards in their homes, while others have not installed them. So which one is correct?
First, the function of the kitchen cabinet back panel
The decoration in the bedroom of the new house, I don’t know if you have noticed that there will be a thin backboard behind the wardrobe. In fact, this kind of decoration can play a certain role in preventing moisture and ash, but many people do not know the kitchen cabinet. In the end, do you want to design like a wardrobe? In fact, the back of the kitchen cabinet is pasted with tiles. In this case, do you need to make a back panel? Can the kitchen cabinet designed in this way achieve the absolute moisture-proof effect? The board can make the sealing of the kitchen cabinet a little better, prevent small insects from entering the kitchen cabinet, and can also make the kitchen cabinet more complete, and the opening is also very beautiful.
The installation of the back panel in the kitchen cabinet is not only for aesthetics, but also for more durability. If the kitchen cabinet is not equipped with a back panel, the entire kitchen cabinet becomes a square frame structure, which is relatively weak, and the kitchen cabinet After installing the backboard, the structure of the entire kitchen cabinet will become much firmer, and the backboard will play a fixed role.
Installing a backboard on the kitchen cabinet can also be more moisture-proof. Usually when we wash dishes or wash the kitchen countertop, some water may flow into the kitchen cabinet along the wall. If we do not install the backboard, it will be in the kitchen cabinet. Putting some food will be easy to get damp and moldy, and the kitchen cabinets will also be damp and moldy, and the service life of the kitchen cabinets will also be greatly reduced.
Second, should a backboard be installed behind the kitchen cabinet?
If the home is a self-made kitchen cabinet, there is no need to install a backboard. First, it is not cost-effective because of the large amount of work. Second, it is not easy to cut. The kitchen cabinet has to hide a lot of pipes, and it is especially inconvenient to cut the back panel, and the master is likely to pay more. Even custom kitchen cabinets sometimes have no back panels. For example, kitchen cabinets with hidden sewer pipes are generally not equipped with backboards. My kitchen cabinets were built with bricks by a master. When I installed the kitchen cabinets at home, my wife insisted not to install backboards. When the master heard it, he praised his wife for understanding the way!
There is a lot of water vapor in this place, and the back panel is prone to moisture and cracking. Even if the back panel is installed, the service life will not be long. In addition, many families will install kitchen treasure water purifiers, and the sockets will also be installed here. Installing the backboard will block the sockets. Therefore, it is not recommended to install the backboard on the kitchen cabinet under the sink, which is very impractical and sometimes get in the way.
If the structure of the kitchen cabinet is stable, there will be no problem without the back panel. It is recommended that you do not need to install the back panel. The tiles against the wall are easier to clean, and most importantly, without the weight of the backboard, the wall cabinet will become lighter and more reliable to hang on the wall.
Third, how to choose kitchen cabinets?
1. The quality of the board is very important
Depending on the quality of the sheet, the edge sealing should be fine, smooth, with a good feel, horizontal and vertical, fine joints, and even gluing. Brand products use a linear edge banding machine to complete the sequence of edge banding, end breaking, trimming, chamfering, polishing, etc., the pressure of pressing and sealing the edge is stable, and the precision of the processing size can be adjusted to the most suitable position to ensure the most accurate size. , and the quality is stable.
2. The level of punching is related to the firmness of the box structure
Panel furniture is assembled by three-in-one connectors, and many positioning holes need to be drilled on the panel. The coordination and accuracy of the holes will affect the structural firmness of the kitchen cabinet. Professional manufacturers use multiple rows of drills to complete a panel edge and All the holes on the board have the same positioning datum and the size is guaranteed. Small factories use row drills or hand drills to gradually drill holes, which is prone to large errors.
3. High standard cutting precision
The cutting of the plate is also a very important procedure. The professional large factory uses the electronic cutting saw to input the processing size through the computer, and the computer controls the size and precision, and processes several boards at a time, the specifications are very uniform, stable, and the tolerance is small, and the edge of the board does not collapse. These requirements are not met.
4. The choice of the door panel is very important
The door panel is the face of the kitchen cabinet. A good door panel is bright in color, not easy to fade, not easily deformed by moisture, not easy to bulge at the edge, not easy to penetrate stains and oil stains, and not easy to appear scratches and hard injuries.
5. Look at the slides of the drawer
This is an important link that affects the future use. The quality of the hardware of the kitchen cabinet directly affects the future use, and it is also an important part of the price of the kitchen cabinet. The hole position and the size of the plate will affect the installation of the hardware. Any potential failure will cause the drawer switch to be inconvenient, easy to loosen, translocate, and there will be large seams.
The kitchen cabinet is the most important furniture in the kitchen, so everyone must be careful when decorating the kitchen cabinet, and try not to make mistakes in some details.
