As we all know, there are two methods for making wardrobe, one is factory customization, and the other is inviting carpenters to do it on-site. What is the difference between the two?
Branded customized panels are different from woodworking panels
Most of the boards used for brand customization use solid wood particle boards or multi-layer solid wood boards. These two types of boards have better quality and high cost performance, which can prolong the life of the wardrobe. Although the price will be higher, the quality is really guaranteed.
“Woodworking boards generally use blockboard and cedar boards, which are relatively affordable, but require glue at the joints of the boards.”.
Brand customization and woodworking are different in edge banding
From the perspective of edge banding. Formaldehyde is released from plates. If multiple plates are stacked, formaldehyde will be released more. Therefore, edge sealing is particularly important.
“The carpenter uses cold glue and edge banding to seal the edges. The edge banding is generally firm, and the smell of formaldehyde can be very strong. Therefore, the carpenter’s wardrobe needs to be dried for several months before it can be moved in.”.
The customized company uses a machine for high-temperature hot melt edge sealing, which makes the edge sealing more firm and precise. Relatively much better than manual craftsmanship, machine edge banding panels are superior to manual edge banding panels.
Brand customization and woodworking differ in design functions
The design process for customizing a wardrobe generally involves measuring a scale, followed by a design draft based on consumer requirements, followed by consumer confirmation of the plan, and finally, production and installation. The designers are all senior designers, who combine ergonomics and owner requirements during design to greatly utilize space and design functional partitions.
“Generally, carpentry only builds wardrobes based on carpentry experience and the owner’s requirements, and rarely conforms to modern scientific design. As a result, various functional issues may arise during later use.”. Moreover, carpenters with good craftsmanship generally have relatively high production costs, are also quite popular in the market, and are difficult to arrange their time.
The production cycle of brand customization and woodworking is different
1. The efficiency of carpentry is relatively fast. The owner has communicated well with the carpenter to confirm the quantity of boards and make an appointment for the time. The carpentry can be completed on site in a few days.
The general designer of customization needs to design first, and then place an order for production. Through processing, transportation, and installation, the production cycle typically takes one month or more.
The after-sales aspects of brand customization and woodworking are different
“Woodworking closets are generally completed by decoration teams, and most decoration teams do not see anyone after installation, resulting in unstable after-sales support.”.
Brand manufacturers of customized wardrobes have a complete after-sales service system, and problems can be solved in a timely manner. Therefore, the after-sales service for customized wardrobes is more complete than that for woodworking closets.
Summary: From the above comparison, it can be seen that wardrobe customization and carpentry have their respective advantages and disadvantages, and the industry mainly chooses based on their own economic situation and favorite styles.
