Modernizing Kitchen Update

Currently assisting a client by upgrading cabinets

to a Satin Black from existing Golden Oak Colour and

adding Colonial Wainscot (1 3/4" face detail)

boxes as well as microwave over range installation.

Notice on the above range install that OBC code requires

a surface mounted/grounded 3 receptacle outlet for

the microwave/fan combo. We then installed a hard

5/8" panel to take the new weight of the microwave

instead of relying on cheesy toggle/butterfly bolts. With

6 3" zircons, this can now take about 4ooo lbs dead weight before

breaking ;)

We custom sized the microwave install for someone a little

less tall than the standard 24" above range for ease of use.

Pictures to follow once complete - special thanks

to Craig and Sasha for the chance to work on this

fine home ;)

Cabinets require oscillation sanding to profile,

detail sanding, removal of hinge and hardware

and HVLP application of both primer and paint

for a maximum dft (dry film thickness) of 8-9 mils

to avoid cold or hot check down the line.

Sasha mentioned replacing all cabinets would have

run northward of 2K, we painted them for less than

750.00 complete and they look brand new !!!
