<p> I would look at using a 50mm x 15mm frame and 2.5mm Masonite
or 3mm MDF board on both sides,works very well and is light and
easily finished.</p>

office assistant is trying to help her BF fix
up his kitchen in an older house. There is a
cupboard with an opening that is 24 & 1/8”
by 54 & 3/4” that she wants to put doors
on. Apparently it had ¾” plywood doors that
were not even close to being flat and closing
properly.</span></div>

asked me what my thoughts about a variety of

one tall cabinet door and I can’t get past
that.</span></div>

to use a decorative butt style hinge to hang
them. She found a company that makes MDF
doors today but they are only 5/8” thick and
she can’t find a hinge that works for that. I
played with some MDF several years ago and was
not overly impressed. I’m thinking that the
doors will be too heavy for those little
hinges and the screws are not going to hold.</span></div>
