    Another cabinet floating above the door would be an amazing built is cove look with a deep cased opening. Could be useful storage for winter items!

    Probably one of my favorite how to videos. After all I’ve watched I don’t think I’ve seen many be so specific and it’s my first time hearing about the need to include the depth of the doors in the side paneling which makes so much sense but is something I definitely would have overlooked.
    Thanks!

    • @KatjaNordkvist
      @KatjaNordkvist  Před 4 měsíci

      I sanded all of it before painting and then I used a regular square brush to prime all of it with a primer called Jotun heftegrunning. Then I used Jotun Supreme finish paint (medium glossy) and painted all of it twice. That’s it 😄

  • @user-it5gk5qe6g
    @user-it5gk5qe6g Před rokem +1

    Hi! Thanks for all the cool inspiration! I'm making a project similar to yours and have a few questions. First, around 12:40, you say that for the doors to be in the right position when closed you need to put in a shelve on the other side. What do you mean by that? Another question: in the video you say that the base is 140x55cm, but since it's sticking out, it must be a little more than that? like 56,6 deep? (cabinet + door) and how thick is the MDF you used? somewhere in the video you say it's 16 mm but it looks thinner. Hope you can help me! :)

    • @KatjaNordkvist
      @KatjaNordkvist  Před rokem +1

      Hi! You’re welcome, thanks for watching 🙏🏼
      1) If you don’t put in the shelf, the doors will kind of lean inwards a little bit, and not be aligned with the other doors. They need the “support” of the shelf.
      2) It is 140 x 55 cm but we put a piece of MDF on the outside which is 16 mm but you can also just build a base/platform completely out of MDF that measures 140 x 56,6 cm. That’s probably easier in many ways 😄 We just had some extra wood and decided to use that for the platform and put the 16 mm MDF piece on the outside afterwards.
      3) the piece on the bottom is 16 mm thick, the pieces on the sides are thinner - 12 mm if I remember correctly!

    In real life platsa cupboards are dog shyte, the quality is incredibly low for something coming from IKEA. In your video, it looks nice. Well done.
    Having been to IKEA, I'm never buying platsa stuff, unless and until they improve it.

    • @KatjaNordkvist
      @KatjaNordkvist  Před 9 měsíci +3

      The quality is lower than their Pax wardrobes, I think so too! Thank you! I think all the extra MDF makes it feel more sturdy, because the platsa cabinets themselves are made of a very light material and thus feel kinda fragile. But I like how the drawers feel when pulling them out!
