When performing that Double Cut, I use forceps to remove the narrow, hidden vinyl strip under the top vinyl layer. Never fails.
Very helpful, thank you!
Thank you for demystifying some of the advance techniques, great work
Great technique and the small detail stuff really helps. Would love to see both sides of the door wrapped and no one ever seems to do that. Also it maybe worth mentioning that the grain of the finished door is running the wrong way. If a door was made in real timber with the grain running the way you wrapped it, it would be very weak.
Problem is vinyl isn’t cheap and most people don’t want to pay - it’s usually commercial that have no problem hence that’s why most don’t show it
Great job and education
learnt a lot from your content thank you. Could you do a tutorial on an arched inset architrave door?
Great tutorial. Thank you very much.
Very good demo of fixing and trimming, but all the frame grains are 90° out
Styles have vertical grain direction, and rails have horizontal grain direction. The grain usually lays along the longest dimension.
You seem to have things backwards.
I would like to see how to do a cabinet door on both sides?😊
Coming soon!
Excellent instructions and demonstration,
Thank you very much
Wonder if you have any thermofoiling videos?
Hi, thank you! Unfortunately, we don't have such a video

Thank you
Nice tutorial. However I believe in first raping the panel then after the door is assembled rap the styles and rails. In that way, the wood grain looks can be consistent. For the outer angle cut the 45 degrees fold then cut the 90 lastly peel and seal.
I’ve got plastic front old mobile home cabinet doors that I’d love to wrap.
Can your product be heated to conform to the crazy raised center of the door face?
Thanks so much
in 90° cutting edge, I think it's better to do the folding first and then overlap it, end try to angle your cutter 45° whenever you cut the extra material for better results and a smooth edge sometimes a wrapper/foiler they're not paying attention there's still a 1mm extra that can cause of the peeling off of the vinyl and that's the most popular problem 🤣
Thanks for your feedback! I will pass it to our installers
Why dont you heat gun one piece of vinyl to wrap the cabinet door ones, instead of using strips?
Hi, thanks for the comment. We use both ways to wrap cabinet doors. In the video, we showed only one method
Rails and styles on a shaker style door such as this one, use strips of wood with the grain parallel to the longest dimension. For most doors, that means the left and right strips (styles) will have a vertical grain, and the upper and lower strips (rails) will have a horizontal grain. The center panel grain will also lay along the longest dimension, which is usually the vertical.
Laying out the grain this way, provides a strong visual effect which can't be achieved using a single vinyl sheet.
I have done very similar with woodglut designs.
Yes, why would you install the wood grain vinyl completely in the opposite direction to how the solid wood door was originally constructed?
I would be asking you to remove and reinstall the vinyl on my 26 kitchen unit doors. Costly mistake to make. Also, in the unlikely event that you are covering untreated bare wood kitchen unit doors, using a sponge roller for water base priming would generate an orange peel effect with miniscule air bubbles. The primer would not completely penetrate the wood and could even lift off (skin up) when the vinyl is being installed. Most solid wood kitchen unit doors are protected with a lacquer or varnish. After cleaning, only the door edges need to be primed with a non- water based primer. Also never use a piece of carpet to lay the vinyl on for cutting. This will generate loose carpet fibres that can be easily blown up into the atmosphere and stick to the vinyl adhesive when the backing paper is being removed during installation.
I hear you in regards to carpet. I noticed the other day in the sunlight when applying vinyl to some cabinet doors, how the vinyl became an electrically-charged magnet for every piece of dust and debris in the room, as soon as I peeled off the backing paper. Deadly.
Prior to vinyl application, what would you suggest as a coating for bare wood in most cases, especially MDF and hardboard? I find the vinyl does not adhere well to these.
