'Flatpack' or' Rigid' ? Look underneath the wall unit
A 'Flatpack' cabinet has numerous components that must be assembled. Plastic caps are then used to cover the concealed metal fittings. A 'Rigid' cabinet is factory-assembled and squared under pressure using traditional 'Dowel & Glue' joints. It is superior to 'Flatpack' but not necessarily more expensive as assembling 'Flatpack' units on site can be time-consuming and costly.

Look at the shelves ...
Are they of the same thickness as the side panels ? All too often shelves are inadequate for their use. Our cabinet sides and shelves are 19mm thick and have solid metal shelf support .

Check the back panel ...
Is it securely fixed to the sides of the cabinet ? A fitted back panel dramatically strengthens rigidity. Our back panels are 8mm Medium Density Fibreboard and are fitted during factory construction as an integral part of the cabinet.

Examine the drawers ...
Do they appear solid and secure ? Self assembled drawer boxes are prone to losing their strength. Weak bases may bend under weight, and front panels can become loose over time. All our drawer bases are factory constructed from 16mm metallic effect MFC and rigorously tested to the highest of standards.
