Punched Tin Linen Closet Door Inserts
Comments (21)Hi rtwilliams... we (I use the term loosely) are thrilled with the inset door style - only wish I'd known when we spec'd out the kitchen. Thank you for posting the picture, I've admired it many times and looked up the MFR as well. eandhl - thanks, I like those too very much. However, with the creamy white color cabinet I picked (same as my kitchen so well do I know the color!), a dark glass/combination is dissatisfying. As soon as I realized this, I moved on to a glass insert, vs. tin. Lynn - you are SPOT ON! If not a display case, do not showcase contents!! And to be honest... it may not end up being a linen closet. I just called it that for lack of a better label. It may end up being overflow shoe storage (mine of course!) and I may even give DH some real estate. The only thing purposed so far are the lower drawers, which will hold afghans/small comforters for use in the family room. Exciting (and slightly scary) update. I ordered these Wednesday morning and went to work questioning my choice. Later in the day, when I received a shipment email, I was sure it was the glass sample I'd included..... DH most kindly helped unpack and get these ready for pictures and then even told me to post my update before we start dinner. He's one in a million. Thanks for reading and enjoying with me. Look for the construction thread due to start (hopefully) this weekend! Please ignore the dog hair (and dog) on the carpet....See MoreMagnetic Switch for Linen Closet with Inset Doors
Comments (4)ronnatalie-thank you. Do you have a recommendation for what kind of switch to use? Geoffrey_B -thanks as well. Perhaps something like the linked? My preference would be in white if you can suggest any sources. Here is a link that might be useful: Spring loaded switch...See MorePlease help me design a new linen/utility closet
Comments (10)leave 1.5 feet at ground-a tote or basket will be pulled OUT to you when you want item so you don't need full 2 feet...medium sized totes are nicer than huge oversized ones from my experience. I'd plan between shelf spacing at 15-18 inches as you will reach IN and organize,place and pull out,etc....need "hand room"- maybe 21 inches at one spot. At the top shelf allow 2 feet to ceiling....rarely used/out of season blankets in storage bags/etc.... very handy so make it bigger....you'll need a stepstool anyway...so allow for substantial storage there. Are you placing fixed positions....can't this be flexible/adjustable shelves....See MoreLinen Closet Replacement Door Needed
