You can cut the slatwall with a sabre saw/jigsaw or any circular chop saw like a table saw blade or any wood working saw.

Question 8

What are your cabinets made out of?

Accepted Answer

Our door/drawer fronts are made out of Powder coated MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard). Powder Coating has been the quality standard for metal parts for years, we have just taken that same technology and applied it to wood.

This gives our doors a very durable and scratch resistant finish to an already solid and stable door. This is the perfect finish solution for the garage environment.

The cabinet boxes are made out of Melamine which is a generic term used in the woodworking industry for material that is used for building cabinets. The material is made using sustainably grown wood chips combined with resin to create a very stable board that receives a smooth, moisture resistant, and cleanable surface.

We use 3/4” M2 Industrial Grade Melamine with InCopper™ Antimicrobial Technology, that protects the surface against fungi and mold that can cause stains and odor. This technology is ideal for interiors where humid conditions are likely to expose the surface of the panel to harmful microbes.

Our background is in large commercial cabinet/casework projects. We have been providing cabinets to business's, schools and medical facilities for 30+ years, and in most cases the architects specify melamine for the cabinet material.

Question 9

What is melamine?

Accepted Answer

Our background for 30+ years was manufacturing cabinets/casework for large commercial projects (buisness, labs, schools, medical facilities, and hotels/time shares). So when we created our first line of Garage Cabinets in 2004, we wanted to use many of the same commercial materials like the 3/4" M2 Industrial Grade Melamine that we used for the cabinet boxes of our commercial cabinets.

Melamine is a generic term used in the woodworking industry. Melamine's core is made using sustainably grown wood chips combined with resin to create a very flat, consistent, and stable board that receives a smooth, moisture resistant, and cleanable surface.

The core of melamine is commonly refered to as Particle Board. Like most products or materials there are varying qualities from low quality to very high quality. Unfortunately some companies in the industry are cost conscious rather than quality conscious, and use a very low grade which sometimes gives particle board a black eye because many people lump all particle board into that same low quality bucket, and don't realize all 'particle board' is not equal.

All of our melammine is manufactured in Grayling Michigan USA, by a company called Arauco. This plant is one of newest and most sofisticated in the world. The process of manufacturing board is truly amazing, watch the video to learn more.

Question 10

Does our product contain formaldehyde?

Accepted Answer

There is no added formaldehyde in our melamine board.
