  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

That cabinet looks awesome.

Applying weatherstripping is not as easy as it sounds. You have to still have the door close properly. The easiest solution usually is to move the hinges out so the doors are mounted an even distance out from the cabinet all around. Lots of strong magnets are needed to hold the door closed with even pressure. I would say about 3-4 down the height of those doors. Also, I would suggest sealing all the back joints with odour-free silicone caulk to improve the seal.

You may also want to drill some holes or cut slots in the shelves to improve air circulation. A 1" hole saw would make quick work of it.
Thanks Bruce. That's what I thought. I was a thinking of getting a magnetic refer seal as its flexible and seals well.
