Numerous factory kitchens offer its products "very cheap" for 200-300 thousand rubles, and many people buy without thinking about the fact that cost so much money in the kitchen just nothing. Housing furniture made of cheap chipboard, facades slightly more expensive MDF. At the heart of countertops - all the same chipboard (DSP). All these materials are made of sawdust and of course they do not cost much.
Today I tell you how, with a little effort to make the kitchen a few times cheaper and no worse.
Here is the kitchen with expensive German tabletop with angled element facades covered with color film, and a large number of boxes cost me in 2010 to 60,000 rubles for everything, including consumer technique.
Decide to start with the project. You can use one of the kitchen design programs (eg such a program IKEA on site ), But you can go to any expensive kitchen shop and ask for a layout and calculation of the kitchen (for this money do not take).
Kitchen furniture consists of the following elements:
1. housing
2. facades
3. tabletop
4. Apron (panel on the wall from the lower to the upper cabinets)
5. Fittings (arms, legs, plinth, hinges, shelf supports, Slatted trays and cups)
6. Assembly
Most likely all of these elements have to be ordered or bought in different firms.
1. Housing.
You will need a firm that sells and sawing chipboard and plastic tags on the edge (it is important that the edge was just PVC 0.4 mm). Such companies can be easily found in any city in the search query "sawing chipboard." Ideally independently calculate the size of all elements of the case and come to a firm with a ready list of details and an indication of what the ends of each part stick edge. Some firms can help with the calculation of the size of parts of the kitchen cabinets sketch with dimensions. Sheet of chipboard 2850x1830 mm worth 1750 rubles, cut - 130 rubles per square meter parts, edge - 30 rubles per square meter. Kitchenware companies usually only offer two color body - white and wood, and in self-ordering, you can choose any color chipboard from more than 30 options. Copus my green kitchen are made of chipboard are very beautiful colors "Titan".
It is not necessary to order drill holes for fixing the housing elements and loops (additives). It is expensive, difficult to count and still go wrong.
Cutting chipboard there in building hypermarkets Leroy Merlin and OBI, but it turns out there are more expensive and they are not glued edge, proposing to use self-adhesive. I do not recommend doing.
I ordered a cut in http://www.pilim-kromim.ru and http://opilci.ru.
2. Facades.
We are identifying with what we want facades (chipboard, MDF, wood) and are looking for the manufacturer of the phrase "Furniture facades". Prices for different types of facades are very different, choose what you like and reasonable costs. The cheapest option - the facades of the same DSP as the body. Then you can order them together. Again it is desirable to calculate all the dimensions of their own. I ordered the firm facades Facade service, but it seems to no longer exist.
3. Worktop.
You can buy a countertop and cut it in building hypermarkets (but in this case will have to tinker with the self-adhesive edge at the ends), but you can find a company that specializes in counter. His cunning German tabletop Getalit I ordered the company Odyssey http://www.odissey.ru.
4. Apron.
All kitchen companies make aprons of 10mm chipboard. It is much cheaper and better to do it from a thin plastic liner sheet 2400x1200 mm, which is sold in building hypermarkets.
5. Accessories.
Arms, legs, hinges, guides for drawers (metaboxes) and other accessories can be found in the building hypermarkets and specialized shops. I'm part of the accessories bought in Leroy Merlin, as part of the store "Furniture".
6. Assembly.
I do not advise to try to put it all on their own, because we chipboard without filler holes, and on the facades are no loop holes. It is better to find someone who has eaten at such assemblies dog. Such collectors can advise in firms involved saw cut chipboard. Be sure to warn the collectors, that the parts without additives, and facades with no holes for the hinges. It is not those collectors who collect the furniture factory.
Details cabinets are usually attached to each other by means of small metal parts. It turns out very simply and firmly.
Of course much easier to go to the kitchen store, pay a lot of money and get the kitchen ready in a few weeks. But if you want to save money and get exactly a kitchen, what you want, it is better to spend a little time and effort, and make the kitchen your own way I said.
