Build Cabinet Doors Plywood. Building your own cabinets requires knowing a little bit about plywood sizes and grades along with the actual woodworking skills you put to use in making them. I built my cabinet doors with simple frames and floating panels (as in the panels float inside the frame). There are a million ways to make a door, but this i cut my ¼ plywood panel down using my jig saw, but a table saw or circular or miter saw works fine, too depending on the size you need.
Plywood is made from many types of wood and in many different grades.
A banded edge door may have a rough seam that may show through the paint/stain when the door is finished. I matched the door height to the dimensions of another tall cabinet in the kitchen. Louvers are a stylish way to build window shutters or partition doors. To complete the other cabinet, all you need is a door. Even though the doors are a different style, you don't notice at first. Cabinet sliding doors offer the advantage of keeping everything inside free from dust. I didn't want my doors rubbing against my cabinet faceframes so i attached a strip of 1/4″ plywood at the top and bottom rails. This simple cabinet door can be built from solid wood, banded plywood or even melamine.
