Starting the Finishing Details

We put on all the doors we had in the garage. We are still waiting for the doors for the cabinet over fridge. It was part of the big Ikea snafu way back in April. They are taking very good care of us, but we have a little bit of time to go before all the backordered stuff arrives at our house.


You might notice that we have handles on the doors now as well. We discovered that it is very hard to open these doors when there are no handles on them.








We also cut the surround for the ovens and put that up.


In the corner by the door there is a tall cabinet that is the new broom/vacuum cupboard. Unfortunately to have the door open in the sensible manner meant that it would foul on the doorknob to the garage. We could have changed the door so it opened on the other side, but that would have been a huge pain.

So I went online and searched for low profile door handles and found this lovely thing. It doesn't even stick out as far as the door frame and opens very easily when you pull it or push it, depending on which way you are opening the door. It fits into the existing doorknob cutout and arrived today. Exciting! Please ignore the sawdust all over it.
