Laundry Room Wall Cabinet

Thanks for the compliment!  I’m afraid I didn’t save any of the plans I drew up to make the cabinets.  I used ¾ in cabinet grade plywood from Lowes to make two boxes.  The boxes measured 36”H x 16”D x 33 ¼ “wide.  The backs of the boxes are not solid, I ran an 8” piece across the top and bottom of the backs and used lag bolts to securely fasten the cabinets to the wall studs.  The face frame and doors are made of 1” x 3” select pine.  And I used a sheet of beaded board to make the center of the doors.  At the time I made my own jig to drill the shelf pin holes out of a piece of 1” x 4” oak.  I now have a Kreg Shelf Pin Jig.   As far as tools go I used a Kreg Jig Master System, cordless drill, circular saw, palm sander, a sliding compound miter saw, router with various bits and a tape measure.  I may be leaving out a few things but that’s the jest of it.  The cabinets are solid as a rock.

If I were to make them again I would add a set of shelves down the left side to store laundry detergent, bleach, and fabric softener.  As well as a bar across the bottom to place hangers.  Just a thought.

I hope this helps.  The Kreg Jig makes it very simple to build the boxes, face frame, and doors.

Great looking, great craftsmanship. 

I am looking to set something up like this in my new home. So much to do, so little time, definitely not enough money to buy everything, so I am looking to build some things.

these look better than the ones I was offered when building my home. It looks like you have the same type washer dryer, and same size room also.

Do you have some plans you can offer to help me out some, or a material list.

Anything would help

A Really Great job

This was the first project I made with my Kreg Jig.
