Problems with a cabinet usually go unnoticed until issues pop up. One of the most common problems homeowners experience with their cabinets is when the cabinet door starts to come apart or fully comes apart. While a cabinet coming apart is not an ideal situation, there are solutions. This blog will list possible reasons causing your cabinet door to come apart and offer suggestions on how you can fix it.
1. Broken Hinges
Hinges enables a cabinet door to open and close so when cabinet doors start to come apart, the most likely cause is a broken cabinet hinge. Cabinet hinges can wear down and break over time due to repeated opening and closing a cabinet door. A broken hinge may be fixed by tightening loose screws, and if not, a replacement hinge is likely necessary.
2. Poor Installation
Another reason that can cause your cabinet door to start coming apart is if it was installed incorrectly. If you had a certain company help you install your cabinets, contact them as soon as you notice your cabinet door coming apart. They may be able to give you advice on how to fix it or help you through your cabinet warranty plan.
3. Pulling on The Handle Too Hard
Opening your cabinets with my force than necessary can also cause the door to come apart. When opening your cabinets, be mindful of how fragile the cabinet door can be. It does not require much force to open a cabinet door so always try to open your cabinets as gently as possible.
