Oak panels for an oak bathroom cabinet
We often get the question every day: what exactly can you make of those beautiful oak panels? We are happy to inspire you. This is Mathijs' case.
He bought a beautiful 18 mm oak panel from us in an average rustic quality. So not with too many knots but not completely without. For his bathroom furniture. And the beautiful natural look in his bathroom. We would like to show you the result because it is breathtakingly beautiful.
Oak panels 18 mm thick
An 18 mm thick oak panel is the ideal carpentry panel if you are going to make a bathroom cabinet. Okay, you can make the edges a bit thicker. For example in 30 mm oak or 40 mm oak . But the base that you use for the fronts is usually 18 mm oak. Mathijs had already made a nice design himself, but of course you can also outsource that. To an interior stylist or architect, for example. And we are also happy to think along with you. Based on this design, Mathijs calculated exactly what he needed in wooden parts.
How do you process an oak panel?
Mathijs chose to have the sawing done by Eikenpanelen.nl. You can of course do it yourself, but then a good saw or saw bench is a requirement. In this case, Mathijs had neatly translated the dimensions of his furniture into a sawing schedule. And with that sawing schedule, we could easily saw his oak panels into the desired parts. That meant that at Eikenpanelen.nl, Mathijs actually had a ready-made construction kit ready. He only had to assemble it himself at home.
Processing of oak panels
If you make furniture from oak panels, a few things are important. First of all, of course, purchasing the right oak wood, but you've come to the right place for that :-) Secondly, you need to select well-dried wood, also
we will arrange that for you at Eikenpanelen.nl. All our oak panels have the ideal wood moisture for use in your home, bathroom or office. Then comes the treatment with oil or lacquer. Not much can go wrong there as long as you apply an equal number of layers to both sides of the oak panel. So that the wood is nicely protected against changes in humidity and temperature. And of course just water from your tap. The best tip is not to leave moisture on your furniture for a long time but to remove it with a towel after use. Then you can keep your bathroom furniture good for 100 years.
From oak panel to custom bathroom furniture
In the photos you can see the beautiful choices that Mathijs made in his design. Beautiful deep drawers for lots of storage space. Sleek stainless steel handles for bathroom furniture with a modern look. And an oil treatment that gives the oak an even warmer look. Are you also curious about the possibilities? Feel free to send us your design or cutting list. We will then send you an overview of the possibilities and the price. Usually, custom oak panels are ready for you within a few working days.
