Where do I hang a wall cabinet?

These cabinets need solid fixings screwed into wall studs or masonry to support their weight safely. Hang them at eye level in kitchens, hallways, or bathrooms where their depth will not obstruct passage. Ensure the wall space allows the panelled doors to swing fully open without hitting adjacent walls or furniture.

How do I clean an antique cabinet?

Dust the timber regularly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent grit accumulation on the surface. Avoid modern silicone sprays and wet cloths, which can damage old wax and polish. Feed the dry wood occasionally with a traditional beeswax polish applied sparingly and buffed gently with a clean cloth.

Are these cabinets suitable for damp rooms?

Solid timber reacts to moisture and temperature changes by expanding and contracting. Kitchens and bathrooms with excessive steam can cause old wood and glue joints to stress. Keep these pieces in rooms with stable ambient climates to preserve the original panels and prevent warping.

How do I date an oak cupboard?

Look at the backboards, joinery methods, and the type of fixings used in the construction. Hand-cut peg joints and irregular sawn marks point toward earlier centuries. Compare the style of the panel mouldings and hinges with documented examples from the Georgian and Victorian eras.
