Dude my mind is blown. I love the idea of the drawers but the fact that you took the center piece and attached it to the door to keep the look but gain functionality is genius!
Same. I wanted to cut that middle slab piece. It’s annoying. Thank you

Such perfection. Professional tool usage, accurate 'transfer' measurements eliminating numerical transposition errors, very safety conscious, foam & bristle brush usage from an expert craftsman. What a wealth of knowledge in one sitting. Thank you soooo much!
I love watching wood working projects & this one is exciting because I can do this. Granted I don't have all the tools you have, however seeing the easy ways to cut, install with those templet strips gives me so many ideas. Thanks so much for sharing this.
You caught us from the beginning when you started cutting out the center board. I just had to see what you were going to do. Ingenious move adding the center to one of the doors. Great project.
I liked your video, very helpful! No music or overly verbose talking, just showing how it's done - Getting ready to do this for the wife also... Thanks!
That's a really good idea you had by attaching the middle section of the frame to the cabinet door. It looks good & turned out great! I may borrow your idea when I attempt this on my own cabinet.
Every base cabinet should be manufactured like this! Getting ready to build some cabinets for our kitchen and was trying to figure out how to manage the spacing between the doors if we used full drawers. Thanks man!
Wow! Just the information I was looking for. Not sure I have the strength or talent. But interested in trying. I’m a recent widow almost 65 and have huge health issues. But my kitchen is a storage nightmare! Thank you for the information!
Thank you. I want to do something very similar to a bath vanity for client. I'm looking to add three drawers on the right side and use the existing door for the drawer faces. The existing cabinet does not have a center support. If I add one, then I have something to fasten to on that side for the new drawers to fit into. I really appreciate no background soundtrack. Thank you for that, I like the way you work. I am subscribing today.
I have the exact cabinet that you are upgrading. How lucky it is for me to find your tutorial. Unfortunately I don’t have the nice table saw and equipment that you have 😞 But I got the idea and will work around to achieve it 🙏👏🌟👍
When you get a chance stop by and add some of these to my cabinets. Lol I have often said if I get new cabinets the bottom cabinets will be drawers and not cabinets. With my back issues I often can't get to the back of a cabinet that in almost at floor level
I’ve thought about removing that center face frame to make larger pullouts, but I wasn’t sure if it would compromise the strength of the cabinet, thanks for sharing!
TBH that cabinet does not appear too wide. We have 45" wide 'uns and I 'd be careful taking them off. But he is patient, exacting and talented. Great tutorial for sure.
I've thought the same thing. I was wondering if I would want to reinforce with a board on the inside just above the opening, but I think that center piece doesn't really add to much in terms of structural support to begin with and the counter top above probably disperses the weight anyways.
Be sure to check for screws in the back of the center post. Some cabinets have four screws on the cabinet side of the post, two at the top and two at the bottom.
You were doing exactly what I wanted to do myself. Thank you! If I can make a suggestion, would you tell your audience what you are doing and explain things as you go?
This is genius for smaller/older homes. It's my dream to do this to my cabinets because they're so narrow when separate, would be so much more useful to open together. The other videos of customizing and expensive bulky cabinetry doesn't work for everyone. Just wish I had the talent and tools to do this 🥺
So you took what's in my head and made a video to help my husband understand what I was trying to explain! After I watched it, I dragged out of the car that he was working and made him watch it twice. My next question... How long will it take for you to do all four of our cabinets?
Rather than rabbeting the bottom in, consider putting in a dado and then under the bottom shelf run a piece of perforated steel, from side to side. Having had 1/2" shelves with pots on them for 20 years, the 1/2" shelf in a rabbet will bow eventually. Using the dado gives you 1/2" to slide in a piece of steel to support the shelf. pots and pans are heavy
Agreed ... while incessant chatter is annoying a lil bit of what you are using or what your doing to avoid ___ would be nice. STILL INSPIRED! We have that same cabinet & wish to high heaven we'd have spent the extra $ and had pull outs in ALL from the git-go. Thanks for showing the work around on the door - that alone was worth watching! 😎
Adorei seus fur baby, lol. I talk to mine just like that. Thank you for inspiring me! I think I'd like to make your creation for my plant shelf? No? Ciao! 2:53
Did you mean to cut all that extra boards? It seems like you went crazy and just kept cutting and cutting and cutting. Great finished product. Interesting you wore a dust mask but no eye protection. Thanks for sharing an excellent kitchen upgrade!
This was a great video. Thanks for sharing. I still don't understand how you did an entire video without talking to yourself even once, LOL. I am constantly mumbling, or swearing, when my DIY attemtps are underway.
Do you do cabinet rehab consulting? Charges? I have a 1910 that have cabinets that are probably original to the house. Would love to do basically what you did but also change out all cabinet doors to make them look nice but yet not new or prefab. Every cabinet man I've talked to says just tear it all out and order new cabinet boxes. I'll keep what I've got before I do that I think. Thanks for the video.
I'm working in a home right now, 1970's ranch, oak front cabs, but the interiors are all particle board and some in bad shape. I'm fixing them in such a way they'll look beautiful after I'm done with them and will hold up for decades after decades of more usage before anyone even thinks of swapping them out for new!
Hi. My husband and I want to add some pull outs to our camper. Is it possible to install the drawer slides to the base of the cabinet verses the sides. We can’t screw into the walls of the cabinets. Thanks for your help.
I can't see any reason why you trimmed the sides of the center face frame you removed..... Its driving me nuts trying to figure out why you did that
I did it to drive you nuts. Mission accomplished.
@@DanielDunlap 😂😂😂😂
Because the piece was too wide for the doors to close?
@@christinacutlass1694 ???? It was attached to the door... You always have to close that one first
Maybe the piece had some wear and damage
For beginning woodworkers like us, a running commentary would have been very helpful. Please consider adding it. Lovely work.
I agree!

Absolutely genius!!

Thank you soooo much!
Brilliant. I don’t think I have ever learned so much from a non narrated video as I did here. Great job.

Poor Man's DIY thank you. I’m glad you liked it!
All need this in kitchens 50 years ago some had them built like that nice as you age
Love a table saw where the user brings the safety. Excellent!
I liked your video, very helpful! No music or overly verbose talking, just showing how it's done - Getting ready to do this for the wife also... Thanks!
Why is the kitchen "the wife's " is the toilet hers too

Did you do it? I'm 70 and love everything about woodworking.
Thank you, after watching this video I have confidence to build a few sliding drawers to my motorhome.
Nice job. Great vid showing sequence you did it in. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent video, this is on my to-do list. This has encouraged me to try and get things done. Thanks very much.
Not a words spoken.
My kind of video.
Excellent job! And don’t worry about explaining it, hobby woodworkers and professionals know what we’re seeing.
Awesome work Daniel.
Come do mine!! I have been wanting this done forever!! Nice work.
I use the 3/4 spacers for the roll outs drawers and their work fantastic! You should try it
I’m digging your style. Well done!
The vid is crisp and the bokeh is spot on!!
Ludwig Barnes thank you! 😊
I wish I had a husband like you mate very clever lol. Thanks for the vid I enjoyed watching you work.
Are you in the market for a handi - husband? Lol!
In the process of building slide out shelves as well for the kitchen cabinets. 4:40 to 5:12 is a great tip. Thanks
I have two cabinets to which I will be do that same improvement!
Great Job 😉👍🏽🪚🔨📐✏️
MUY BIEN HECHO, Y MUY PRACTICO.FELICIDADES

Fantastic job thanks for sharing and a great idea 🍺🍺👍👍👍👍👍
Love it, awesome video, not trying to be a comedian, or funky music, just da business. great job
Can you say Badass! Definitely, a Badass! Nice Flipping Saw!
This is exactly what we need, thanks!
So nice to have you show us your products, Now where can we buy your products, so we can install what we buy, from your company. Interesting to know
Best how-to video ever!
Nice. Good solid build without 5k worth of fancy tools. Now I know I can do same with my cupboards.
I have the exact cabinet that you are upgrading. How lucky it is for me to find your tutorial. Unfortunately I don’t have the nice table saw and equipment that you have 😞 But I got the idea and will work around to achieve it 🙏👏🌟👍
Thanks for the video. It is so helpful for my project.
I have had pull out drawers since 1991. I just need new cabinet fronts. I love my pull outs.
Great work - pleasure to watch!
When you get a chance stop by and add some of these to my cabinets. Lol
I have often said if I get new cabinets the bottom cabinets will be drawers and not cabinets. With my back issues I often can't get to the back of a cabinet that in almost at floor level
I was mesmerized! Nice work
Excellent job

Show him the video! ;)
Be sure to check for screws in the back of the center post. Some cabinets have four screws on the cabinet side of the post, two at the top and two at the bottom.
Now I need someone to do this in my kitchen.
You were doing exactly what I wanted to do myself. Thank you! If I can make a suggestion, would you tell your audience what you are doing and explain things as you go?

Wow! Looks great!
Great Video! Very good videography, steady camera, and very enjoyable to watch! I'll be doing this upgrade soon and it was nice seeing it done first.
Wow! that was awesome.
AWEAWESOME JOB!! I want that in my kitchen
Good job!!! When we know what to do & we have the tools, plus a good helper 🐕 sure, We can do amazing things 👍👍👍
Great Video...I learned and got a lot ideas. My only question why don't you use your shop vac when your sanding?
Pete Urbann honestly... laziness. But that has been rectified since posting this video.
That was so satisfying to watch. I'm looking to put pull outs in a tall cabinet. I can't find a thing in the back!
- Great project. Thanx for sharing. Gave me incentive to start on mine.
We need more videos like this!
You seem to do fine diving screws that way, but they do make magnetic bits which I find much easier to use.
So you took what's in my head and made a video to help my husband understand what I was trying to explain! After I watched it, I dragged out of the car that he was working and made him watch it twice. My next question... How long will it take for you to do all four of our cabinets?
Felicitaciones, trabajo muy prolijo, saludos desde Argentina !
Excellent! Can you post a link to the hardware you used? Thx!
Wow... very nice...your good.....

Using the dado gives you 1/2" to slide in a piece of steel to support the shelf. pots and pans are heavy
Normally I would agree however, he used a piece of 3/4" thick birch ply for the bottom - it's plenty strong.
Great job thanks for sharing!
Very impressive.
Very ingenious 👌👍

We have that same cabinet & wish to high heaven we'd have spent the extra $ and had pull outs in ALL from the git-go. Thanks for showing the work around on the door - that alone was worth watching! 😎
Wow, in my younger days I would have done that to my cabinets. My base cabinets have a small half shelf that is practically worthless.
Nicely done!
just what the doctor ordered! thx
Betty good idea
This was super helpful! Thanks!
Nice job man
Excellent video! I need this setup in my kitchen badly!!
totally awesome and well thought
So cool! I want to do that.
Go ahead and add another view Daniel!!!
Thanks!
I just started this today, test fit took the longest haha
Nice work! I wonder how much that would cost.
Adorei seus fur baby, lol. I talk to mine just like that. Thank you for inspiring me! I think I'd like to make your creation for my plant shelf? No? Ciao! 2:53
Great job!
And, I just subscribed! Thanks again!
Nice job!
This is great Daniel!!
StuffUCanMake thank you! 🙏
Very Nice 👍
Did you mean to cut all that extra boards?
It seems like you went crazy and just kept cutting and cutting and cutting.
Great finished product. Interesting you wore a dust mask but no eye protection. Thanks for sharing an excellent kitchen upgrade!
Can you tell me more about your table saw. I am looking for one. Thank you
This was a great video. Thanks for sharing. I still don't understand how you did an entire video without talking to yourself even once, LOL. I am constantly mumbling, or swearing, when my DIY attemtps are underway.
Col Williams thanks! Haha I edited all those bits out. 😂
I liked your idea with the doors but I wonder what you did about the small shelf in the back of the cabinet. Did you remove it?
Yeah removed it
How have these held up? I'm assuming the center support wasn't structural so it was fine being replaced?
Do you do cabinet rehab consulting? Charges? I have a 1910 that have cabinets that are probably original to the house. Would love to do basically what you did but also change out all cabinet doors to make them look nice but yet not new or prefab. Every cabinet man I've talked to says just tear it all out and order new cabinet boxes. I'll keep what I've got before I do that I think. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for watching! I do not consult, actually. My response above was mostly tongue in cheek. :)
I agree don't tear them out they are probably better made than any news one out there.
I'm working in a home right now, 1970's ranch, oak front cabs, but the interiors are all particle board and some in bad shape. I'm fixing them in such a way they'll look beautiful after I'm done with them and will hold up for decades after decades of more usage before anyone even thinks of swapping them out for new!
Silent movies were in the 20s. Also pull out shelves are super easy.
Shop Art Thanks for watching! 👍
Excellent video!!! BTW, from where did you purchase the drawer slides? Thanks.
Master Class A+!!
Imagine if we could work that fast!
New Subscriber, Nice Job‼️👍👍. Vinny 🇺🇸
I prefer videos with verbal instruction. But I did like this one.
Custom. Nice.
Hi. My husband and I want to add some pull outs to our camper. Is it possible to install the drawer slides to the base of the cabinet verses the sides. We can’t screw into the walls of the cabinets. Thanks for your help.
Doreen Hockley absolutely. Just do a search for under mount drawer slides. Cheers!
