Warped Doors

There are three reasons why cabinet doors may warp or appear warped.

Doors may warp a small amount soon after installation because cabinets are taken from a controlled factory environment and placed in a different environment. Warped doors will generally straighten out after a new home goes through a complete heating and cooling season. The manufacturer requires that doors go through a complete heating and cooling season before replacements are considered. NOTE: A hinge adjustment will improve the fit of the door as the cabinet progresses through a heating and cooling season. 1. Improperly installed cabinets can cause doors to appear warped. The manufacturer requires that doors be tested for warp before replacements are considered. See step four. 2. Improperly adjusted hinges can cause doors to appear warped. A hinge adjustment will improve the fit of the door. The manufacturer requires the doors be tested for warp before replacements are considered. See step four. 3. The best time to test a door is after the complete heating and cooling season. To test a door, lay the door on a flat surface and measure, to the nearest sixteenth of an inch, the gap between the surface and the door. 4.
