Grandy Sliding Door Console (Modified)

Submitted by NicJT86 on Wed, 01/17/2018 - 00:22

My version of the Grandy Sliding Door Console. My modifications: 

- Length 6.5 feet long (instead of 90inch). Same height and depth.

- Bought hardware from amazon, purchased hardware is larger than the plans call for. Changed face frame top from 1x4 to 1x6 to create clearance for the wheels and top overhang. 

- Wanted a deeper top so I added a 2x3 between the two top boards. I did this also for looks! It stained so nice!

- Modified the mounting spacers for the rail to allow the door to hang closer to the cabinet. 

Advice: Pay attention to the size of the hardware. 

If buying door hardware make your door close to the same thinkness as a standard interior door. This will help them hang correctly and close the space between the frame and the door. 

Lastly, use pocket holes!
