How
we Build
Allwood
Solutions Ltd builds by hand. Our pieces are handcrafted. We use 3/4 inch
"Pure Bond" A-face veneer core plywood; we do not use the 3/4 inch
import ever. All of our face frames, the frame of the cabinet that the doors and
drawer fronts rest against or in, are solid wood; we do not use edge tape, thin
wood tape that is stuck to the frames or shelves, even our shelves have solid
fronts. We use English/Half Blind Dovetail drawer boxes that ride on side mount
full extension steel ball-bearing slides with a 100 Ibs. capacity.
Allwood
Solutions Ltd sands each piece starting with 80 grit sandpaper then 120 and
finally 150 grit. We make every Door and Drawer front to fit each cabinet.
Every
piece of furniture that has turnings, Lathe, work on it is done by hand. This is
an art in itself. Every turning will be a bit different than the other making
the piece more unique. Even the Cannonball Bed is turned by hand the ball is 6
inches the posts are 5 inches, all the detailing is done by hand.

We
use European Self-closing fully adjustable hinges, unless otherwise specified.
All of our large cabinets feature spin out levelers on the base to insure the
cabinet sits square on any floor surface, every cabinet has nylon tap in pads.
We pay attention to every detail.
