Kitchen Cupboard Shelves (wood with white covering)

[gidrae]

Hey all, not sure if this is the correct forum, so apologies if it's not.

I'm looking to get some more internal shelves for my kitchen cupboards. They are the white coated wooden type that are held by pins inserted into the cupboard interior - so just basic coated wood!

Can anyone recommend where I can get them from? Would B+Q or Homebase sell these???

All of the big sheds will be able to sort you out...it sounds like you have the basic melamine coated shelves.
It takes great care when you cut this stuff though, to avoid splintered edges.

Cheers John, much appreciated. Will the big 'sheds' cut it to size?

They will certainly cut long lengths to size for you (if you can find anyone not on a tea break) but their machines wont hold short stuff. Also a circular saw may be too rough for the material - best ask the operators advice.
Its easy enough to cut melamined chipboard though, using masking tape over the cut and a sharp tenon saw.
The sheds also do solid pine shelves - more expensive but stronger and more durable.

If you have standard sized cupboards, they will probably do replacement to fit. Look in the kitchen section of a large B&Q. Ikea also sell these in various sizes. Measure the one you have before going into the shop!
