The door install has begun!!!

 
This past Saturday, spent a good part of the afternoon working on the doors for the entertainment center.  It all went really good until I got to the bottom four doors on the left side of the entertainment center. 
 
 
 


I think I made these doors too big.  These doors are two pairs of doors for each case or cabinet and when I measured the openeing, then added inches for the overlay, I added too much.  I tried everything to get the doors to fit.  I even chiseled out some wood on the face frame to allow for the doors to be a bit bigger.  Went and bought new hinges with a smaller overlay for the face frame and that did not work.  I may just have to build four more doors.


I finally moved on to the three doors above the four bottom doors and those installed just fine.  So I got 9 of 15 doors done.  Still need to try the two doors above the TV to see if they fit.  If not, I will have to rebuild 6 doors.  Having doors on the entertainment center totally changes the appearance.
