Why cut off the hallway. What to consider when ordering furniture

I am not in the mood, by inertia I go to order, because I need to help the client with a curious problem: I put a hallway, then door, and later it turned out that the door hits the hallway, or rather the cabinet handles, every time the door is opened normally. "What can be done?" - asks. Answered as the most "normal" doctor:"Only cut, the last exit!" - she agreed.

I wanted to saw off the handles on the doors, but the number did not work, because when fully opened, even with the handles unscrewed, the front doors rested against the front of the drawer and everything that came up - disassemble the hallway and cut 3-4 cm of chipboard around the entire perimeter of the upper bedside table. In the end, I set my sights on this. Before that, the structure had to be emptied, laid on its side and completely disassembled.

The detached cabinet is stuffed with confirmations on all sides, which is not surprising - his friend put together a good one. This means that after cutting all the holes for confirmations had to be re-drilled. And then suddenly it dawned on me why I bought a 5 mm drill last week, which I didn't really understand how and where I was going to use it. Intuition!

At the same time, it became possible to experience brand new jigsaw, which I bought recently and has not yet really "run in". A detailed overview of its capabilities described HERE.He put the file down for a clean cut, and calmly walked on all sides. At the end, I also sawed off the shelf that was inside.

I liked the quality of the cut, and this was with the pendulum turned on to one, which should have slightly worsened the quality! I didn't even go through the sandpaper then, just erased the line and started assembling.

Of course, there was a lot of fuss and dust, even the hostess, several times burst into a burst of automatic sneezes. Later it turned out that the disassembled bedside table is much more difficult to return to its place than to remove and disassemble, since at the end it must be attached to the wall so that it does not fall, and there are only two hands. Somehow it turned out.

If we compare with the first picture, then after assembly the door is already 4 cm short of the suspended bedside table. The hostess was pleased and I was with her, except for fatigue and unnoticed heavy feelings in the heart. Everything, you can go home and prepare for a new day of unexpected difficulties of blessings.
