Tough box construction is constructed of MDF or plywood panels that are in good condition and are smooth. In order to adhere properly brand-new veneers new to have a strong and smooth surface area.
Face frames that are constructed out of solid wood. A great wood face frame can anchor new doors solidly and accept veneers.
Internal hardware (internal storage elements, drawer tracks) in good condition. If the cabinets lack storage accessories or shelving or the drawers do not work in a smooth manner, then the expense of restyling may not be worth it.
