It has been 5 years since we experimented with the different ways to use NatureKast and if I could figure out other ways to use it I would.  It has held up perfectly to the harsh beach weather.  We live directly on the beach and our NatureKast gets some sun and all the weather the gulf has to offer.  The color has remained the same and there has been no warping of any kind. NatureKast has truly been a great product for us and we would highly recommend it for any outdoor use. Mike and Janet Huckabee, Santa Rosa Beach, Fl Our outdoor kitchen is amazing! It has become the focal point of any get-together we have. It is the first thing that our guests notice and complement us on. We are so pleased with the craftsmanship and durability of the NatureKast material and its ability to withstand the elements. We have dinner and a cold beverage several nights of the week outside and just enjoy life! Janet Gray Destin, Florida - NatureKast has created a complete line of waterproof cabinets that look like wood but are actually not wood at all.

How can you tell the difference? These cabinets are made with a technologically-advanced, high-density resin system, which means they won’t crack, split or rot, regardless of the amount of rain, humidity, heat or other environmental nasties they may be exposed to. You can even leave these babies out in the snow! This company was phenomenal. From the measuring and design phase to the installation. Many ideas and affordable upgrades made our kitchen one of the best in our community. lynnahale Testimonial on Houzz Our company has been using the NatureKast outdoor cabinetry for about 5 years. We had several issues when we were using other outdoor materials and since going to the NatureKast cabinetry, we have had no problems and our outdoor kitchens look the same as the day we put them in, years later. Most of our homes are used for rentals here in the Gulf Coast of Florida and they take a lot of abuse, so this cabinet not only looks great, but is really durable and the maintenance to keep it looking good is just hosing it off.

NatureKast is a big part of why our homes are special. Chad Wandrick, Florida Contractor, - We love our NatureKast outdoor kitchen. It has not only added to the enjoyment of our home, but also its value. Charlie Van Diver, Miramar Beach, Florida, - I have been using NatureKast for our outdoor living areas for close to 8 years and would not go back to real wood cabinets for outdoors.car window repair kennesaw ga We also use the resin wood matching planks for our outdoor ceilings to match the cabinets. garage doors yukon oklahomaGreat look and no worries about the wood warping or fading like previous outdoor kitchens we have done in the past.timber door frame brisbane Terry Jones, Compass Builders, -double french door retractable screen

WHY CHOOSE NATUREKAST OUTDOOR KITCHENS Luxurious wood finish that thrives outdoors Imagine… wood that won’t warp, crack or rot If we haven’t thought of it, we’re probably working on it Award-winning & installer friendly Use your basic tools-of-the trade to installPros & Cons of Thermofoil Cabinets Previously, we have discussed the effects that humidity has on wood cabinets, as well as ways to control the humidity levels in your home. There are situations, however, in which wood cabinets may not be the best option. Perhaps you live by the water or you want to avoid the potential problems that painted wood cabinets may have and you want another option. One available option is thermofoil cabinets, but as with any cabinetry choice, there are pros & cons. There are many benefits to thermofoil cabinets, especially their resistance to moisture. This makes them the ideal choice for bathroom cabinets, where humidity is always going to be a factor.

Thermofoil is also less expensive and much easier to clean than traditional wood cabinets. Thermofoil cabinets are also available in a wide variety of looks, including high-end looking options for a mid-range price. White thermofoil was especially desirable to this homeowner because of the small size of the bathroom. Having white cabinetry helped to keep a bright, open feeling, where dark wood might have made the room feel smaller. There are also some particular limitations to take into consideration. One of these important considerations is that they are not heat-resistant, meaning that if they are too close to an oven or other heating source, problems can arise, such as the laminate peeling away from the core. However, heat shields can be installed (which are essentially just metal strips) between the heat source (such as an oven) and the cabinets, which will handle this issue. Another thing to keep in mind is that while they are incredibly resistant to moisture, they are not completely waterproof.

If the laminate becomes damaged in any way and moisture seeps in, the cabinet could be destroyed. One final consideration is that, since they are made of laminate melted onto a MDF core, they are heavier and a bit more difficult to install than traditional wood cabinets. The good news is that thermofoil cabinets are made far better now than they were ten years ago and the limitations should not be too much of an issue if they are installed correctly and cared for well. Many cabinetry brands offer thermofoil cabinets, including Aristokraft and Schrock. They are an affordable solution, but you will need to decide if the pros outweigh the cons in your particular situation.
