Cabinetry took on 13 tough KCMA tests and passed them all...Beautifully!

• Shelves and bottoms are loaded at 15 pounds per square foot to ensure no excessive deflection or visible sign of joint separation or failure.

• Mounted wall cabinets are loaded to ensure that the cabinet will accept net loading in compliance with ANSI A161.1–2000 requirements.

• A load of up to 250 pounds is applied against the inside of cabinet fronts to ensure reliable front joints.

• A 3 pound steel ball is “drop tested” against shelves, cabinet bottoms and drawer bottoms to ensure cabinets will withstand dropping of cans

and other items.

• Cabinets are impact tested by striking the center of a closed and open door with a 10 pound sand bag.

• Cabinet doors are weighted with 65 pounds and operated 10 times to test the ability of the door and hinges to withstand loading.

• Doors are opened and closed for 25,000 cycles to ensure durability under the stress of normal usage.

• Drawers and drawer mechanisms are tested at 15 pounds per square foot and operated through 25,000 opening and closing cycles to assure

durability.

• A 3 pound weight is dropped 10 times against drawer assembly to ensure that drawer front assembly will withstand the impact of closing.

• Cabinets are hot box tested at temperatures up to 120˚F to ensure finish will withstand high heat.

• Cabinets are cycle tested at temperatures ranging from -5˚F to + 120˚F to ensure finish will withstand temperature changes.

• A 24–hour soap and water solution test checks finish ability to withstand exposure to detergents and moisture.

• Finish is exposed to vinegar, grape juice, olive oil, lemon juice, 100 proof alcohol and more to ensure no appreciable discoloration, stain or

whitening of the finish.
