Pine dresser - want to fit glass doors

I have acquired a good quality, deep pine dresser. The top half will be great to store / display glasses etc but on open shelves they will quickly get dusty.

Can someone recommend where I could have doors made to fit this? I'm in the NE; and keen to keep the cost down, naturally. :)

Thanks

  • You'll need a joiner and as this is a bespoke job, I doubt it'll be cheap - if it's at all possible, as the dresser currently has "finished" edges which will need to be removed to create a rebate to hold the hinges.

    Might be cheaper to buy an old fashioned feather duster to flick around the crocks every day or so.
    Warning ..... I'm a peri-menopausal axe-wielding maniac ;)

    Thanks......... I wasn't necessarily looking for a cheap job, just a good price for a good job.

    A duster is a temporary option, but I still fancy doors to keep glasses that are in regular use protected.

    sliding glass panels will be much cheaper to make, and easier.
    just requires simple wooden guides top and bottom.
    Get some gorm.
