Hi all,

one ID quoted me for solid nyatoh door for my kitchen cabinets.

what is the diffference in quality between nyatoh and solid plywood ? Is it advisable to use Solid Nyatoh for kitchen cabinets?

price wise, of cos is naytoh wood cos plywood is very cheap. but if u are going to have laminate over ur cabinet doors, choose plywood better.

also, naytoh wood is just an excuse for ur carpenter to mark up their prices unless he quoted u the same price for the 2 materials.

either that, he might have excess naytoh doors that he want to dispose of.

as for what i know,

nyatoh is from timber. solid wood processed from timber into plank then made to pieces for doors.

plywood = 2 types

1 mulit-layers of wood sheet process and stick together. normally thru cross grain.

or

mixture of mulit-layer of wood sheet with wooden block.

as for solid plywood... might the be 1st only ba.

price wise... kangeroo had mention, naytoh will be much more expensive.

these days not many people will go for naytoh doors. people refer bright colour for cabinets.

only those people who like solid solid timber made stuff will go for timber finished furniture.

i'm going for country theme probably thats why he suggested nyatoh?

i'm not too sure either. but then again, after spraying over the door cannot see wood grains already...

Helloo!

Well, for a start, there are different types of Nyatoh doors based on the carpentry works:

• Nyatoh Solid Door 
• Nyatoh Semi-Hollow Door (Finger joints, and overall frame plus additional parts are from Nyatoh Solid Timber but the remaining are empty, hence hollow) 
• Nyatoh Hollow Door (Only the frame and essentials are made of the Nyatoh Solid Timber, the rest is hollow. Hence, a hollow knock sound can be heard when you knock on the door) 

Nyatoh is basically a type of timber wood (light and reddish wood imported from Malaysia). Hence, when you are comparing between Nyatoh and Solid Plywood, you would need to compare between the different types of timber wood to have a fairer gauge. Solid plywood may just be plywood from different types of timber wood to make up the door, not necessarily from Nyatoh Timber wood. I hope my answer is clear enough!

I'm from U-Court Wood Products, the specialised wholesaler and supplier for Nyatoh Timber Wood, Reconstituted Veneer Plywood, Meranti Finger Joints, S4S Sawn Timber etc to businesses, merchants, retailers and carpenters. Hopefully some of the pointers are proven useful! You can also look us up at www.ucourtwood.com if you require any supply of timber wood.
