Hi Everyone. I'm new to the forum. I guess I'll jump in and say what is happening. We have a typical ranch-style home-- smallish kitchen with cabinets that run under the counter like most homes. My husband recently got a hover-round (electric wheelchair) and in about 2 months time he has totally ruined the lower kitchen cabinets. It's just such a tight squeeze and he tries not to ram into everything, but it hasn't worked. He's also dented the newish (about 8 months old) steel-front dishwasher as well as scraped up the pantry door, etc. My concern now is the kitchen cabinets. The molding on some is cracked. One was torn from the hinges. I need to figure out some kind of affordable solution. Redoing the cabinets with wood would be a waste of money. Does anyone have any idea other than hanging curtains (sigh) that might be more durable? I was thinking maybe cutting out the center of the cabinets and putting some kind of painted metal grating or something. I don't know... would love suggestions. Thank you! Oh... and can steel dishwasher doors be un-dented?
