FAQ
Why are Flatpax products so much cheaper ? Flatpax products are a fraction of the cost that you would normally expect to pay if you were opting for a custom built kitchen. This price saving is largely due to the modular nature and standard sizes of the Flatpax products. Do you custom make bathrooms ? No, however the Flatpax bathroom offering does consist of a wide range of products, colours and styles to suit your needs. If you find that there is a gap in your design due to your room size, you can use our infill cabinets or end panels as fillers if required. Remember, Flatpax bathrooms consist of no set design so the look and feel of your bathroom is entirely up to you ! I'm not much of a handyperson so how hard is the assembly and installation ? All products come with step-by-step assembly instructions and an instructional DVD is available at low cost. Flatpax products have been successfully assembled and installed by people with limited installation knowledge, however if you feel that the job is beyond you, you can enlist the assistance of a professional installer. Even in this case you will still be saving money. How can I ensure that when joining my benchtops I get a smooth finish ? In order to get a smooth and professional finish we suggest for you to take the benchtops to a professional post forming outlet and they will cut the benchtops for you and provide the joining clamps required. Speak to a Bunnings Team Member for help with this service. Use wood glue and silicone to join bench tops. How can benchtops be shortened ? For laminate benchtops, use any sharp wood cutting tools (eg. Circular saw, Jigsaw) and cut to the desired length. If the cut edge is exposed contact Flatpax Customer Service for an additional edge strip to be sent. Oz Stone benchtops can also be cut using any wood cutting tool. They cannot have the edge exposed, so the edge either needs to but up against the wall or a section needs to be cut out the middle. How do I reduce / increase the gap between doors in double door cabinets? To increase or decrease the gap between doors, the screw in the middle of each hinge needs to be adjusted. The hinges also allow the doors to move up and down, as well as left and right. Refer to your door installation instructions for more detailed instruction. What products should I use to clean my Flatpax products ? Cleaning products vary in their suitability for different substrates, so it is important to always test a product first before applying it to the whole surface. The best cleaning method for all Flatpax products is warm soapy water on a damp cloth. For more concentrated cleaning, use non abrasive cleaners and avoid cleaners that contain bleach.
