    Our ZähBuilt Outdoor Cabinets Are Made to Withstand Even the Worst Weather That Broward and Dade Counties Can Throw at It

    One of the best things about our outdoor cabinets is that we build them to withstand the worst of the weather here in Broward and Dade counties.

    Since our cabinets are built to be outside, we have to build them to be the most durable cabinets on the market. Our cabinets have withstood hurricane-force winds, floods, and countless human spills all while retaining their durability, texture, and color.

    The reason our cabinets can stand up to any type of outdoor weather is because of the Accoya wood we use to build them. Accoya wood is a combination wood material of different pines that are pressed together to form a nearly impenetrable and durable hardwood block. This means that the Accoya wood itself is extremely durable and waterproof.

    You can trust our cabinets do not swell or warp when they get wet. The team here at ZähBuilt takes extreme care to make sure that you not only get the highest quality outdoor cabinets on the market but also that your cabinets will withstand even the worst of Florida’s weather.

    All of our cabinets are handmade in our shop located on Florida’s beautiful east coast. When you order a cabinet from us we know that you are purchasing an investment. As such we make sure to manufacture your cabinets to outlast pretty much everything else around them.

    We have families who have raised multiple generations of kids in their Broward homes using our outdoor cabinets. Everything else around their ZähBuilt outdoor cabinets has had to be replaced from either use or the weather; our cabinets on the other hand are still there as good as the day you first bought them.

    This is one of the secrets of our cabinets. Unlike other outdoor cabinets on the market that you will have to replace years down the road, our cabinets are hand-made to outlast everything else on the market. When you buy ZähBuilt you know you are getting the highest grade and strongest cabinets that money can buy.

    ZähBuilt Outdoor Cabinets Come in a Variety of Colors and Textures

    One of the best things about our outdoor cabinets is that they can be fitted to match nearly every style you can think of.

    We have had our cabinets installed all around Broward and Dade counties in widely different environments. From outdoor kitchens to storage sheds of all colors. We understand that one of the best things about an outdoor kitchen is building it to match your individual style; your cabinets should not be any different.

    This is why we build our cabinets with several different colors and textures so that they fit in perfectly with everything around them. That or you can have the cabinets stand out by selecting an off-color.

  2. 3 Steps to Picking the Right Outdoor Cabinets for Your Home

    Comments Off on 3 Steps to Picking the Right Outdoor Cabinets for Your Home

    When picking the right outdoor cabinets for your home or business make sure you follow these 3 steps. A majority of first-time shoppers often fail to pick the right outdoor cabinets and end up wasting thousands of dollars. The trick is to make sure your cabinet doors are of the highest quality before purchasing them.

    When it comes to buying outdoor cabinets there are three steps that everyone should follow to ensure they get the best quality cabinetry.

    1. Research the cabinet manufacturer to make sure it’s a high-quality product.
    2. Make sure the cabinets are designed to withstand your environment.
    3. Verify that the outdoor cabinets come with a lifetime warranty.

    Here at ZahBuilt we build only the world’s strongest outdoor cabinets. The word “ZahBuilt” itself is German and it translates to “resilient” or “strong,” we stand by those words and build every single one of our cabinets to withstand nature and the test of time. If you are on the fence about what type of outdoor cabinets are best for your upcoming project I encourage you to check out our collection or reach out to us to ask any questions.

    Step 1: Make Sure Your Outdoor Cabinets Are Built Using the Best Material Available

    This is a major step that people often overlook; make sure that the first thing you do is look at the material that your potential outdoor cabinets are made out of. Today there are tons of outdoor cabinet designs that are made out of everything from foam, wood, and even tin/steel. The trick is to look for the highest quality manufacturing material. While each of these outdoor cabinet manufacturing materials serves its own purpose you want to make sure you are getting cabinets that will withstand nature and the test of time.

    By far the worst material to build outdoor cabinets out of is hardened foam. This type of material is the cheapest to use and often can be made to resemble wood in both texture and weight. Unfortunately, this means that a lot of people make the mistake of buying these foam cabinets because they are cheaper. However, these cabinets usually only last for a couple of months before starting to warp or break. If you enjoy replacing your cabinets every couple of months then maybe foam might be a good choice; however, for everyone else there are two other options that should be considered.

    The second best material is metal. These cabinets can be made out of either tin or steel and are designed to be durable and long-lasting. However, the problem of rusting and paint flaking becomes a major problem in some climates. This results in people having to constantly maintain their outdoor cabinetry to make sure there are no chips or flaking paint. On top of this these cabinets are often made in mass-manufactured facilities so getting custom-made cabinetry is hard unless you are willing to pay a high price.

    The best quality material is treated wood. When people think of wood cabinets they think of the flimsy cabinets that you often find in your home. Outdoor cabinets are not like this in any way. A good quality outdoor cabinet is made with only the highest quality treated wood that will withstand time, nature, and accidents. Further, since these cabinets are made of wood they often can be custom-made to tailor fit each job.

    We only manufacture our cabinets using extremely tough and durable Alcoa wood that is cut to paper thin. Then we soak these individual paper slices of hardwood in resin before pressing them back together. The result is a piece of wood that is completely weather resistant and nearly indestructible. When you buy one of our cabinets you can rest easy knowing that you are getting the highest quality outdoor cabinetry on the market.

    Step 2: Make Sure Your Outdoor Cabinets Can Withstand Your Local Environment

    This is another part of the outdoor cabinet selection process that people often skip; make sure your potential outdoor cabinets are built for your local environment.

    Since outdoor cabinets are designed to be outdoors 24/7 then it is imperative that you make sure your cabinetry provider is building them to survive your local climate. Outdoor cabinets in northern regions should be built to withstand freezing temperatures and expanding water. In warmer regions, outdoor cabinets should be built to withstand warping caused by excessive humidity and be able to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight without fading.

    Unfortunately, many people just buy the first choice that comes their way without asking questions about their local climate. Make sure that you ask questions regarding the outdoor climate to your installation team, they should recommend a high-quality set of outdoor cabinets for your selection. If not then simply refer them to ZahBuilt and we will provide them with a solution. We can tailor-make cabinets for each outdoor environment and to scale to fit any size job.

    For example, here in Florida we build outdoor cabinets to withstand heat, humidity, water, and even hurricane damage. Other outdoor cabinetry businesses do not do that and only provide a one size fits all solution. This is impossible to do and will result in the outdoor cabinets being damaged or destroyed by simply existing outside. We believe that this is unacceptable.

    Step 3: Make Sure Your Potential Outdoor Cabinets Come With a Manufacturer Warranty

    Here at ZahBuilt we have seen outdoor cabinet manufacturers come and go. The cabinets they made simply did not stand up and as a result, they went out of business.

    A good quality outdoor cabinet manufacturer will make sure to offer a warranty on their products. This is because outdoor cabinets by their very design should be built to last an extremely long time outside without fading, breaking, or chipping. A manufacturer warranty will ensure that this is the case.

    This is why whenever you have a set of our Windswept Collection Alcoa outdoor cabinets installed we will provide a 10-year manufacturer warranty! We stand by our products and their quality because we build them ourselves in our own factory here in the United States. From start to finish we handcraft each set of outdoor cabinets for our clients.

    Other outdoor cabinet manufacturers can not provide a 10-year warranty on their products. The reason is because other forms of outdoor cabinets will degrade and warp extremely fast. For us on the other hand we enjoy building a product that will outlast pretty much everything else around it. As such we have no problem offering a warranty.

    We hope this article on the 3 steps to take before buying outdoor cabinets helps you make an informed decision.

    Here at ZahBuilt we love what we do, and that is to make the world’s best outdoor cabinets. If you are on the fence about what type of cabinets are best for your project then I highly encourage you to reach out to us to discuss the project itself; we will give you an honest answer as to what you should be looking for.

  3. 3 Reasons you Should Not Put Foam Cabinets Outside

    Comments Off on 3 Reasons you Should Not Put Foam Cabinets Outside

    Across Florida, everybody is building outdoor kitchens. One of the hardest selections during this process is selecting which outdoor kitchen cabinets are the best choice. A popular material used in lower-end cabinets is hard foam which is built to mimic the texture and look of hardwood. Well, there are 3 reasons why here in Florida you should not put foam cabinets outside.

    You should avoid putting foam cabinets outside for three reasons:

    1. A foam cabinet will warp in the humidity of Florida.
    2. The heat will ultimately destroy the foam cabinet if left unprotected.
    3. Direct sunlight can cause the foam cabinet to fade un-evenly which leads to an ugly look.

    Instead of using foam cabinets outside you should look into getting yourself some ZahBuilt outdoor cabinets. We offer a wide selection of the world’s strongest outdoor cabinets in many different shapes and styles. Further, we can tailor fit our products to fit your individual project. If you are on the fence about which cabinets are good for you then reach out to us by clicking here.

    A Foam Cabinet Will Warp in the Humidity of Florida

    One of the main reasons why foam cabinets should be avoided in Florida is because of the humidity levels we have across the state. An academic study published by The Department of Agriculture at the University of Florida in 2022 discovered that humidity levels are only increasing across the state. The foam cabinets you install today will warp tomorrow.

    One of the biggest reasons why outdoor foam cabinets are a bad idea across Florida is because of the hard foam reacts in a constantly high-humidity environment. Other places in the world will have high humidity during rain events but here in Florida, we have nearly 90% humidity year-round. While wood-based outdoor cabinets are fine with this humidity foam on the other hand will begin to absorb the water in the air and warp.

    This warping of the foam cabinets will cause the doors to not align. This misalignment can eventually lead to cabinets failing to open or not even opening in the first place. This problem becomes even worse if you accidentally damage the cabinet in any that exposes the underlying foam structure. Once water gets into the foam it won’t come out and will eventually warp the door.

    The Heat Will Slowly Destroy Foam Cabinets in Florida

    From the second you install a foam cabinet it will begin to warp because of the high heat we have here in Florida. During the summer months here in Florida it is common to see temperatures that rise well above 90 degrees Fahrenheit.

    In this high heat a foam cabinet will start to break down and warp. This is because when this foam is formed it creates beads of air inside the foam itself. These tiny beads of air when heated up will start to expand causing the board to slowly warp over time. The higher the heat the faster this process will take place. This was a major problem in the automotive industry for a while and resulted in automotive hard foam applications changing their standards.

    However, the process remains the same for outdoor kitchen cabinets. Over time these foam cabinets will begin to warp and bend because of the high heat levels. Unfortunately, here in Florida we are constantly exposed to heat that is high enough to begin to warp these boards. This is why when you are looking for outdoor cabinets for your kitchen you should look into durable hardwood alternatives. The hardwood cabinets we build here at ZahBuilt are made to outlast nearly everything else around them and are perfect for outdoor kitchens here in Florida. Check out our gallery here for inspiration on your next project.

    The Florida Sun Will Cause Foam Cabinets To Fade Unevenly

    Another huge problem with foam cabinets is how they fade when exposed to ultraviolet sunlight. Hard foam cabinets that are left outside will begin to fade unevenly which will lead to an ugly look.

    Florida is known as the sunshine state. Every outdoor piece of furniture here has to survive the unrelenting sunlight that we get year-round. If that piece of furniture is not built to withstand this sunlight and fade evenly then it will begin to fade unevenly.

    The problem with hard foam cabinets is that the chemical composition of the foam does not have a uniform consistency. This means that randomly some parts of the foam board will fade faster in sunlight than other parts. What happens is that over time you will start to see your foam board get ‘spots’ which can lead to an incredibly ugly look.

    In order to fix this look you will have to paint the entire cabinet over again. This however takes a lot of time and even then it is hard to make the sunspots go away with just paint alone. Most people have to install new foam cabinets multiple times which makes the cost of maintaining the look of their outdoor kitchen extremely high.

    Here at ZahBuilt, our outdoor cabinets are made with dense hardwood. We strategically put layers of hardwood on top of each other to build the most durable outdoor kitchen cabinets in the industry. When you buy a selection of cabinets from us you can rest easy knowing that your cabinets will outlast nearly everything else around them.

  4. 3 Reasons Accoya Is the Best Wood For Outdoor Cabinets

    Leave a Comment

    When it comes to picking the right outdoor wood for your cabinet your choice is vital to the longevity and success of your cabinets. By far the best wood you can pick for both durability and style is the Accoya wood that is used in ZahBuilt cabinets.

    There are 3 major reasons why Accoya wood is the best material for outdoor cabinets. First, Accoya wood is bar far the most durable wood that can be used outdoors. Second, Accoya wood cabinets can be custom fit to an individual project. Third, Accoya wood’s structure prevents both bacterial and fungal decay which plagues other wood choices.

    When picking the right outdoor cabinets for your next project it is vital that you go with a brand that you can trust. Here at ZahBuilt we pride ourselves on providing the absolute best in class outdoor cabinetry at extremely cost-effective prices.

    Accoya Wood Is the Most Durable Wood That Can Be Used in Outdoor Cabinetry

    If you are trying to get wood that will continue to hold its shape while also being resistant to outdoor weather then you can’t pick a better wood then Accoya.

    The reason that Accoya wood is so durable is because of how it is manufactured. Using a select blend of hardwoods Accoya wood is created by fusing several kinds of wood together to create the strongest wood on the market.

    What ends up happening is that the final product is hardwood that is extremely resistant to nearly all forms of outdoor damage. Our Accoya woods have been tested in service class 3 conditions, which include docks, outdoor paneling on boats, and extreme temperature fluctuations. The testing revealed that Accoya wood consistently withstands extreme conditions without warping.

    What this means for you is that you are buying wood that has been tested over prolonged periods of time in the worst conditions for wood. These are environments such as salt water, desert heat, and submerged in water. Accoya wood held up for all of these applications. As such it is more than equipped to be used in your outdoor cabinets.

    Accoya Wood Can Be Custom Fit To Your Individual Project

    Another amazing thing about Accoya wood is just how much you can work with it. All of our cabinetry here at ZahBuilt is made with Accoya wood due to its ability to be tailored to fit to each client’s project.

    When you are working with Accoya wood you can easily turn an impossible project into an achievable one. This is because of the extreme durability of the wood which allows you to curve or design what would be impossible structures when using other outdoor woods.

    Further, we can also design our cabinets to be exactly fit to match a certain color scheme. Often you will find that outdoor cabinet providers only give you one or two options. Here at ZahBuilt, we can easily shift things around to design not only the most durable cabinets on the market but also build you the exact type of cabinet you want.

    If you are looking for some inspiration for your next outdoor project or want to check out some of our previous work then check out our gallery. As you can see we have built some of the best cabinets in the business that are used by celebrities, musicians, politicians, and doctors from around the world.

    Outdoor Cabinets Made With Accoya Wood Is Bacterial and Fungal Resistant

    This is a secret weapon for Accoya wood. While most woods are water resistant they will still build up fungus or bacteria which slowly destroys the wood; our Accoya wood will not do this.

    In a study published in 2020, a team of scientists dug up an Accoya wood fence post that was left in the ground for 10 years. What the scientists found astounded them. Other woods would grow fungus, mold, and bacteria that would slowly destroy the wood while the Accoya wood was left untouched.

    This means that what often plagues other outside woods does not affect Accoya. Fungus and bacteria will destroy other outdoor woods but because of how Accoya is designed it actually is resistant to bacteria and fungus. This is one of the main reasons why Accoya is quickly becoming the brand standard for outdoor cabinetry wood.

    By selecting a ZahBuilt outdoor cabinet you are getting the absolute best outdoor cabinets at extremely cost-effective prices. Not only are our cabinets designed to withstand nearly any type of outdoor weather and abuse but also we design our cabinets to be fungal and bacterial-resistant.

    Making the Right Choice for Your Outdoor Cabinets

    By far the most important decision you can make for your outdoor cabinets is what type of wood you want to go with. While there are several choices by far the best outdoor wood that money can buy is Accoya and that is why we here at ZahBuilt use it for all of our clients.

    Our cabinets are known to be stronger than nearly everything else around them. When you go with a ZahBuilt cabinet then you know you or your client are getting the best choice for an extremely cost-effective price. Our cabinets are made in the United States and are designed for prolonged use while withstanding extreme environments.

    When you are looking to purchase the best outdoor cupboards or cabinets in the industry you should follow these three tips.

      Tip 1: Make Sure The Material Of The Outdoor Cabinet Can Hold Up to The Environment

      Unfortunately, we have seen on numerous occasions people and contractors cutting corners and selecting an outdoor cabinet that fails in the Dade County environment.

      It is vital that when you select an outdoor cabinet that can hold up to the environment of South Florida. Cabinets that are made out of foam or other weak materials will end up being destroyed within only a couple of months of use here in Florida. This is because of 3 major environmental factors.

      First, the humidity can and will destroy your cabinets if they are not made out of the right material. Here at ZahBuilt, we build our cabinets out of extremely strong Accoya wood. Unlike other outdoor cabinets, our wood is specially built to withstand humid environments. The Accoya wood is anti-bacterial and won’t swell from water saturation.

      Second, here in South Florida, we experience some of the worst winds in Florida. From hurricanes to bad storms you need to make sure your cabinets will stand up to wind pressure. Our ZahBuilt cabinets are the strongest in the industry and often survive category 5 storms without any warping or breaking.

      Third, one thing that you need to make sure that your cabinets are prepared for is the extreme sun that we get here in Florida. Regardless of what type of outdoor cabinet you go with you should make sure that the selection of cabinet material won’t bleach or fade unevenly over time. Our selection of outdoor cabinets for South Florida are designed to hold their luster and style for years.

      Tip 2: Make Sure That Your Cabinets Come With A Warranty

      One of the most important tips that you can get to select the right cabinet for your South Florida project is to make sure that the manufacturer provides a warranty.

      Here at ZahBuilt, we provide a 10-year warranty on all of our products! This means that when you buy from us you are getting the best in the industry protection for your cabinets.

      Other manufacturers can not offer a warranty on this scale. This is because their cabinets won’t withstand over 10 years of constant use. We often see other manufacturers of cabinets only provide a 3-year warranty or no warranty at all. If at the end of the day you want a cabinet that will withstand any and all use for over a decade then you should reach out to us to see what we can do for your project!

    1. The Best Colors For Your Outdoor Kitchen Cabinets

      Comments Off on The Best Colors For Your Outdoor Kitchen Cabinets

      One of the most common questions we get asked about our selection of outdoor cabinets is “what is the best color?” Well, that all depends on your style but we have a couple of selections that are designed to fit into just about any style. From there we can work with you to tailor our cabinets to fit your design.

      Generally speaking, it comes to colors for outdoor cabinets there is no best color. Instead, there are mute colors that are perfect as a starting color to then build upon. Some of these colors here at ZahBuilt are Sea White, Riverside Oak, and Royal Walnut. After you get some inspiration from these colors we can tailor our cabinets to your individual project.

      Here at ZahBuilt, we pride ourselves on providing the industry’s best outdoor cabinets. All of our cabinets are designed to withstand anything you can throw at them while also maintaining their beauty and allure for decades. If you would like to see some of our amazing work then check out our gallery by clicking here!

      Outdoor Cabinet Color 1: ZahBuilt Sea White

      One of our most popular colors is Sea White. This is because it is what we call a mute color and can pair with just about any style or texture.

      We modeled this color after a combination of ocean tide and sun-tempered wood. It remains one of the best colors you can get on your cabinets here at ZahBuilt.

      The reason why this color is so good to start off with is because of its ability to pair with any of your other decor surrounding it. If you want this cabinet to go into an outdoor kitchen just about any color of kitchenware, utensils, or appliances is going to pair perfectly with this color.

      In 2022 an article published by Li Deng in the journal Heliyon found out that mute colors are one of the best colors to pair with designs to highlight and draw attention to select pieces of furniture.

      This means that our Sea White color is a great cabinet color choice when you want to install the cabinets in a relaxing location where you want to draw attention to other pieces of furniture besides the cabinets. From outdoor storage cabinets to kitchen cabinets our collections are designed to be the most durable and beautiful cabinets in the industry.

      Outdoor Cabinet Color 2: ZahBuilt Riverside Oak

      Another popular color is our Riverside Oak. Coming in at a balance of color and mute this choice is going to pair well with darker upholstery in and around the cabinet area.

      Normally for outdoor kitchen cabinets, we see our Riverside Oak installed into outdoor kitchens that use black or steel appliances. This combination is great for accentuating the appliance itself and pairs very well with lighter-colored plates.

      You can see several examples of this pairing in our gallery by clicking here. We pride ourselves on providing the best paring colors for any project that you can think off and our gallery is a great place to get some inspiration before we tailor your cabinets.

      Our Riverside Oak color is part of our Sonoma Collection and as such, all the edges are polished black so that the entire cabinet blends in together. One of the best things about this black polish is that when the cabinet doors are shut you can hardly notice the hinges or seems of the door itself.

      If you want to grab some cabinets in this Riverside Oak color then I highly suggest you reach out to us and describe either your project or your clients. We can help guide you to the perfect pairing of color and cabinet out there.

      Outdoor Cabinet Color 3: ZahBuilt Royal Walnut

      Royal Walnut, or Italian Walnut, is an extremely popular color offered by ZahBuilt. Being one of our more popular colors this is one of our darker colors that remains a mute color.

      Unlike non-dark mute colors, we can pair this Royal Walnut with just about any appliance or outdoor furniture. As such we often see this color being installed in outdoor patios and on pool decks where the need for durable cabinetry and stylish cabinetry is tantamount.

      Normally we see our Royal Walnut color paired with stainless steel appliances in outdoor kitchens along with bamboo furniture. This comes out to an amazing rustic and sleek-looking outdoor kitchen that continues to look outstanding all year round.

      Some of our favorite installations have been with our Royal Walnut outdoor cabinet color. It takes a bit of time and patience to get the pairing correct but a good eye can easily determine when this aged color is called for. The only thing we ask is that when the cabinets are installed you send us a picture as we love seeing this color in action.

    2. Using Wood for Outside Cabinets in Florida

      Comments Off on Using Wood for Outside Cabinets in Florida

      One of the best outdoor cabinet materials you can use is wood. However, you need to make sure that the wood that you use is in fact pre-treated to withstand the hot and humid environment that we have here in Florida.

      Generally speaking, here at ZahBuilt we specialize in building outdoor cabinets that are made from treated wood. Our wood cabinets are made with Accoya wood which is treated to withstand the worst of Florida’s weather. Our cabinets will not warp or degrade in the hot, wet, and humid Florida environment!

      If you are on the fence about if one of our cabinets is the right choice for your project then simply reach out to us by clicking here.

      Using Wood Outdoor Cabinets In Florida

      Outdoor cabinets are a great way to add storage and style to your outdoor living space. They can be used for storing outdoor equipment, tools, and supplies, as well as for cooking and entertaining. When it comes to the materials used in outdoor cabinets, one question that often arises is whether or not wood can be used.

      Wood is a popular choice for indoor cabinetry because it is versatile, durable, and has a natural beauty that many people find appealing. However, when it comes to outdoor cabinetry, there are a few additional factors to consider before deciding whether or not to use wood.

      One of the primary concerns with using wood in outdoor cabinets is the potential for moisture damage. When exposed to moisture, wood can warp, rot, and become discolored. This can make it unsuitable for use in outdoor environments, where it will be exposed to rain, humidity, and other weather conditions.

      To mitigate this risk, it is important to choose a type of wood that is naturally resistant to moisture. This is where our Accoya wood comes into play. All of our wood cabinets are specially made to withstand the heat and moisture that comes from living in Florida.

      Because of this, our cabinets are designed to last a lifetime. You can rest easy knowing that the cabinet you get will outlast everything else around them.

      The trick to using wood outdoor cabinets in Florida is to ensure that they are made using the proper wood materials. This is where ZahBuilt comes in.

      What is Accoya Wood? Is it Good For Outside Applications?

      Yes, and Yes. Accoya wood is a specialty made to outlast any other type of material in the outdoor cabinet industry.

      Accoya wood is a type of modified timber that is becoming increasingly popular for use in outdoor applications. It is created by treating sustainably sourced softwood with a process called acetylation, which changes the chemical structure of the wood and makes it more durable, stable, and resistant to moisture and pests.

      One of the primary advantages of Accoya wood is its exceptional durability. The acetylation process increases the wood’s resistance to moisture, rot, and insect damage, making it well-suited for use in outdoor environments where it will be exposed to the elements. It is also more stable than untreated wood, which means that it is less likely to warp, twist, or shrink over time.

      In addition to its durability, Accoya wood is also a sustainable choice for outdoor applications. It is made from sustainably sourced softwood that is grown in certified forests, and the acetylation process uses non-toxic chemicals that are safe for both people and the environment. Accoya wood is also recyclable and biodegradable, which means that it has a minimal impact on the environment.

      Another advantage of Accoya wood is its versatility. It can be used for a wide range of outdoor applications, including decking, cladding, siding, windows, and doors. Its stability and durability make it well-suited for use in areas with high levels of moisture, such as near swimming pools or in coastal environments.

      Overall, Accoya wood can be a good choice for outdoor applications, particularly in areas with high levels of moisture or heat. This is why we here at ZahBuilt use it.

      How Accoya Wood Prevents Warping in the Florida Heat and Moisture

      Accoya wood is known for its stability and resistance to warping, which makes it well-suited for use in outdoor applications where it may be exposed to heat and moisture. The acetylation process that the wood undergoes helps to minimize its susceptibility to moisture absorption and changes in temperature.

      One of the reasons that Accoya wood is resistant to warping is that it has a low moisture content. During the acetylation process, the wood is treated with acetic anhydride, which reduces the number of hydroxyl groups in the wood fibers. This means that there are fewer sites available for water molecules to bind to, which reduces the wood’s ability to absorb moisture. As a result, the wood is less likely to swell or shrink in response to changes in humidity levels.

      In addition to its low moisture content, Accoya wood is also more dimensionally stable than untreated wood. This means that it is less likely to warp, twist, or bow over time, even when exposed to heat and moisture. This is because the acetylation process makes the wood more resistant to the forces that cause wood to deform, such as swelling and shrinkage.

      In summary, while Accoya wood is resistant to warping and deformation, it is still important to take proper precautions to ensure that it remains stable and durable in outdoor applications. By following best practices for installation and maintenance, it is possible to enjoy the many benefits of this sustainable and versatile building material for years to come.

      Our Outdoor Cupboards Are Built Using Custom Designed Accoya Wood

      One of the main reasons why our outdoor cupboards are so strong is because of the material that we build them out of. For years we searched for the best outdoor cabinet material and finally found it in a sturdy European wood called Accoya Wood.

      Accoya Wood is a popular choice for outdoor cabinets due to its exceptional strength, durability, and dimensional stability. This modified wood is created through a non-toxic process called acetylation, which involves impregnating the wood with acetic anhydride, resulting in an ultra-durable material that can withstand the toughest weather conditions.

      One of the key reasons why Accoya Wood is so strong for outdoor cabinets is its superior stability. Unlike traditional wood, Accoya Wood has a very low rate of swelling and shrinkage, even when exposed to extreme temperature and humidity changes. This dimensional stability ensures that the wood remains strong and intact, preventing warping, cracking, or splitting that can compromise the integrity of the cabinets.

      In addition to its dimensional stability, Accoya Wood is also highly resistant to decay, insect infestation, and fungal growth. This is due to the acetylation process, which alters the wood’s chemical structure, making it less attractive to pests and fungi. This means that outdoor cabinets made from Accoya Wood are less likely to rot or suffer from insect damage, ensuring that they remain strong and durable for many years to come.

      Because of this, we had to go with Accoya wood. Normally most outdoor cabinet makers prefer to cut corners on the materials but not us here at ZahBuilt. Once we discovered the Accoya wood blend then we had to use it to build our cabinets. There simply is no better material in the world for outdoor cupboards.

      Our Accoya Wood Is Perfect For Outdoor Cupboards In The Miami-Dade Region

      When you are buying outdoor cabinets and cupboards you want to ensure that they are perfect for the environment the yare located in. This is especially true for South Florida where the humidity and heat are extremely high. The last thing you want is to get a bad set of cabinets only to have them warp. This won’t happen with ZahBuilt.

      Accoya Wood cabinets are an excellent choice for the Miami-Dade region due to the area’s unique weather conditions and environmental factors. This region is located in southern Florida, which is known for its high humidity, heavy rainfall, and exposure to saltwater and intense sunlight.

      One of the key benefits of Accoya Wood cabinets is their exceptional resistance to moisture, which makes them ideal for use in areas with high humidity and frequent rainfall, such as Miami-Dade. The acetylation process used to create Accoya Wood alters the wood’s cell structure, making it more resistant to water absorption and decay. This means that Accoya Wood cabinets are less likely to swell, warp, or rot when exposed to high levels of moisture.

      In addition to their moisture resistance, Accoya Wood cabinets are also highly resistant to damage from saltwater and sunlight. The acetylation process creates a wood that is more stable and durable, reducing the risk of cracking, splitting, or fading from prolonged exposure to sunlight and saltwater. This is particularly important in Miami-Dade, where the cabinets may be exposed to saltwater spray from the ocean or intense sunlight for extended periods.

      Furthermore, Accoya Wood is environmentally friendly and sustainable, which aligns with the Miami-Dade region’s focus on environmental preservation. Accoya Wood is created using sustainably sourced softwood and a non-toxic acetylation process, making it an eco-friendly choice for outdoor cabinetry.

      Simply put, with our expertise and the Accoya Wood you can rest easy knowing that you are getting the industries leading outdoor cupboards and cabinetry.

      We Use Accoya Wood For Our Outdoor Kitchen Cabinets Which Provides Unparalleled Durability

      Outdoor kitchen cabinet sets need to be extremely durable to withstand the environment of Florida. Unfortunately for many people, they install general outdoor cabinet sets and see them start to decay almost immediately. Well, don’t worry because all of our cabinets are built to withstand the Florida environment because they are made with Accoya wood.

      Accoya wood is an excellent choice for outdoor kitchen cabinets in the hot and humid climate of Florida. Accoya is a specially treated and highly durable wood that offers exceptional performance even in challenging weather conditions. One of the primary reasons Accoya wood is perfect for outdoor kitchen cabinets in Florida is its exceptional resistance to moisture. The humidity levels in Florida can be quite high, which can cause regular wood to warp, rot, or decay over time. However, Accoya wood undergoes a proprietary acetylation process that alters its cellular structure, making it highly resistant to moisture absorption. This process significantly reduces the wood’s susceptibility to swelling, shrinking, and warping, ensuring that your outdoor kitchen cabinets will remain structurally stable and visually appealing for years to come.

      Furthermore, the heat and intense sunlight in Florida can take a toll on outdoor furniture and cabinetry. Accoya wood excels in this aspect as well. It boasts excellent dimensional stability, which means it remains resistant to changes in temperature and does not expand or contract as much as regular wood. This stability helps prevent cracks, splits, and other forms of damage that can occur due to extreme heat exposure. Additionally, Accoya wood’s exceptional resistance to UV degradation ensures that the color and appearance of your outdoor kitchen cabinets will be preserved over time, even in the intense Florida sun.

      Another advantage of using Accoya wood for outdoor kitchen cabinets is its remarkable durability. The acetylation process enhances the wood’s natural strength, making it highly resistant to wear and tear, as well as damage from pests, such as termites. This durability is particularly important in Florida, where the warm climate can attract insects and pests that might otherwise compromise the integrity of regular wood cabinets. With Accoya wood, you can have peace of mind knowing that your outdoor kitchen cabinets will withstand the demands of the Florida environment, including the high humidity, intense heat, and potential pest threats.

      Because of this remarkable resiliency of the Accoya wood our cabinets are capable of withstanding every aspect of the harsh Florida environment. From the humidity to the hurricanes, you can rest easy knowing that your cabinets are good to go.

This allows the wood’s natural beauty to shine through while adding a protective layer against the elements. Alternatively, if you desire a specific color to match your outdoor kitchen’s theme or décor, Accoya wood cabinets can be painted in any hue of your choice.

    5. Why Quality Matters in Outdoor Kitchen Cabinets

      When it comes to getting an outdoor kitchen up and running there are several things that homeowners need to get right. From the type of kitchen to the color of the chairs these are all decisions that impact the feel of your outdoor kitchen. However, one of the most important parts of getting an outdoor kitchen is making sure your cabinets can hold up.

      Generally speaking, when you are looking into getting outdoor cabinets you need to look at 3 things. First, make sure your cabinets come from a reputable manufacturer who specializes in outdoor cabinets. Second, figure out what type of material you want your cabinets to be made out of.

      Here at ZahBuilt, we specialize in providing our neighbors in Florida with the best quality outdoor cabinets that money can buy. All of our cabinets are made with the most durable materials and are tailor-made to fit your outdoor kitchen.

      Make Sure Your Outdoor Cabinets Come From A Reputable Manufacturer

      When it comes to getting the best outdoor cabinets one of the most important things is that you get your set of outdoor cabinets from a reputable manufacturer who specializes in outdoor cabinets.

      For Florida residents, ensuring that their outdoor cabinets come from a reputable manufacturer is of paramount importance due to the unique environmental challenges posed by the state’s climate and geography. Florida’s climate is characterized by high temperatures, intense sunlight, high humidity levels, and frequent rain, making it a particularly demanding environment for outdoor furnishings and structures. Here are some reasons why sourcing outdoor cabinets from a reputable manufacturer is crucial:

      First and foremost, Florida’s climate can be exceptionally harsh on outdoor furniture and cabinets. The relentless exposure to intense UV rays can cause materials to fade, weaken, and degrade over time. A reputable manufacturer will use high-quality, weather-resistant materials specifically designed to withstand Florida’s climate. This ensures that the cabinets remain durable, retain their appearance, and resist corrosion, warping, or discoloration, even in the face of prolonged exposure to the elements.

      Moreover, Florida is prone to tropical storms, hurricanes, and heavy rains, which can subject outdoor cabinets to extreme conditions. A reputable manufacturer will adhere to stringent construction standards and may offer hurricane-resistant or waterproof cabinet options. This added level of protection can safeguard the contents of the cabinets and prevent damage or costly replacements. In a region where weather-related challenges are a frequent concern, the peace of mind that comes with reliable and well-constructed outdoor cabinets is invaluable.

      Because of this, it is important to make sure that your outdoor cabinet manufacturer specializes in outdoor cabinets. Here at ZahBuilt, we do just that; we only make outdoor cabinets so we stand behind our product.

      Make Sure the Type of Material Your Outdoor Cabinets Are Made Out Of Will Stand Up To Time

      Too often people decide to buy cabinets made out of cheaper material that begins to degrade in the hot Florida heat almost immediately. Even steel cabinets begin to fade and break over time. After many years of research, we decided to go with the best material available; Accoya wood.

      Opting for outdoor cabinets made from Accoya wood offers distinct advantages that make it a compelling choice over other materials. Accoya wood is a specially treated and modified wood that has gained popularity for outdoor applications due to its exceptional durability and environmental benefits.

      Accoya wood is highly resistant to rot, decay, and insect infestations. This is achieved through a proprietary acetylation process that alters the wood’s cellular structure, making it virtually impervious to moisture. In humid and rainy environments like Florida, this resistance to moisture is crucial as it prevents the wood from swelling, warping, or splitting over time. Unlike some other wood types, Accoya maintains its structural integrity and aesthetic appeal even when exposed to Florida’s high humidity and frequent rainfall.

      Another compelling reason to choose Accoya wood for outdoor cabinets is its sustainability. Accoya wood is sourced from sustainably managed forests, and the acetylation process itself is environmentally friendly. By selecting Accoya wood, buyers can contribute to reducing the demand for less sustainable materials while enjoying a product that is both long-lasting and eco-friendly. Its low environmental impact combined with its remarkable durability makes Accoya wood an excellent choice for those seeking outdoor cabinets that not only look great but also reflect a commitment to sustainability and responsible sourcing.

      As such, here at ZahBuilt we only manufacture our cabinets in ways that will withstand the test of time. Our choice off Accoya wood has resulted in cabinets that can withstand nearly everything you can throw at them.
