I'm glad you raised the issue actually. I am doing a walk through tomorrow as I will not be happy if it does not line up and will request they…

I've been stalking their site and on all of their woodgrain cabinets the grain lines up. I am nervous now about ours cause I think it might be out too.

I would have thought that would be an automatic inclusion once you add the sink. Even if it is not standard MJH have a duty to disclose certain inclusions/exclusions with…

How are the doors hung if not with that closer as I can't see how they would close and stay closed?

12 years12 yearsmarkelwelmarkelwel posted:
McDonald Jones Homes - The new thread

I have read a lot of people suggesting to do that as it works out less cause your not paying MJH mark up on the system.
