Title: Well, I think I will...just go ahead and ask
Post by: DE on January 13, 2018, 07:12:46 PM

Have the opportunity to acquire this cabinet at a good price. My question is if I put it on a covered patio with no possibility of rain coming in contact with it, would the humidity/moisture in air negatively impact the wood doors? Thanks for your thoughts.
In the Dallas area.

nice cabinet. I would think if you seal the wood, you should be good.

If the wood is sealed, I think you will be OK.  If not, I would seal with polyurethane.  Also, I assume the wood is plywood.  If it is solid wood, look out.

Sometimes I get a fine mist/fog that covers everything that is housed in Fort BBQ (gazebo).There is a 22" overhang above and a wall behind so one would think, protected - not.  It's a once or twice a year occurrence. You may or may not have similar

conditions. The fine water droplets are very penetrating and may cause damage to unprotected wood especially if not immediately removed..

An other consideration is,does it have some form of ventilation as in gaps around the doors or holes?
