Our trailer had a closet with an open shelf on top. This allowed for a more open feel to the upper bunk, but this space usually ended up with stuff piled on it, looking messy and not feeling very open.

I built this cabinet to give us some more closed off storage space. I tried to make it look as close as possible to the factory cabinets.

The new cabinet has a front area with a door, on the right side is a pocket for the bunk curtain to store into when not in use. Behind the closed area is a shelf section with plastic bins for the kids clothes. Behind the shelf area is an open space for the TV.

I got most fo the materials (Door and solid stock wood pieces) direct from Forest River.

Looks like you did a very professional looking job of adding to the comfort of your trailer.

very good work,

Hunting is not a hobby. It is much more life sustaining than that.

Looks great! Now why couldn't the manufacturer think of that in the first place?
