We use a big loop of self-stick velcro for our overhead cabinets.  The velcro is threaded through both handles.

Thanks for the input. Good to know it ain't my driving. So far my only issue are the drawers. The cabinet doors are holding for now. Looks like a bungee or velcro solution is in  the future.

Great job on everything! You know, that's a $3,000.00/month apartment in Manhattan - if you could find one that nice!

I don't use knives to much but the round end church key does come in handy. Someone has not only been busy but has put a lot of thought into the mods. Nice job.   Goose
