Question:

I have an appliance garage in the corner of my kitchen cupboards. The door is difficult to push up and also push down. Other than removing the upper cupboards on both sides, what can I do to make it easier to go up and down?

Answer:

You might try lubricating the tracks and hinged areas. If you use a good silicone spray lubricant it should make a difference.
