Repair or replace tambour on microwave cabinet
The cabinet area in my galley for the microwave oven has a tambour door that closes over it by pulling down like a garage door. Its become difficult to operate, I think because the tambour slats have warped and bowed a little, which is visible when it is closed.
I'm contemplating replacing the tambour with something else such as a solid door that swings up and out, then retracts in a horizontal position above the microwave. If you know what a barrister bookcase is, you get the idea.
Then again, since the tambour just rides up into a horizontal slot and doesn't coil into a tempermental ram's horn, maybe it can be restored to proper operation. Anybody fixed or replaced this door with something else?
