Hmm, I don't know about steaming the doors. I've just spent two hours yesterday sealing the viv to stop the moisture from getting into the wood so steaming the doors does sound like a risk : /

Haven't tried putting the plastic things into hot water yet though, as planned yesterday was spent on the viv so there wasn't any time left. Plus I couldn't be bothered with them X ) But I will do, see what it does... or doesn't do.

Just me and my zoo.

yeah looking at them they are used for this as chipboard will just crumble when screwed

dont steam the doors it will make the chipboard expand and become brittle and it will also lift the laminate
