Are Tambour Doors noisy?

As above really. I’m just in the process of building the cabinets for my new van. And was gonna fit these. However I don’t want a rattling interior and they look like they’ll make a racket. If anyone can shine any light before I go that route. That would be awesome. Thanks.

Strips of Tesa wiring harness tape in the runners solved any rattles on mine

I have never fitted them but have them in our van and never had a problem with them rattling maybe because so much is packed in the cupboards

No, I have one horizontal and one vertical. No problems other than learning not to put very small items near the opening which houses the door when it’s open.
They can be pulled inside and difficult to remove.
You only do it once!

Definitely this on sideways opening tambour doors!

We made the mistake once and after lots of cursing and grazed knuckles managed to tease them open. Never again will we allow loose items to be stowed behind them!

Not that I have noticed, but then I am running knobbly tyres and a snorkel!

We have 3 tambours in our van. No noise from any of them.

Yes... they are bloody noisy if played correctly ...
