One posible solution is to add a ComponentListener to the
JFrame that implements ... (struggles to remember) ...
componentResized().
Inside componentResized(), check the size of your JFrame,
and if it is smaller than your preferred minimal dimension,
resize it up to your minimum.
// in the constructor, perhaps, or initialization routine
addComponentListener(
  newComponentAdapter()
    public void componentMoved(ComponentEvent e)
        Dimension size = e.getComponent().getSize();
        size.width = Math.max(size.width, myMinimalWidth);
        size.height = Math.max(size.height, myMinimalHeight);
        e.getComponent.setSize(size);
  }); Pity there's no setMinimumSize() like the JComponent class.
Best of luck !
