Recessed-panel cabinet doors feature a simple doorframe with a recessed panel in the middle. Shaker doors are actually a type of recessed-panel door, in addition to cabinets with glass or decorative boards as the center panel. Depending on the finish and hardware you choose, recessed-panel doors can work well in many different kitchen styles.
Flat-panel cabinet doors, also called slab doors, are the go-to for modern style kitchens. Made with a single slab of wood or particleboard, flat-panel cabinet doors do not have a frame or center panel like other door styles. Matching drawer fronts are flat and plain as well. Matte painted finishes look soft and clean, while glossy finishes add sophistication.
In addition to new cabinet doors and drawers, you can also create different looks with new cabinet hardware, which is included in our cabinet makeover service.
Knobs and handles are popular choices for cabinet pulls. We can install the handles horizontally or vertically to suit your preference. Side-mount pulls, which attach to the edge of the doorframe, and center-mount pulls, which we install in the center of the door, are also options. Each provides a different look, so visualize each style before making a final decision.
Other cabinet hardware options include hinges and drawer slides. Ball-bearing hinges are the most common type of hinge and likely what you already have on your current cabinets. Soft-close hinges are a bit more expensive but prevent your doors from slamming. Finally, drawer slides help cabinet drawers slide in and out easily without wearing out.
Shaker cabinet doors are one of the most popular cabinet styles. The shaker style offers a minimalist look that complements just about any kitchen. Featuring a flat frame with a slightly recessed center panel, shaker cabinet doors are typically made from medium-density fiberboard (MDF) or solid wood, with MDF being more affordable. Wood finishes work well for a traditional or rustic look, while painted finishes, such as white or gray, create a more casual or modern look.
Raised-panel cabinet doors have a center panel that’s raised to the same height as the doorframe. A recessed border between the frame and the center panel has space for decorative carved detailing, which will also be featured on the drawer fronts. Generally, the more elaborate the detail, the more traditional the style. Affordable and high quality, raised-panel is the most common type of cabinet doors.
Glass-insert cabinet doors have glass panels in the center of the door frame. Offering a peek inside the cabinet, glass-insert doors are great for showing off beautiful, coordinated dishes and glassware.
Glass inserts can be completely transparent and clear, or come in more opaque options with etching or frosting. When choosing your doors and glass insert, consider the overall style of your kitchen. Frosted glass with painted doors lend your kitchen a contemporary look, while etched glass with a wood finish on the doors feels more traditional.
Glass panels are easy to clean with standard glass cleaner to remove any fingerprints or water spots.
