Door styles

Built for your kitchen

Not chosen from a catalog. Your doors are built locally by our cabinetmaker, in the profile that suits your home. These are some favorites; if you have something else in mind, ask.

  • Shaker

    The timeless five-piece door, with a recessed center panel and square edges.

  • Slim Shaker

    Shaker with a narrow frame, for a lighter, more contemporary look.

  • Slab

    A flat, unframed door for clean, modern kitchens.

  • Inset Look

    The fine-furniture look of inset cabinetry, with a beaded frame detail.

  • Fluted

    Vertical reeding that adds texture and quiet detail, often on an island.

Finish

Painted, in any color

New doors and refinished boxes are sprayed together in the same finish, so the kitchen reads as one piece. Choose any color, in any of our three finishes, and approve a sample door in your own light before work begins.

Our finishes

Upgrades

  • Soft-close hinges

    Doors close quietly and gently, every time.

  • Dovetail drawer boxes

    New dovetailed drawer boxes on soft-close slides, replacing tired originals.

  • New hardware

    Pulls and knobs chosen with you, fitted and aligned to the new doors.

Is it right for you?

Is your kitchen a good fit?

A good fit

  • The cabinet boxes are solid wood or plywood and in good condition
  • You like the layout and how the kitchen works
  • Counters, backsplash, and appliances are staying
  • The door style is what makes the kitchen feel dated

Not the right fit

  • Boxes with water damage or swollen particleboard
  • Thermofoil cabinetry, which we don't work with
  • A layout you'd like to change, or cabinetry you want to move or add

Questions

Good to know

Is a Kitchen Facelift the same as cabinet refacing?

It's similar. Refacing usually means covering the boxes with a veneer and adding new doors. We build new doors and drawer fronts for your kitchen, then refinish the existing boxes in the same sprayed finish, so everything matches.

How much does a Kitchen Facelift cost?

For a large kitchen, a Kitchen Facelift with custom-built doors and drawer fronts typically runs $18,000–26,000, with the boxes refinished to match. New dovetail drawer boxes are an optional upgrade. Your written proposal gives an exact price.

See example projects
Who builds the doors?

Our local cabinetmaker, measured to your openings and built for your kitchen, not chosen from a catalog. They're finished before we start in your home.

What finishes are available?

Painted, in any color, and sprayed in any of our three finishes: Signature, Reserve, or Atelier. We finish a sample door for your approval before work begins.

How long will we be without the kitchen?

Days, not the weeks a full remodel takes, because the new doors are built and finished before we start. We'll give you exact dates before we begin, and we stick to them.

Can I keep my counters and backsplash?

Yes. The boxes stay where they are, so your counters, backsplash, plumbing, and appliances stay in place.

Begin

A new kitchen, without the remodel.

We'll see the room, talk through color, finish, and door style, and give you an honest recommendation, then follow with a detailed written proposal.
