Have you decided to add custom cabinets to your kitchen layout? You can do this conversion to change the look and feel of your cooking space. You are probably wondering which door style you should choose.
We want to help you make the final decision you won’t regret. We’ve rounded up the reasons why shaker-style cabinet doors are the most popular choice.
Why are shaker-style cabinets so popular?
Do you want to add special cabinet doors to your kitchen design? Maybe it’s time to learn more about shaker-style cabinets.
The Shakers were a spiritual community that celebrated its heyday from the mid to late 1800s. They lived lives devoted to simplicity and practicality. Part of this dedication has resulted in a trend towards homemade wood furniture. Shaker-made cabinets became famous for their simple, rail and poster structures.
Whether it’s a minimalist-inspired cooking area or one that says excess is more pleasing, there are several reasons why we feel the shaker cabinet works with any design option. Here they are, in no particular order:
Ageless Appearance
Shaker cabinets are out of fashion; It is one of the principles of a timeless kitchen design that will never get old. The simplicity of the shaker doors—almost like a flat-panel door but with a slightly raised border—is a big part of its appeal. A simple and straightforward look with enough detail to provide depth and interest. When you start with a basic foundation like this, your cabinets will look relevant for decades to come, with only a slight variation in their colour, finish and/or hardware.
It’s impossible not to love them
Shaker cabinet doors are used in both traditional cooking areas and modern cooking areas. Traditionalists appreciate the timelessness of their looks and may opt to use slightly more ornate doorknobs and drawer handles if they crave for more detail. Modernists, on the other hand, enjoy their clean lines and unbridled looks. Not surprisingly, a transitional kitchen design will often implement Shaker doors as a way to combine the simplicity of a modern design with decorative pillars or accessories on the kitchen island, hood or elsewhere.
They look great as a color or stain
Shaker doors take paint or colored laminate very well and both can produce spectacular results that will help you achieve the design style you want. On the other hand, the large panels on the door serve to highlight the beautiful natural wood grain patterns, so wood stains are also a rightfully popular veneer option.
Easy to maintain
For busy families and professionals, “low maintenance” is one of the most desirable features of any kitchen choice. The simple design of the shaker doors allows their surfaces to be easily disinfected. Without the abundant ridges found in more traditional doors that are known to trap dust, oil residue and debris, a quick wipe cleans Shaker cabinets with minimal effort. If a low-maintenance kitchen design is high on your priority list, we recommend choosing cabinets with laminate finishes. They can take a hit and are not picky when it comes to cleaning and polishing requirements.
Reasonably priced
Typically, this cabinet door style doesn’t blow up most of the budgets set aside for a remodeling project. Thanks to their simple construction, the price point tends to fall right in the mid-range. Not to mention, the aforementioned timelessness makes it a wise investment that is likely to save you the cost of a future remodel as the design trend changes from year to year.
If Shaker-style cabinet doors were a high school yearbook, it could easily have been voted “most likely to succeed.” Whatever your design style, it will fit stylishly with your desired look and will stand the test of time.
