Introduction

Your kitchen doors set the tone for your entire space. From modern gloss panels to classic shaker doors, the right choice balances style, function, and durability. This guide helps you pick the perfect doors for your bespoke kitchen.


Why Kitchen Doors Matter

Kitchen doors are more than cabinet covers — they define your kitchen’s style, protect your storage, and influence light and space. Bespoke doors let you tailor every detail to your home and lifestyle.


Choosing the Right Material

  • Solid Wood: Timeless, durable, can be painted or stained; ideal for traditional kitchens.

  • MDF: Smooth, easy to paint, cost-effective; works well for modern or transitional kitchens.

  • Gloss / Lacquered: Sleek, reflective surfaces for contemporary designs; easy to clean.

  • Laminate / Veneer: Durable, available in many textures; mimics natural wood affordably.

💡 Tip: High-traffic kitchens benefit from durable finishes like lacquered or laminate doors.


Matching Doors to Your Style

  • Modern / Contemporary: Flat panels, matte or gloss finishes.

  • Classic / Traditional: Shaker-style doors with detailing.

  • Transitional: Blends modern and classic elements; painted MDF with subtle features.

Tips for Choosing Handles and Accessories

Handles and accessories are the finishing touches that make a kitchen feel complete:

  1. Match Handles to Doors: Classic doors suit traditional handles (brass, bronze); modern doors suit sleek bar pulls or integrated handles.

  2. Comfort & Grip: Handles should feel comfortable and be sized proportionally to doors/drawers.

  3. Functionality: Use durable materials in high-use areas; ensure handles suit heavy drawers.

  4. Consistent Finish: Keep finishes consistent across cabinets, appliances, and taps.

  5. Placement Matters: Drawers horizontally, doors vertically, tall cabinets with longer pulls.

  6. Accessories Count: Soft-close hinges, cutlery trays, and modular inserts add both function and luxury.

  7. Test Before You Buy: Check samples or visit a showroom to see how they feel and look with your doors.

Maintaining Your Kitchen Doors

  • Check hinges and handles regularly to keep doors operating smoothly.
