Which cabinet door style is right for me?

Raised Panel Cabinet Doors

Raised panel doors have decreased in popularity over the years but are still an excellent choice for homeowners who want a traditional look in their kitchens. Raised panel doors differ from Shaker doors in that the inside panel is raised so that it sits flush with the outside rails. Raised panel doors come in a range of styles with more decorative options than Shaker style.

Decorative Panel Doors

Some cabinet doors come with decorative insets, such as the coastal style below. From cottage styles or a more formal look, many manufacturers offer cabinet doors with added ornamentation.

Glass Panel Doors

Glass panel doors can add beauty to upper cabinets, pantry cabinets and display cabinets in your kitchen. You can choose between clear or textured glass to show off decorative items or family heirlooms.

Flat Panel Doors

As Charlotte grows, we have seen more homeowners asking for a modern look in their kitchens. Flat panel doors are the perfect choice for homeowners looking for a modern or contemporary aesthetic.
