Shaker Style Cabinets

Shaker style cabinets with a simple five-piece door, clean lines and a finish you choose, from soft white paint to natural wood.

The Shaker door has stayed popular because it fits almost everything. A flat center panel set inside a plain frame looks calm in a white farmhouse kitchen, a dark modern one or an older Nashville home with traditional trim. It is simple enough to feel timeless and strong enough to be built in many woods and finishes, painted or stained.

We begin with a Free Cabinet Estimate and bring door samples to your kitchen so you can see the frame width, panel profile and edge in your own light. We explain the difference between a slim frame, a standard frame and a wider frame, build the doors and drawer fronts to your choice and finish them in paint or stain that suits the room, with hardware and trim planned to match. Choosing a Shaker door is only the beginning, because small details change the personality. A narrow frame feels lighter and more modern, while a wide frame feels sturdy and traditional. Edge profiles, inside corner shapes and the way the panel is fastened affect how the door looks and wears. We show you close-up samples so you can feel how crisp or soft the edges are before you commit.
