The value of replacing cabinet doors

by | Dec 9, 2013 | Home And Garden

Often, replacing the doors on your kitchen cabinets is a practical solution because the cabinet cases are still in good condition. If you want to go further it is also possible to reface the cases at the same time. Replacement cabinet doors are a great way to give the kitchen or bathroom a fresh new look without breaking the bank. Not only is replacing the doors budget friendly, it is a simple project which can be comfortably finished over the weekend by anyone with basic DIY skills and a few simple hand tools.

Replacement cabinet doors are available in a number of different wood finishes that are very attractive on their own or they can be further enhanced with additional painting, staining or other detailing. Although it is possible to get replacement doors which are a close color match to the existing cases, many home decorators suggest that this is the perfect time to mix finishes. If the existing cases are light colored, they may suggest using a little darker tone for the doors and drawer fronts which are usually done at the same time. If this approach does not suit and you are striving for similar wood tones then with a little extra work it is possible to reface the cabinet cases. Whatever route you decide to take there are ample combinations available to ensure a great finished product.

If you are purchasing your replacement cabinet doors at an online DIY store, it is often possible to purchase samples that you can use at home to get the color match that you want. If you are going to have the doors fitted by a carpenter rather than do it yourself, they often carry a number of sample doors which you can use for the same purpose. Online shops usually have very clever interactive tools that allow you to see in advance what your doors will look like.

If the cabinet doors need replacing, it may indicate the rest of the kitchen needs a bit of a facelift. Many homeowners find that this is the ideal time to replace the countertop, lay a new floor and paint the room. By going that extra mile the completed kitchen will look as if it was totally renovated.
