Contemporary kitchen with edgebanded veneer cabinet doors in Select Alder by TaylorCraft Cabinet Door Company

Modern, slab veneer cabinet doors have been popular in Europe for decades and the trend is finally taking hold and becoming more mainstream in the United States. The trend is visible in the proliferation of slab veneer cabinet doors on national kitchen and bath magazine covers and on cabinet photos on home improvement websites such as Houzz.com.   In fact, the current number of flat-panel, slab door kitchen photos on Houzz.com outnumbers any other door style category by 33 percent!
Even large U.S. home builders are putting these contemporary one-piece cabinet doors in their model homes, as shown in the Austin, Texas model home photo above with TaylorCraft Cabinet Door Company’s slab veneer doors in Select Alder .

Because edge banded veneer doors are being used in higher-end cabinet projects, the bar has been raised on the quality of veneers, core material and the durability of the edge banding.  Edgebanding equipment, adhesives and processes have improved substantially  in recent years and TaylorCraft Cabinet Door Company’s machines, materials and processes reflect the best the industry has to offer. If you buy your slab veneer cabinet doors from the right company, gone are the days of delaminating veneers, visible glue and sharp edges that snag your clothing.

At TaylorCraft Cabinet Door Company, we understand the need for a high-end, edge-banded, slab veneer cabinet door.  We build our veneer doors with long-term durability and overall aesthetics in mind.  We use state of the art equipment, top quality veneers and we offer edge banding in two thicknesses including 1.5mm and 3mm edge band for standard veneer materials.  We do not offer high pressure laminate or PVC edge banded slab doors; we specialize in top-of-the-line wood and wood veneer cabinet doors and we are experts at what we do.

Our veneer doors are made using the following standards:

  • We use a pre-heated product edge prior to gluing and applying the banding to ensure the strongest adhesion possible is achieved.
  • We pre-mill the edge before heating and banding to ensure the best and strongest adhesion and accurate sizing.
  • Our veneer doors are sanded through a specialized segmented veneer sanding process that follows the natural contours of each species for a smooth finish.
  • Our veneer doors feature de-nibbed and eased edges for better finish quality and feel, and smooth edges that won’t snag.
  • TaylorCraft Cabinet Door Company always uses a high-quality MDF core rather than a veneer core for product stability.
