There are hundreds of ways to customize a shaker cabinet door, with different frame widths, materials, panel depths and slight variations on the traditional square outside and inside edge detail, and flat panel.
According to Kitchen and Bath Design News magazine, homeowners and kitchen designers are looking for Shaker doors with a “creative twist.
TaylorCraft Cabinet Door Company specializes in building custom, unfinished Shaker style cabinet doors in a wide variety of frame widths, materials and options.
We created the Shaker Cabinet Door Styles pdf below to help homeowners and cabinetmakers pick from some of the most popular options, including:
- 4S – TaylorCraft’s proprietary construction that ensures superior durability and stability over time, in 3/4″, 1″ and 1-1/4″ Shaker options
- Skinny Shaker otherwise known as Narrow Shaker or Slim Shaker
- Traditional 2-3/8″ frame Shaker
- Wide 3-1/8″ frame Shaker
- Variations on Shaker’s square inside and outside edge to add uniqueness and elevate the overall look
