Shaker kitchen cabinets are our most popular style of cabinet doors. Shaker style cabinets are characterized by a five-piece door with a recessed center panel. Some shaker cabinets are very clean and simple, while others have decorative edges. The drawer fronts of shaker cabinets can also differ. Slab drawer fronts are often selected for modern designs, while five-piece drawer fronts are popular for transitional kitchen designs.
Clean & Simple Shaker Style Cabinets
Shaker kitchen cabinets are so well-liked because of their clean lines and classic look. The most basic shaker style cabinet door is a five-piece door with a recessed center panel and no additional edge detailing.
Combining the minimalist look with a touch of elegance, some shaker style cabinets include beadboard or decorative edging within the stiles and rails of the door. These more detailed shaker cabinets are transitional in style, lending themselves to complement a range of kitchen designs.
Our NEW Craftsman and Craftsman II door styles feature European full access frameless construction. Traditional with a twist, these doors are available in 14 textured finishes.
Although the most widely chosen color is white, shaker kitchen cabinets come in a variety of different stains and paints. Stained shaker cabinets offer the ability to see the natural wood grains of the cabinet through the stain. Painted shaker cabinets offer a clean, consistent look in attractive colors such as gray, off-white, navy, and more.
With our Shaker vs. Shaker II (as well as other Shaker styles- Colonial, Craftsman, and Lombard), the difference lies in the cabinet drawer fronts. Our Shaker styles have one-piece slab drawer fronts, while Shaker II has shaker drawer fronts with a five-piece door and recessed center panel.
