Upgrade Your Hardware to Add Some “Wow”
You’ll be amazed at how much of a difference it makes to update the knobs, pulls, and hinges on your cabinets to give them a new look. We have a wide range of hardware solutions in different metal finishes, such as brushed nickel, oil-rubbed bronze, matte black, and more, that are influenced by farmhouse design, and modern, and classic styles
Replace Those Old Cabinet Doors
Replacing the cabinet doors and drawer fronts alone may provide a significant visual impact if the structural integrity of the cabinet boxes is still intact. To match the newest trends, we have hundreds of door styles, colors, and wood types to pick from. You can go for something classic like raised panel wood doors, something sleek and glossy like acrylics, or something rustic like reclaimed barn wood.
Use Stain or Paint for an All-New Look
A new coat of paint or stain is one of the most dramatic and affordable ways to give your cabinets a makeover. These days, painted cabinets are quite in. Bright whites, muted grays, rich blues, or striking black colors are popular among homeowners. Staining is still a common option wood tones like honey, cherry, or espresso give warmth and character. With a few hundred dollars worth of supplies, you might be able to complete this DIY project, depending on the size of your kitchen. On the other hand, you can trust the experts to apply your new cabinet color with a flawless, long-lasting factory finish.
Put in Accent Lighting
Nothing makes your “new” cabinets look better than well-lit cabinets. We suggest including accent lighting to make your exquisitely remodeled cabinet fronts truly shine, such as under-cabinet LED strip lights. It brightens work zones, which simplifies kitchen activities while adding ambiance. To help brighten the interiors when doors are opened, we also provide energy-efficient internal cabinet lighting.
Add with Appropriate Updates
It can make sense to think about a few other inexpensive changes to tie the area together while you’re updating your cabinets. It can make a big difference to replace old laminate counters with more affordable solid surface materials like butcher block wood surfaces. Investing in new flooring is also an excellent choice, whether it be traditional ceramic tiles or sleek rigid core luxury vinyl planks. Remember the significance of brand-new kitchen hardware as well, such as faucets, light fixtures, accessories for organizing cabinets, and more.
Optimize Cabinet Usage and Storage
Consider ways to improve the functionality and storage space of your cabinets as you modify them. To simplify and tidy your kitchen, install drawer organizers, lazy susans, or pull-out shelves. Enhance your cabinets with built-in charging stations, integrated lighting, or specially designed spice racks that meet your demands.
