Have you looked into the costs (and time) for a full kitchen remodel? It can be a little daunting, especially if you’re not yet that tired of the space. If you’re looking for a little refresh of your East Brunswick kitchen without as big a price tag, consider looking into replacing your kitchen cabinet doors. It’s a great way to give the space a much-needed face lift — sometimes almost literally! Sagging and misaligned cabinet doors are the bane of many homeowners’ existence.

The removal and re-installation of cabinet doors isn’t demolition-level difficult, though. No sledgehammers required! And given how difficult it can be to live without a kitchen for months at a time, this kitchen redesign can make your life infinitely easier. But what should you consider when you’re looking at installing new kitchen cabinet doors? We’ve pulled together a list of questions to ask yourself before you dive into your remodeling project.

Color (Mis)matching

Chances are good that your current kitchen cabinet frames won’t exactly match what’s on the market today. Between older styles and the wear and tear of time, you might find getting a perfect match color-wise to be a little difficult. A common decision for many kitchen remodelers is to opt for white kitchens. It looks cleaner and brighter, especially if your space lacks natural lighting. Once the old cabinet doors are removed, it’s much easier to strip any existing paint and repaint cabinets. The classic white kitchen cabinet door like the one above fro, CNC Cabinetry isn’t going out of style any time soon.

Dabble in Trends

If you’re a fan of the open shelving idea — but unwilling to spend all your life dusting — adding glass cabinet doors could be the perfect compromise. Opting for new cabinet doors that follow current trends is a cost-effective way to satisfy the magazine-reading Pinterest-lover in you. The same goes for bold colors, which you can dabble in without the huge price tag.

Updated Accoutrements

Have you always wanted soft-close hinges? Drawer pulls that don’t catch on your clothing? A knob that doesn’t reflect the exact decade you bought your house? All of these are great reasons to give your kitchen cabinets an affordable update. Image how easy your life would be if you could make your morning coffee without your headphone getting ripped out of your ears on a drawer handle.
