Door and drawer problems we fix in Plainfield
If your Plainfield kitchen has solid cabinet boxes but doors that are dated, warped or peeling, you do not need new cabinets. We replace the doors and drawer fronts, fit new hardware and finish the frames to match.
Warped doors that won't close flat
When a door has bowed, adjustment cannot pull it straight. We make a new one to fit the opening.
Cracked or split panels
A crack across a center panel or a loose rail usually means a new door. We match the style of the rest or replace the full set.
A modern, handle-free look
Flat fronts with no visible knobs suit a modern kitchen. We use profiles or push hardware that work with your boxes.
Old exposed hinges
Surface-mounted hinges from earlier decades loosen and look dated. New doors are bored for concealed, adjustable hinges, usually soft-close.
Doors that no longer match after an addition
New doors and fronts for every cabinet, old and new, make a mixed kitchen look like one set.
Thermofoil peeling off the doors
Once the film lifts at the edges it keeps going. Replacement doors in a paintable material are the lasting answer.
Want glass-front uppers
Glass inserts in selected uppers show off dishes and add light. We finish the cabinet interior so it looks right through the glass.
What the work covers
- Measuring every openingEach door and drawer opening is measured, with the overlay and hinge type recorded.
- Door and finish selectionDoor samples and finish chips help you pick the look in your own kitchen.
- Hinge boringHinge cups are bored in the right place for your cabinet type and overlay.
- Removing old doors and frontsOld doors, drawer fronts and hardware come off and we haul them away.
- Finishing the face framesWe paint or stain the existing boxes on site so they match the new fronts.
- Optional glass doors and trimWe can include a few glass doors and new trim while we are installing.
- Final adjustmentA last pass over every door and drawer for gaps, alignment and closing.
Options to choose from
Glass insertsGlass panels in the door frame to show dishes or add light.
Rigid thermofoil and laminateEasy-clean surfaces for solid colors and wood looks; kept away from direct oven heat.
Shaker doorsSimple frame-and-panel doors that suit both older and newer kitchens.
Inset, partial and full overlayHow much the door covers the frame changes the look; full overlay looks most current.
Solid hardwoodMaple, oak, cherry or hickory doors for a stained finish where the grain should show.

Cabinet Door & Drawer Front Replacement questions from Plainfield homeowners
Can I just replace the doors on my cabinets?
Yes, if the boxes are sound. We make doors and drawer fronts to fit your openings and finish the frames to match.
New doors or refacing: what's the difference?
New doors leave the face frames in place and we paint or stain them. Refacing also covers the frames and ends with new veneer.
What door styles are popular now?
Plain Shaker, narrow-rail Shaker and slab doors, in warm whites, greens and natural wood.
Can you replace just one or two doors?
We can, and on painted cabinets the match is easy. On aged stain a single new door may read slightly different.
How long does cabinet door replacement take?
A few weeks for the doors to be built, then a short install. You keep using the kitchen throughout.
Plainfield contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
Village business license ($25 annually) applies to corporate, retail and home businesses. We take care of that before work starts.
Do you work in my part of Plainfield?
Yes. Our crews work across Plainfield — ZIP 60544, 60585, 60586, 60543 — and nearby Bolingbrook, Naperville, Aurora.
