Looks great! Can't wait to see them all installed! As far as the cab door in question, it looks like damage to me (but I'm definitely an amateur). What color are your walls--I really like it.

Your cabs are exactly what I want!!! Seeing how gorgeous yours are just reaffirms my decision. Of course I haven't picked a brand yet, may go custom depending on price. That small area looks like damage to me also, but I'm no expert. I know that I wouldn't like it.

Can I ask how wide your rails/stiles are on the cabs? (Is that the right term? You know, the raised frame part around the panel.)

What granite did you choose?

Where is the damage? If it is a door it can be replaced. I have Dura Supreme Dove White Cabinets. A wrong size cabinet had to be reordered. I was afraid that the color would be off but it wasn't. But what did happen was that another cabinet got damaged while installing the replacement caabinet. A company called Final Touch came out and did the touching up.

Ahhhh---yummy! My white shaker cabinet order is going in on Tuesday...I can't wait! Looking forward to pictures of your finished product.

I can't get enough of white shaker cabinets. Lookin' good!

Thanks, it is exciting! The spot is on the door (thankfully), but it is more like they didn't sand enough in that area instead of damage... The cabinet rep who came to measure, said that if anything came in the wrong size etc, he would be the one responsible. I hope their customer service is as good as he made it sound.

flwrs n co: The wall color is BM Grey Tint. It has only tinted primer and 1st coat so far. After cabs are installed they will come back to do final coat. It was very painful to choose the wall color! Too many grays!! I tried a bunch of darker grays until I realized I needed to go much lighter.

breezygirl: The rails/stiles are 2-3/8" and the upper cabinets are 42". I like classic kitchens (a bit boring to some, but...), so I am going with Soapstone and possibly marble on the island. I want a contrasting island counter, and I spoke with a fabricator today that works exclusively with soapstone, marble, and travertine. He said he has a environmentally "green" marble sealer that actually prevents etching! He said it has a guarantee. Not sure, hoping I can test it. He said it can handle permanent marker and not stain! If that is true I am going for marble!

I am about to place my order with Kingswood Kitchen and am very much interested in how your experience has been. The designer came up with a very nice design for me and the price seems fair. Customer service has been lacking since the initial proposal and I need to do some tweaking of the plan. The cabinet selection process has been very frustrating... I am hoping Kingswood will do the right thing with your blemished door.

I love the cabinet doors so much especially since I like Shaker Style Doors. I need to look into Kingwsood Kitchen cabinets since your looks great. Please let us know if Kingswood does the right thing by you. You can let them know that you posted on a public forum.

I may not get back to fixing up kitchen until closer to the end of the year since it looks like I have to remove the carpets in my Master bedroom and other rooms upstairs so I can breath. But this kitchen forum gives me ideas and lets me see that I actually like many styles but I still love the shaker style door.

Thanks for sharing. I can't wait to see your kitchen totally finished.
