New
Jersey Kitchen Cabinets |
Your New Jersey
kitchen is by far the most trafficked and most
beloved room in your NJ home—whether you’ve got a modest
one bedroom in Fort Lee or a custom built home in Paramus. By definition
a kitchen brings the family together for meals and social encounters,
whether its cereal with the kids before school or a tranquil glass
of wine after a hard day. Thus, the design choices you make while
remodeling your NJ
kitchen may not only dictate how your family
uses this crucial space, but also how they feel about it. (Just
think about how different you’ll feel in a cluttered New
Jersey kitchen space versus an open, cheery one!)
You didn’t make the decision to renovate your New
Jersey kitchen lightly and you should take the same care when
selecting individual elements. True, countertops,
flooring, and appliances all are significant choices to make early
on, but the cabinets
in your kitchen
in NJ actually have the most prominent visual impact
on its look. They basically add an identity to the room while also
serving its functional storage purpose. Since many New Jersey homeowners
from Saddle River to Tenafly are now choosing flow-through
designs, the kitchen cabinets make a more prominent statement when
people enter your home. The cabinets need, then, to not only complement
the NJ kitchen’s look but also that of your entire home.
From re-facing your current cabinets to installing stock or even
sleek European custom designed cabinets, there’s literally
something for every budget and every sensibility. Re-facing a cabinet
simply involves removing and refinishing or replacing cabinet doors
and is the most budget-conscious choice. If you’ve got an
older stately home with original wood cabinets, it can be a nice
touch to keep the time-sensitive details that preserve the integrity
of your NJ kitchen.
But if your current cabinets simply aren’t usable or just
don’t fit with your home’s current look, consider installing
custom NJ kitchen
cabinetry. Custom cabinetry ensures the cabinets
fit your family’s needs while enhancing your NJ design.
If you’re a purist looking for the timeless wood style, there
is a wide variety of custom kitchen cabinetry
in New Jersey to
choose from. Most traditional cabinets are wooden casings with
the doors attached to the front. Whether you want alder, cherry,
beech, hickory, oak, walnut or maple will depend greatly on the
specifics of your NJ
kitchen design. Painting the wood to coordinate
with both your New Jersey kitchen and apartment’s existing
décor, also makes sense from a design perspective. Just
make sure to use wood that offers paint-ready options.
When it comes to kitchen
cabinet doors in NJ the options are endless.
Slab doors are a flat door style with no raised or recessed profile.
Wood slab doors are generally made from several pieces of stock
wood joined with adhesive then trimmed to the appropriate size.
Slab doors come in detailed or plain edge profiles. A recessed
door has a 'picture frame' in which a flat panel is secured within
the frame. These panels can be grooved or have other types of decoration.
A raised panel cabinet door is made from several pieces of solid
stock lumber attached with adhesive, cut and then shaped with a
decorative profile. Less expensive varieties of raised panels have
wood veneers attached to plywood. Finally, routed (medium density
fiberboard) cabinet doors are shaped into the appearance of a raised
or recessed panel that’s then painted or covered with laminate.
Alternatively, you can forgo the traditional framed cabinet and
choose a full overlay cabinet or a frameless face frame. In a full
overlay or frameless cabinet, the cabinet door covers the entire
frame. This offers more of a sleek European look and characterizes
a lot of imported high-end custom cabinetry.
A new trend among New Jersey homeowners is to put open shelving
cabinets solo or adjacent to traditional cabinets to create a marvelous
display case for high-end cooking pieces or decorative spice racks
and NJ kitchen accessories.
