The Origins of Shaker Cabinets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The shaker design originates from the Shakers that formed in the US in the 18th century. The Shaker people were well known for their craftsmanship and would use minimal materials in their work. These origins have strongly influenced the shaker style cabinet of today – good quality yet a simple design. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pros of Shaker Cabinets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Simple design<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The straightforward design of shaker cabinets means that they can work in the majority of kitchen layouts. What\u2019s more, their simple design gives the shaker style a timeless appeal which has proved popular over many years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low maintenance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s easy to clean a shaker-style kitchen. Shaker kitchen cupboard doors<\/a> have a smooth surface which means that they don\u2019t collect too much dirt and grease and look clean. This means that you can spend more time doing things you enjoy, rather than cleaning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can reflect your personality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Despite its simple design, you can still personalise shaker cabinet doors to reflect your personality. At Kitchen Door Hub, we offer replacement shaker cabinet doors<\/a> in a wide variety of colours to suit your kitchen and match your unique style. Plus, with a 6-year warranty included with all our kitchen doors, you can be confident that your replacement kitchen door will be of the highest quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cons of Shaker Cabinets<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Potential buyers may not like the shaker style<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you are renovating a kitchen before your home gets sold, then some potential buyers might not like shaker-style cabinets. This is because some, potentially younger buyers, might wish to have a more modern kitchen, such as a handleless<\/a> or high gloss<\/a> design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Might not be suitable for certain layouts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For some kitchen layouts, such as those with lots of columns, mouldings and decoration, the shaker style kitchen design might look a bit plain and boring. This can be similar to those that want a modern kitchen. For these kinds of kitchen layouts, you should choose something similar, such as the slab style kitchen doors<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
