When Louise from Bentley called us last month, her 15-year-old kitchen doors were falling apart. The hinges had given way, the finish was chipped, and she was ready to spend £20,000 on a complete kitchen replacement. Three weeks later, we'd transformed her entire kitchen for less than £3,000 with beautiful new kitchen cabinet doors.
This is exactly what we do at Premium Kitchens of Doncaster. We've been helping families across South Yorkshire save thousands whilst getting the kitchen of their dreams. Sometimes the simplest solutions make the biggest difference.
Cabinet Maker & Joiner Doncaster - Door Specialists
After 15 years crafting custom kitchens across Doncaster, we've learnt that quality kitchen doors can completely transform a space. Our workshop in Rossington has produced over 2,000 sets of replacement kitchen doors for homes from Thorne to Tickhill.
What makes us different? We're proper cabinet makers, not just retailers. Every door we create is built by hand in our workshop using traditional joinery techniques passed down through generations. When you work with us, you're getting genuine craftsmanship.
Our Custom Door Manufacturing Process
We start every project with a home visit. I'll come to your house personally, measure everything precisely, and show you samples of different wood species and finishes. No guesswork, no surprises.
Our manufacturing timeline is refreshingly honest:
- Initial consultation and measuring: Same week
- Design finalisation: 3-5 days
- Manufacturing: 2-3 weeks
- Installation: Usually completed in one day
Last year, we helped Margaret from Armthorpe replace her 1980s kitchen cupboard doors with beautiful shaker-style doors in painted sage green. The transformation was incredible - her neighbours thought she'd had a completely new kitchen fitted.
Kitchen Cupboard Doors - Styles and Materials
Choosing the right kitchen doors affects how your kitchen looks and functions for years to come. We offer several popular styles that work beautifully in South Yorkshire homes:
Shaker Kitchen Doors
Clean lines and timeless appeal make shaker doors our most popular choice. They work perfectly in both traditional Doncaster terraces and modern developments in areas like Lakeside. The simple frame design means they're easy to keep clean - perfect for busy families.
Raised Panel Cabinet Doors
These doors add character and depth to any kitchen. The detailed panel creates beautiful shadows that change throughout the day. We've fitted hundreds of these in period properties across Edlington and Conisbrough where the traditional style complements the home's character.
Flat Panel Kitchen Doors
Perfect for contemporary homes, these sleek doors create a minimalist look. Popular in newer developments around Rossington and Cantley, they're also incredibly practical for modern family life.
Wood Species We Work With
Oak Kitchen Doors: Nothing beats the durability and natural beauty of English oak. We source ours from sustainable forests in Yorkshire. The grain pattern is stunning and oak develops a beautiful patina over time.
Maple Kitchen Doors: Lighter in colour with a fine, consistent grain. Perfect if you want painted kitchen doors as the smooth surface takes paint beautifully.
Cherry Kitchen Doors: Rich, warm tones that deepen with age. Popular with our customers in Bessacarr and Cantley who want something a bit special.
Pine Kitchen Doors: A budget-friendly option that still looks fantastic. We've used painted pine doors in countless family kitchens across Balby and Hyde Park.
Kitchen Doors Manufacturing - Our Workshop Process
Our 3,000 square foot workshop in Rossington is where the magic happens. We invested in modern CNC machinery but still finish everything by hand. Quality control is rigorous - every door is inspected three times before it leaves our workshop.
Here's what happens when we manufacture your kitchen cabinet doors:
Week 1: Your measurements are transferred to our CAD system. We order materials specifically for your project - no generic stock sizes.
Week 2: Cutting and shaping begins. Each door is crafted individually using mortise and tenon joints for maximum strength.
Week 3: Sanding, finishing, and final quality checks. If you've chosen painted doors, we apply primer and two top coats in our spray booth.
The attention to detail shows. We've had customers from as far as Thorne and Stainforth specifically seek us out because they've seen our work in friends' homes.
Cabinet Doors Services - Made-to-Measure Solutions
Every kitchen is different. Standard sizes rarely fit perfectly, especially in older properties. That's why everything we make is completely bespoke.
Custom Design Options
Want something unique? We love a challenge. Last year, we created curved doors for an unusual kitchen layout in Edenthorpe. The customer had been told it was impossible by three other companies.
Glass panel inserts are increasingly popular. Perfect for displaying your best crockery or creating a sense of space in smaller kitchens. We work with local glaziers to ensure perfect fitting.
Hardware and Finishing Options
The devil's in the details. We offer:
- Soft-close hinges as standard
- Over 30 handle options
- Custom colour matching
- Brushed, polished, or matt finishes
Your kitchen doors will be opened and closed thousands of times. We only use premium hardware that we know will last.
Replacement Kitchen Doors - Transform Without the Upheaval
Replacing just your kitchen doors is brilliant if your cabinets are structurally sound. We've saved countless families the disruption and expense of a full kitchen refit.
Why Choose Door Replacement?
The numbers speak for themselves. A typical door replacement project costs £2,000-£4,000. A complete kitchen replacement? You're looking at £15,000-£25,000 minimum.
The process is much quicker too. Most of our replacement door projects are completed within a day. No weeks of living without a kitchen, no dust throughout the house.
Perfect Fit Guarantee
Measuring for replacement doors requires precision. We use laser measuring equipment and our 15 years of experience to ensure perfect fitting. If we make an error (it's rare), we'll remake the doors at no cost.
Kitchen Door Replacement - Professional Installation
Installation matters as much as manufacturing. Poorly hung doors will sag, stick, or gap. Our installation team has fitted thousands of doors across South Yorkshire.
Our Installation Process
We arrive early, usually around 8am. All your old doors are carefully removed and labelled. New doors are fitted with precision, adjustments made, and everything tested thoroughly.
Before we leave, we'll show you how to adjust hinges if needed and provide care instructions. We also clean up completely - you'll be cooking dinner in your 'new' kitchen that evening.
Common Installation Challenges
Older properties often have settlement issues. Door frames might be slightly out of square. Our installation team carries adjustment tools and can accommodate minor variations without compromising the finished result.
We've worked on everything from Victorian terraces in Doncaster town centre to 1960s semis in Intake. Each property has its quirks, but experience teaches you how to handle them.
Can Kitchen Cabinet Doors Be Replaced Without Changing Units?
Yes, and it's often the smartest choice. If your cabinet boxes are solid and the layout works for your family, replacing just the doors makes perfect sense.
We've replaced doors on kitchens that were only five years old where the customer simply wanted a style change. We've also worked on 30-year-old kitchens where the carcasses were built like tanks but the doors had seen better days.
When Door Replacement Works Best
- Cabinet boxes are structurally sound
- Current layout meets your needs
- Hinges and mechanisms are working properly
- Worktops are in good condition
When You Might Need More
Sometimes door replacement isn't enough. If cabinet interiors are damaged, or the layout doesn't work for your family, a partial or complete refit might be better value.
We're honest about this. We've talked customers out of door replacement when we know they'd be happier with more extensive work.
What Styles of Cabinet Doors Are Available?
Choice can be overwhelming, so let's keep this simple. We group our door styles into three main categories:
Traditional Styles
- Raised panel doors in various profiles
- Frame and panel designs
- Cathedral arch tops for special features
- Beaded edges for extra detail
These work beautifully in period properties and family homes where you want warmth and character.
Contemporary Styles
- Clean-lined shaker doors
- Flat panel designs
- Handle-less options with integrated grips
- High-gloss finishes
Perfect for modern homes or if you want to update a traditional property with contemporary style.
Specialty Options
- Glass-fronted doors for display
- Curved doors for awkward spaces
- Extra-tall doors for modern units
- Bi-fold doors for corner solutions
We love unusual projects. They give our craftsmen a chance to show their skills.
How Do You Measure for Replacement Cabinet Doors?
Accurate measuring is absolutely critical. Get it wrong and doors won't fit properly. Here's how we do it:
Our Professional Measuring Service
We use laser measuring devices for precision. Every opening is measured in three places - top, middle, and bottom. Heights are checked on both sides. Nothing is assumed to be square or level.
We also check:
- Hinge positions and types
- Handle holes (if you're keeping existing handles)
- Any obstacles like pipes or cables
- Door opening directions
DIY Measuring Tips
If you want to measure yourself for a quote:
- Measure existing doors, not openings
- Use a good quality tape measure
- Measure to the nearest millimetre
- Note any doors that are different sizes
- Take photos of hinge arrangements
Remember, we always re-measure before manufacturing. Your initial measurements just help us provide accurate quotes.
What Cabinet Door Styles and Finishes Do You Offer?
We offer over 50 different combinations of styles and finishes. Here are the most popular:
Painted Finishes
- Farrow & Ball colours (popular choices: Railings, Elephant's Breath, Cornforth White)
- Little Greene heritage colours
- Custom colour matching
- Two-pack polyurethane for durability
Painted doors are fantastic for creating a cohesive look. We've painted kitchens to match customer's favourite pottery, artwork, even their garden shed.
Natural Wood Finishes
- Clear lacquer to show natural grain
- Stained finishes in 12 standard colours
- Oil finishes for a natural feel
- Wax finishes for traditional properties
Each piece of wood is different. We select and match boards carefully so your kitchen doors have a consistent appearance whilst showing the natural beauty of the timber.
Special Effect Finishes
- Distressed finishes for farmhouse style
- Limed oak effects
- Weathered looks
- Crackle glazes
These finishes take skill and experience. We've developed our techniques over years of experimenting and refining.
Can You Replace Doors on Existing Cabinet Frames?
This is our specialty. We've replaced doors on thousands of existing kitchen cabinets across Doncaster and the surrounding areas.
Frame Compatibility Check
Before quoting, we check:
- Frame construction quality
- Hinge mounting points
- Door opening clearances
- Overall cabinet condition
Most cabinets from the last 20 years are suitable for door replacement. Even some older ones can work if they're well-built.
Modification Services
Sometimes minor modifications help achieve the perfect result:
- Hinge position adjustments
- New mounting points
- Frame repairs or reinforcement
- Alignment corrections
We carry out these modifications as part of our service. The goal is doors that fit perfectly and operate smoothly.
Do You Provide Made-to-Measure Door Services?
Every single door we make is made-to-measure. We don't sell standard sizes because every kitchen is different.
Our Bespoke Approach
Your kitchen doors are manufactured specifically for your project. We cut materials to exact sizes, create templates for curved or unusual shapes, and match wood grain carefully across multiple doors.
Custom Features Available
- Unusual sizes (we've made doors as small as 150mm wide and as large as 900mm)
- Non-standard thicknesses
- Integrated ventilation grilles
- Custom glass configurations
- Special hardware accommodations
One memorable project involved creating doors for a kitchen in a converted windmill near Tickhill. Every door was a different size and some were curved to follow the building's unique architecture.
What Hardware Options Are Available for Doors?
Hardware makes a huge difference to how your kitchen doors look and function. We offer comprehensive options:
Hinge Options
- Soft-close hinges as standard
- Heavy-duty hinges for large doors
- Invisible hinges for clean lines
- Specialist hinges for curved doors
Quality hinges are worth the investment. Cheap hinges fail quickly and make doors sag.
Handle Choices
- Traditional knobs and pulls
- Contemporary bar handles
- Integrated handles machined into doors
- Push-to-open mechanisms for handle-free doors
We have sample boards showing all our hardware options. It's much easier to choose when you can feel the quality difference.
Security Features
- Soft-close drawer runners
- Child-safe catches
- Magnetic catches for lightweight doors
- Heavy-duty catches for large doors
Safety matters, especially in family kitchens. We can advise on the best solutions for your household.
Can Cabinet Doors Be Customised?
Absolutely. Customisation is what we do best. Nearly every project we complete has some bespoke elements.
Popular Customisation Options
Glazed Panels: Perfect for displaying beautiful crockery or creating visual interest. We work with local glaziers to create leaded glass, frosted glass, or clear glass panels.
Curved Doors: Ideal for rounded corners or unusual layouts. Our CNC equipment can create perfect curves that would be impossible by hand.
Integrated Features: Spice racks built into doors, wine storage, or even charging stations for devices.
Size Adaptations: Doors for awkward spaces, extra-tall units, or period properties with unusual proportions.
Recent Custom Projects
A family in Bentley wanted doors that matched their Victorian property's original woodwork. We recreated the panel profiles and wood species to blend seamlessly.
In Edenthorpe, we created doors with integrated LED lighting for a contemporary kitchen. The effect was stunning - subtle illumination that highlighted the wood grain beautifully.
Kitchen Door Replacement Cost and Value
Let's talk honestly about costs. Replacement kitchen doors typically cost between £150-£400 per door depending on size, style, and finish. Compare this to £15,000+ for a complete kitchen replacement.
Factors Affecting Price
- Door size (larger doors cost more)
- Wood species (oak costs more than pine)
- Finish complexity (painted doors require more work)
- Hardware specifications
- Installation requirements
Exceptional Value Investment
New kitchen doors typically add £8,000-£12,000 to your home's value whilst costing £2,000-£4,000. The return on investment is excellent.
More importantly, you get to enjoy your transformed kitchen immediately. The difference new doors make to your daily life is remarkable.
Flexible Payment Options
We understand kitchen improvements are significant investments. We offer:
- 0% finance on projects over £2,000
- Extended payment terms
- Trade discounts for multiple properties
- Seasonal promotions
