When it comes to cabinet refacing, many people wonder: “Can’t you just reuse my existing doors and drawer fronts?” It’s a fair question—and one we hear often. At Refaceful, our answer is clear: we always replace them, and here’s why.
1. They’re not worth saving!
More often than not, the older door styles use inferior materials and construction methods, and often are damaged to the point that they can’t be repaired. It’s more labor intensive and expensive to save an old door than it is to make a new one from scratch.
2. New Doors Ensure a Flawless, Factory Finish
At Refaceful, all of our new doors and drawer fronts are manufactured in our own facility—right here in Reno. This means we can guarantee:
- Perfect fits
- Consistent finishes
- Custom styles and colors
Our factory-grade finishing equipment ensures a smoother, longer-lasting appearance that simply can’t be matched with older materials.
3. Old Doors = Old Hardware and Damage
Over time, cabinet doors and drawers suffer wear and tear—swollen wood, worn-out hinges, misaligned panels, and even water damage. Reusing them often means dealing with all of these imperfections, which can ruin the look of your refreshed kitchen.
By replacing them, we can ensure your hinges, hardware, and alignment are all brand new, smooth, and functional.
4. More Style and Color Options
When we replace your cabinet doors and drawer fronts, you get access to our full design range—from classic Solid Wood Center Panel styles to modern Flat Veneer Center Panels. Want soft-close drawers? Hidden hinges? Two-tone finishes? We’ve got you covered. We can even match your color to any Sherwin-Williams custom paint, or choose from our exclusive Color Wheel.
5. Better Long-Term Value
New doors and drawers don’t just look better—they last longer. The materials we use are designed for durability, moisture resistance, and daily use. It’s an investment that pays off in both resale value and everyday satisfaction.
Bottom Line: New Fronts Make All the Difference
At Refaceful, we believe that a beautiful kitchen starts with quality craftsmanship. That’s why we don’t cut corners—and why we replace your doors and drawer fronts instead of reusing them. You deserve a kitchen that looks and feels brand new—because it is.
