New Materials for IKEA Fronts – 2019
At Dendra Doors we go out of our way to make sure you can customize your IKEA cabinets in as many ways possible. As a result, our selection can get a bit overwhelming. On the following pages you will find all of the various types of door finishes and inserts that we offer. We have curated a selection of traditional and new materials so we can offer the finish options you are looking for.
Before submitting an order, please refer back to the specific Door Profile page to confirm that your preferred finish or finishes are available for that profile. We pride ourselves on curating our selection of Modern & Traditional Cabinet Doors. To achieve this we have several manufacturers producing our doors for us. When certain finishes or custom sizes aren’t available, there are usually engineering restrictions at the root cause.
Classic, quality, wood veneers make for some amazingly beautiful cabinetry. Whether you are putting custom fronts on an IKEA Sektion Kitchen system or you’re going fully custom, veneer fronts can deliver both modern and traditional looks. It really depends on the door profile you have chosen for your cabinetry. As long as you have chosen a quality hardwood veneer, you have chosen a durable door. What is undeniable is the texture and the stylistic depth that veneer finishes provide.
Some of the most common finishes for low and mid-budget cabinet doors are Laminate. A Laminate finish consists of multiple layers of high grade paper and rosin. The best quality version of this type of finish is called a high-pressure Laminate, or HPL. Laminate sheeting being made of paper means that if we can print it, we can put it on our doors. As the technology for printing improves, the options for elaborate laminate designs and colors increases.
Thermofoil technology is evolving and we make sure to make these modern options available to our Clients. From the ultra sleek Nanotech Matte to SuperMatte and SmartMatte finishes, we’ve got you covered. Antibacterial, these door finishes are some of the most sophisticated and durable for residential or commercial applications. SuperMatte and SmartMatte laminates arethe sophisticated new materials we are most excited about carrying.
Acrylic doors have a distinct look that can be achieved in several ways. The most common types of Acrylic doors are acrylic laminate or a solid acrylic door. Acrylic wrapped doors have engineered cores, which provides the same approximate feel and durability as your other types of Laminate doors. Solid Acrylic doors, while weighing slightly less than MDF core doors, are far more durable.

Painted doors are immensely popular because they are far more customizable than most other types of cabinet door finishes. Also, most people consider painted cabinet doors to be more traditional in general. And, really, you can’t argue with having any available Sherwin Williams finish for your cabinetry.
Anytime a client is contemplating painted doors, but they’re working with a limited budget, we recommend our unfinished DIY Doors. While there aren’t many unfinished door profiles available, you can put together a custom IKEA Kitchen for half the cost of most other types of doors. Of course, going the DIY route requires both confidence in your DIY skills and plenty of patience.
