Shaker cabinet doors are a popular choice for kitchens and bathrooms due to their simple, clean lines and versatility. They can be painted or stained to match any dcor, and they are relatively easy to make. However, a few key steps are involved in making shaker cabinet doors correctly.
First, you will need to create a frame for the door. The frame should be made from 1×4 or 1×6 pine boards, and it should be the same size as the opening in your cabinet. Once the frame is assembled, you will need to attach the stiles and rails. The stiles are the vertical pieces of wood that run along the sides of the door, and the rails are the horizontal pieces of wood that run across the top and bottom of the door. The stiles and rails should be made from 1×2 or 1×3 pine boards, and they should be mitered at the corners so that they fit together snugly.
