After

The glass doors are gone. Everything around them is the same door, sprayed.

  • Refinished, doors in the shop and frames in the home
  • Nine glass doors replaced with solid MDF
  • Existing hinges and hole positions used
  1. The original dark walnut kitchen with glass-fronted upper cabinets either side of the window, everything inside them on display

    01

    Glass fronts either side of the window, and everything behind them on permanent display. It is a feature until it is a chore. Nine of these openings were never going to look right white with the contents still showing through, so nine doors were made instead.

  2. A white sample door with the handle specification written across it in red marker — 160 millimetre centres, black — beside a brass handle laid on the counter for comparison

    02

    The handle written on the door in marker. One hundred and sixty millimetre centres, black, with the old brass one laid beside it to argue against. The spec lives on the thing it describes until the order goes in, which is harder to lose than a note on a phone.

  3. The finished kitchen with solid white doors in the openings that previously held glass, the cathedral arch profile matched across old doors and new

    03

    The finished run, and the test of it is that you cannot pick the new doors out. Nine were made from scratch and the rest were stripped and sprayed, and the arch had to be the same arch across both or the whole thing reads as a patch.
