Decions.... Kitchen doors for Ikea cabinets
Using the Ikea layout, I priced out the Semihandmade Doors and they were going to cost a little over what the cabinets would cost. Yikes!! I wasn't even going to get their high end, I went with the more economical DIY door which I would have to paint.
IKEA Grimslov $518
Semihandmade $1,500 (excluding shipping est $350-$500)
Sherr Style 400 $450
They all look about the same, and the Sherr Style 400 come primed, it's a no brainer. Just waiting for the sample so we can be sure it's the right decision.
Here are the specs.
Materials
Ikea Grimslov Fiberboard, Foil, Melamine foil
Semihandmade Solid wood frame with MDF panel
Sherr Solid wood frame with 1/4" plywood panel
Style details
Ikea Grimslov (unavailable)
Semihandmade Stile 2 1/2" Rail 2 1/2"
Sherr Stile 2 3/8", Rail 2 3/8"
Is 1/8" of an inch enough to justify $1,050 more? I can live with a little narrower Stile and Rail.
Semihandmade and Sherr also bore the holes in the back to fit the blum hinges.
I'm going with Sherr!!!
