What Are The Advantages of Shaker Kitchens?
Picking a new kitchen is exciting – that is, until the practicalities of creating your dream kitchen start to set in. There are so many factors to consider – what material to go for? Colour schemes? Layouts? But don’t panic. Kitchen Warehouse are here to help.
Here we take a look at the advantages of shaker kitchens to make at least one decision a little easier.
What is a shaker kitchen?
Believe it or not, shaker kitchens actually have religious origins. The United Society of Believers in Christ’s Second Appearing, commonly known as ‘shakers’, being who you need to thank for the shaker kitchen unit designs we have today. Their firmly held ideas inspired the design of their own simplistic but effective furniture that is now commonly used around the world in the form of kitchen units and replacement kitchen doors. This kitchen design has a paneled look that can complement both contemporary and traditional style kitchens, with a minimalist design presenting a timeless feel whilst still maintaining functionality.
What are the advantages of shaker kitchens?
Durability
Shaker kitchen cabinets and doors are built to last. Made from an MDF base coupled with a 5 piece PVC wrap, shaker kitchens are naturally designed to withstand moisture build up as well as the usual spills and wear and tear that occurs in the kitchen. Shaker furniture is one of the strongest out there – with the added bonus of looking great!
Modern feel
Even though Shaker furniture has its root in the 18th and 19th centuries, they actually provide a contemporary feel. Their minimalist style can bring a tired, old kitchen bang up to date.
Affordability
Installing shaker kitchen doors and units is one of the many things that you can do to overhaul your kitchen on a small budget.
One of the reasons why our shaker range is so popular is because you will not have to spend as much money on the shaker designs as you would on many other materials.
