Why Compare
Cabinet Door Suppliers?
There are dozens of companies selling replacement cabinet doors online, but they aren't all built the same, priced the same, or delivered on the same timeline.
At CabDoor Direct, we manufacture the doors we sell. For more than 40 years we've supplied professional cabinet shops with high-quality cabinet doors, and now we're bringing that same factory-direct value to homeowners.
Rather than asking you to simply take our word for it, we've compared CabDoor Direct against several leading online suppliers using publicly available pricing, published lead times, and product information.
Our goal is simple: give you the information you need to choose the best value for your project.
Cabdoor Direct
How We Compared
To keep this comparison as fair as possible:
We selected a common painted Shaker cabinet door size.
Pricing reflects publicly available online pricing at the time of comparison.
Lead times and product information come from each company's published website.
Because companies regularly update pricing and policies, these comparisons may change over time.

CUSTOM DOORS
Competitor Comparison – Custom Doors and Fronts
We compared the door and drawer front costs for the 3 sample kitchens from our Kitchen Cost Estimator — the Galley Style, L Shape with Island, and U Shaped kitchen. We used pre-primed Shaker style doors in our estimator. If you haven't used the Estimator we encourage you to do so. Here are the results.

Why Price Matters
Kitchen remodels are expensive. Cabinet doors are one of the easiest places to accidentally overpay because similar-looking products can vary dramatically in price.
Our philosophy is simple:
Offer competitive everyday pricing—not inflated list prices followed by constant "sales."
Because we manufacture our own products, we know exactly what it costs to build a quality cabinet door, and we price accordingly.

CabDoor wants you to have a great experience with your project by offering the shortest lead time, the largest standard paint color selection, and offering to drill your Knob and Pull holes. Our Kitchen Price Estimator used pre-primed doors; if you wanted to purchase painted doors the door costs would increase $1,200 to $1,800. CabDoor painting your doors should lower your painting contractor cost and provide a factory durable finish.
CabDoor Direct consistently will deliver homeowners the best overall value and product offering, hands down. Let's Go Shopping!
Why Lead Time Matters
Ordering cabinet doors is often one of the final steps before putting your kitchen back together.
Every additional week waiting for doors is another week living without a finished kitchen.
Because we build our doors in-house, we focus on delivering accurate, dependable lead times so your project keeps moving.

Competitor Comparison – Ikea Door Fronts
We have compared the door and drawer front costs for the 3 sample kitchens from our Kitchen Cost Estimator, the Galley Style, L Shape with Island, and U Shaped kitchen. We used Painted Shaker style doors in our estimator. If you haven't used the Estimator we encourage you to do so. Here are the results.
*Also, if you are looking on Custom Cabinet Door sites, remember Ikea has unique hole patterns for their drawer fronts and hinge locations, so confirm that the online store will drill those holes correctly for you. Nobody likes unwanted surprises.
