Things to know about your door finish

As far as contemporary kitchen designs are concerned a gloss white kitchen happens to be right there at the top. These kitchens look clean and stunning as well. However, for that to happen you need to plan and then fit them in the right way. In this context, it is important that you choose the right doors as well as worktops since they can have a major say on how your kitchen looks. This is why when you are trying to choose a kitchen door and even the retailer for that matter you should do your homework properly. There are different kinds of gloss white kitchens that you need to know about before you take any further decision in this regard.

Types of gloss white kitchens

High gloss kitchen doors can give your kitchen a really smart look, something that would be appreciated by people that visit your home as well. Normally, melamine is the commonest form of gloss white kitchen that you would find out there. It happens to be the least expensive as well. It is also known as high-pressure laminate or HPL. Second on this list would be vinyl or PVC (polyvinyl chloride). You can also choose from high gloss lacquer and acrylic.

Which one of these is the best?

Any answer to this question would depend on your budget as well as what you are expecting from the said material. This is something that is applicable for the rest of your life as well. Under normal circumstances, glossier the finish more expensive would it be. Most of the glossy kitchen doors available in the market are made from high-pressure laminate and polyvinyl chloride. Melamine is the least glossy – something that you would know by now by virtue of the fact that it is the cheapest of all.

Polyvinyl chloride

Polyvinyl chloride happens to be the most often found option in the market for these products. Its biggest benefit is that it can be wrapped around a door as well. This gives the door the sort of smooth finish that you are always looking for in your kitchen. This also means that there are no edges to the doors. In case you want a glass-like finish you should settle for lacquer or acrylic. Acrylic doors are made primarily from acrylic sheets that remain fixed on a door made from medium-density fibreboard (MDF). Acrylic is also known as Perspex.

Acrylic

With acrylic, you can indeed get the glass like finish that you have been after and it also helps that the finish looks exceptionally good. This is why the price of these doors is much more than those made using polyvinyl chloride. In fact, the finish of these doors is far better and anyone can easily make that out. However, there is a problem with these doors. You have to edge them on each of the four sides. Normally, people do not mind such finishes and a lot of them do not even notice. However, if you are looking for perfection you should go for lacquer doors. Get more information on kitchen doors
