Custom Maple
The Top Five Woods For Custom Cabinets
With a new year comes a new start around your Denver home, and you might have decided that the kitchen needs some attention. Old, worn-out or out-of-style cabinets make the kitchen look drab, but that can be changed with a new set of kitchen cabinets in Denver. The type of wood used will have a significant impact on the look of your kitchen, and so it pays to learn about the top five most popular woods used by Denver custom cabinet makers. They include birch, alder, pine, cherry and maple.
Birch
Birch wood naturally offers a light sheen, and comes in colors ranging from pale yellow to brown with red tones. Birch wood often has knots and ripples, streaks and lines that occur in the wood, making it highly sought after by Denver custom cabinet makers for the distinctive decorative look it gives to kitchen and bathroom cabinetry.
Alder
Those seeking a country or rustic feel for a kitchen remodel will enjoy the look of alder wood cabinets. A mid-priced wood with a fine grain that takes stain readily, many choose alder wood as a less expensive option than cherry wood, but offering a very similar and beautiful look.
Pine
Pine is a popular softwood often used in the construction of kitchen cabinets in Denver. It can be used with toners, stains and pigments to achieve a range of colors, so that there are many options for customizing your pine cabinets.
Cherry
Cherry wood is a great choice for when you want a high-end look in your new kitchen. Colors of cherry wood range from reds to browns, and comes with highly visible, straight graining. Cherry offers an excellent choice for the homeowner who wants to create a warm, inviting feel to the look of the kitchen.
Maple
Natural maple wood ranges in color from soft yellow to deep brown shades. Denver custom cabinet makers like to use maple wood when a distinctive graining pattern is sought for the cabinetry. This hardwood is also widely used by luthiers for crafting guitars and other wooden musical instruments. Because it is a versatile wood that offers a wide range of looks, maple wood is appropriate for use in cabinetry in a variety of interior design styles ranging from traditional to more modern.
For more information on these woods and how they can be used to best effect in your kitchen cabinets in Denver, contact a Denver cabinet maker today.
