Hello,

the door have been painted with kitchen & bathroom paint. Obviously they have been prepared before: sanded and coated, but that was an easy thing to do.

Hope that helped.

Hi Humaira, You could change the doors for a white mat door with a minimalist handle, if you could get all the handles to go the same direction ie horizontal it will keep to the sleek modern look. It will give the kitchen a modern look. The blue tiles will be the perfect pop of colour the kitchen needs to tie it all together. The wooden floor which is existing will add some warmth to the room. Also the free standing appliances won't stand out as much. Hope this helps! LWK Kitchens

POLL: How often do you change your cutting board?
Q
Comments (40)
I never, ever change mine. I use a butcher block and a huge thick wooden cutting board, only taking care to keep my fruits from suddenly tasting like onions or garlic. Studies have shown that a wooden cutting board is naturally resistant to bacteria, so I scrape and then wash mine off with soap and water after use. All this absurd paranoia about cleanliness is the product of marketing, not science, and the supposedly more sterile plastic ones are actually much better petri dishes for bacterial growth, which is why they must be cleaned and disposed of regularly. Fine if you want to keep plastic cutting board manufacturers in China working, but not at all safer or cleaner.

Hello Jennifer, Sounds like a lovely idea! For wood stain, it may be that you can just sand the doors to remove the stain. If it was painted I would have suggested a heat gun, scraper tool and sanding or Nitromors scraper tool and then wire wool, water and sanding.... Hopefully the wood stain might be a lot easier to manage! Especially if you have animals or nippers around... For the locks... It could be straightforward If you can align the rim lock and door jam so it's in line with the holes in the door.. I'm no chippy here! So maybe you might want to hire one to do it for you, it's a small job really but one you want done right.. I have a collection of old doors someone didn't want with loads of holes all over the place from previous owners....(I made them into a screen).. but I could see all the botch jobs that had taken place over many years...... : )) The box lock as they are known is a surface mount whereas other styles aren't so you may have to do a bit of filling depending on what is already in situ.. There are lots of helpful tutorials on youtube one here you might want to have a look at too..So a few ideas.. : )) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlCnfI64zgs
