Door bead

The doors appear to be inset with flat panels, but what is the type of bead around the center panels? Thanks.

Thanks for your interest! That bead detail is a small half-round type bead detail that projects out a small amount from the frame. Let me know if you have further questions

Thanks...I saved this pic as I couldn't figure out what I liked so much about these cabinets until recently. It seems that this "small" detail makes a world of difference!

Thanks for your reply. I had planned on replacing them all but wanted to check opinions first. I had also seen people adding beading to them to make them panelled as our kitchen door was just hollow like these existing ones with beading on top! It is the fitting cost that adds to it and then the hours spent painting

Now I can see the whole thing I think its the first video. I think where the curve goes flat in to the frame is the line of the connection of the bead to the frame. can you try tapping a chisel or old screwdriver in to that joint, mid point is the easiest place to try.

Hi! A belated thank you to everyone who helped me finally make a decision! I went with a 3 pane sliding door (on a 3.7m opening) allowing me to open over half the width. I figured that with bifolds you would still have the frames stacked to one side which takes up a chunk of the opening as well. I chose the XP Glide from Express Bi-folds. Have found them professional and easy to deal with, we are just awaiting delivery now! The only bug I had is that their choice of handles were pretty basic, either a chunky (in my view an eye sore!) steel bar or a regular lever handle. They only come in black, grey or white! I was initially going with a very sleek 2 pane sliding door from Ultraline that had an integrated handle within the frame but the cost was too high for me to change it to a 3 pane. If I had the budget though I would have gone with them instead. Express Bi-folds do a slimmer framed option than XP Glide, I think it is called XP Panoramic. The 3 pane was more than Ultraline I think though. The consultant at Express-Bi-folds also advised against slimmer framed bonded glass options as if for any reason you damage the glass you have to replace the whole frame as well which is a major structural headache. Most slim framed options use this method though (as opposed to beaded - correct me if I am wrong!) so I would have chosen to ignore his advice if my budget allowed :-)

A bonded system means that you can go for a more minimal frame design while still having a secure door, it not only has a lovely modern aesthetic, it also offers a more secure glass fixing technique. The glass unit is chemically adhered to the outer frame, meaning that it simply cannot be removed. Hope this helps! Best of luck!

I agree with you. These cabinets are really simple, but not stark because of that small detail, which provides a lot.

I repeatedly look at and admire this charming kitchen! I am looking forward to redesigning my own small kitchen soon. Wish I could seek your services, but I live in Canada. Would you kindly provide details of the materials and finishes used in the making of this kitchen. Sincerely appreciate it.
