Production Lead time
3 weeks
We understand the importance of keeping things simple and organized during your remodel. It’s also important to manage expectations. With that in mind, please be aware production lead-times on Semihandmade doors vary based on when your final plans are approved.
During checkout, you will have the opportunity to select what level of review you would like for your design plans.
If you choose to have “No Plan Check”, then the lead-time begins right away and lasts between three weeks.
If you select "Check My Plans", then it will be three weeks from the time the final plans are approved and any balance is paid. Please note that this is the production time only and does not include the shipping time for your order.
DIY - The Power of Choice
We’re proud to offer more than twelve colors in our Supermatte line to choose from. For those wanting even more options, we suggest our paint-them-yourself DIY collection.
DIY Slab: Clean and simple. All parts feature Maple-banded edges around an MDF core that provides an excellent painting surface.
Panels/Trim/Toe-kick/Light-rail
Unlike some Ikea parts which are 5/8" thick, all Semihandmade parts are 3/4" thick (please note the additional thickness if replacing thinner Akurum panels).
Semihandmade base and tall panels are meant to run to the floor and slightly past the door/drawer fronts for a more built-in look. Wall panels also sit past the door, and can either line up with the bottom of the cabinet or run slightly below it to accommodate optional light-rail (see the downloadable Semihandmade Instructional Manual for details).
For the most professional installation, the cutting of some Semihandmade parts on-site may be required. Note: all panels, trim, light-rail and toe-kick cut easily to fit, and replacement edge-banding is available for selects materials.
