Founded in 2011, Semihandmade specializes in creating beautiful cabinet doors for IKEA kitchen and bathroom furniture. The two main IKEA kitchen models they carry are Sektion and Akurum, which have been so successful that the brand now offers the cabinets themselves as well.

With so much to choose from, you'll be able to find IKEA cabinet door replacements to fit any kitchen scheme. Choose Shaker style for a traditional, timeless kitchen design or Slab for a sleek, modern kitchen scheme. And if you're looking for a way to upgrade your IKEA bathroom, we also have doors to fit IKEA's Godmorgon units.

This kitchen is a beautiful example of how beige fluted doors from Frontteriors can instantly upgrade an IKEA kitchen. Combined with white countertops and walls painted in warm, neutral tones, the space feels calm, inviting and totally bespoke.
4. Reform

Though Reform doesn't market itself as a brand that updates IKEA kitchen cabinets, its door designs fit the bill perfectly: they have a more contemporary, almost minimalist feel, but still have a unique edge. Their latest collection, COLUMN by Inga Sempé, reinterprets panel cabinets with soft, curvaceous details.
The Copenhagen-based brand has three classic collections and 11 kitchen collections created in collaboration with architects and designers to help you create a kitchen that experts approve of. For a truly Copenhagen-inspired space, try the SURFACE collection by Norm Architects, which exudes an authentic feel.
The range of colours offered by Reform makes it your go-to, whatever your kitchen style: from natural wood finishes to neutral hues, earthy tones and even vibrant mismatched doors (check out MATCH by Muller Van Serveren if that sounds like you), there's something to suit every interior design style.
5. Pre-care

Plykea is sold in the US and UK and stocks a range of furniture from the Swedish brand, including fronts and cabinet doors for IKEA's Metod kitchens, as well as wardrobes and pantries.
The buying process here is not as easy as with other brands. You have to design your IKEA kitchen, share it with the team, and get a free quote. It might take a little longer than just ordering some cabinet doors, but you can rest assured that you'll get the right design and size.
All doors and fronts are wood and available in a wide range of colors, so if you're not sure what style or color you prefer, browse our gallery page or come visit our showroom in San Francisco.
Updating your IKEA kitchen cabinets has never been easier, and with products in a variety of colors, styles and price ranges, these stores have something to suit every taste and space.
Be sure to carefully measure your existing cabinets before purchasing – you don't want to end up with a pile of ill-fitting cabinet doors or drawer fronts.
