4. Slab Kitchen Cabinet Doors
Slab style kitchen doors are flat with no added lines or extravagant details. This makes slab kitchen cabinets a great choice if you are looking to modernize your kitchen space or create more simplified lines. Because they have such minimal detail and straight lines, a modern pull for hardware does just the trick in order to stick to the theme of clean lines.
With slab kitchen cabinet doors, there are many more options for the rest of the design of the kitchen space. Eccentric backsplashes, decor, and hardware work amazingly well alongside these simplistic cabinet doors.

5. Cathedral Kitchen Cabinet Doors
If you are looking to add artistic flair to your kitchen, cathedral style kitchen cabinet doors might be a good choice for you. With their arched panel details, this will add an element to your kitchen space that had been previously missing.
With this arch detail originating back to medieval times, this look will elevate the elegance of the whole space. Nearly all hardware works well with this style of cabinetry as well, making it a perfect choice for either traditional or modern kitchen spaces. Simplistic pulls work amazing for more of a modern appearance, while a knob or more ornate pull works for a traditional kitchen look.
6. Arch Panel Kitchen Cabinet Doors
Arch panel kitchen cabinet doors are a great option for any style of kitchen. With their deep grooves that form an arch at the top, they add an extra stylistic element to your kitchen space. Arch panel cabinet doors allow you to put some more detail into the space without taking away from other elements in the kitchen, such as the backsplash or countertops.

7. Beadboard Kitchen Cabinet Doors
Beadboard kitchen cabinet doors present the opportunity to give more of a rustic feel to the kitchen space. Not only that, but they also add texture and more design that the space was missing beforehand. These types of cabinet doors don’t have to be used throughout the entire kitchen and can instead be used more as a focal point. This look works amazingly alongside shaker cabinets, which will only continue the look of the straight and dramatic lines.
8. Mullion Kitchen Cabinet Doors
Adding mullion kitchen cabinet doors to any kitchen space will immediately enhance the style and look. Coming in all shapes, sizes, and designs, there is sure to be a mullion cabinet door that will add even more design to your kitchen. These types of cabinet doors are mostly used in pairs of two and can be used to display items inside. These items can be decorative, champagne flutes, decorative glassware, or anything you wish to put on display in the kitchen space.

Open frame kitchen cabinet doors look amazing alongside any style of cabinetry, whether traditional or modern, with any style of hardware. Overall, glass pane cabinet doors are a great addition to any kitchen design!

10. Louvered Kitchen Cabinet Doors
Louvered kitchen cabinet doors have small slats throughout the door that allow for increased ventilation to the inside of the cabinet. This type of cabinet door is regularly used for windows or closets, yet they present the opportunity to add more style to a space like a kitchen. Not only do they provide ventilation, but they also provide an added design that can serve as a focal point for the kitchen.
