STYLE SELECTION GUIDE

STYLE SELECTION GUIDE

Our passion for woodworking began in 1908, and in many ways, we do business the way you d expect a hundred-year-old company would: with integrity, craftsmanship and dedication to service. But having a century of experience doesn t mean living in the past. We keep a close watch on the evolution of kitchen design, providing contemporary space and design solutions as well as adding new doors, finishes and accessories to our collection of timeless styles every year. This catalog features our full line of door styles, wood species, finishes and hardware options. It was designed both to inform and inspire you. And whether your perfect kitchen is an Old World masterpiece in ornate cherry, a Casual haven in hand-distressed hickory, or a Contemporary cook s paradise in sleek maple, you can rest assured that each and every piece will be crafted with the wisdom and experience of a hundred years behind it.

UNDERSTANDING WOOD SPECIES The beauty of wood lies in its natural imperfections and subtle variations. Each species has its own unique characteristics, and your choice of woods can have a dramatic effect on the overall mood of your kitchen. With a century of woodworking experience behind us, we hand-select each piece of lumber used in our doors and drawer fronts to maximize the inherent beauty in each species and craft a kitchen of unsurpassed quality. CHERRY Cherry With its fine grain and rich red undertones, cherry is the essence of elegance. Its association with fine furniture makes it a classic choice for Traditional and Old World looks, but its smooth surface also enhances Contemporary kitchens. Cherry s most unique and desirable characteristic is the tendency to darken and mellow with age, looking richer and more luxurious with each passing year. Maple Naturally lustrous with a fine, straight grain that looks equally beautiful stained, glazed or painted, maple is extremely versatile and works in any décor. It is generally creamy white, varying from bright white to reddish brown. Maple ages to a light amber color and may contain small mineral streaks that are natural characteristics of the wood.

HICKORY OAK Hickory Hickory offers the most dramatic contrasts of all our woods. A single cabinet door can range in color from creamy white to deep brown and feature any number of distinctive specks, knots and streaks. This natural unpredictability gives hickory its charm and makes it ideal for rustic casual looks. Oak The rugged look of oak is unmistakable. Its bold grain varies from close-set lines to wide, open arches. Oak s honest, straightforward appearance makes it especially suited to Casual and Traditional kitchens, while its incredible strength and durability ensure lasting beauty and quality. Quartersawn Oak The defining wood species of the Arts & Crafts and Mission movements, Quartersawn Oak has come to be identified with fine period furniture pieces. Quartersawn Oak is quartered and then cut at a 60 to 90-degree angle to the growth rings of the tree. This process exposes distinctive golden rays that randomly fleck across the vertical, close-knit grain pattern. QUARTERSAWN OAK Thermofoil (not shown) Thermofoil is also available as a low-maintenance alternative to hardwood. Thermofoil combines the look of painted cabinetry with the durability of thermally sealed vinyl on wood fiberboard. 5

FINDING THE FACE OF YOUR NEW KITCHEN This is where the fun begins discovering which Yorktowne door style embodies your vision of the perfect kitchen. Whether the door style you fall in love with is a classically beautiful profile or a sleek contemporary design, it will be crafted with the same attention to quality and detail that has been our passion for the last 100 years. The following pages feature an array of quality crafted door styles meticulously detailed in a variety of wood species and finishes. Door styles are grouped into five categories of distinctive profile variations: Raised, Flat, Beaded, Slab and Exclusive. These profile variations are based on the style of the center panel and will help narrow down your choices through the selection process. Each panel style has distinctive differences, just as each individual has their own unique taste and style. 6

SHAPING YOUR STYLE In addition to the five categories of door styles, raised panel doors have a selection of center panel shapes to choose from. While versatile by design, some shapes are better suited for certain styles by adding more visual appeal to the overall look of your space. There are three main types available: square, arched and cathedral. SQUARE A square shape provides clean and simple lines for both base and wall cabinets. ARCH An arch shape on wall and tall cabinets can emulate an architectural detail or emphasize high ceilings. CATHEDRAL A cathedral arch portrays a more casual feel and adds interest to wall and tall cabinets. Avondale Square maple Cider Cambridge Arch maple Cider Asbury Cathedral maple Eggshell 7
