The style selection of kitchen cabinets mainly starts with the door panels. The kitchen cabinet door panels represent the appearance of the kitchen cabinets. Generally speaking, the kitchen cabinet door panels are divided into two types: glossy and matte. The difference between these two door panels is mainly in the visual texture presented. Of course, there are also several differences in their functions.
1. Cleanliness
Glossy door panels: 70% of people choose glossy surfaces for kitchen cabinets doors when they are renovating because they are easy to clean. The surface of glossy door panels is very smooth, and there is a lot of kitchen fumes. Using glossy cabinet doors makes daily cleaning simple and easy. But it is also very squeamish. We cannot use hard objects such as cleaning balls for cleaning. Usually, we need to pay special attention not to be touched by hard objects. The bright surface has no resistance to sharp objects. Once it is touched, it is easy to get scratches.
Matte kitchen cabinets door: Dark matte door will not look particularly dirty, choosing a light-colored door is more troublesome in daily cleaning, the matte surface texture is a bit deep, and it is not dirty at all at first glance. However, when cleaning it, I found that there are oil stains hidden in the gaps, which is more difficult to clean.
2. Gloss
Glossy kitchen cabinet door panels: the gloss is better, the craftsmanship is well done, the surface is smooth to the touch, and visually gives people a sense of vitality. There are also many colors of glossy door panels, but it takes a long time to choose a large area of glossy surface for custom kitchen cabinets It is easy to get visual fatigue, especially if there are elderly people at home, it is not recommended to choose bright cabinet doors, or you can reduce the bright surface area.
Matte kitchen cabinet door: Although the matte door is not as glossy as the glossy door, the matte door has a variety of colors, high appearance and many shapes. If you are afraid of poor lighting in your home, you can choose matte door panels in the light-colored series.
3. Aesthetics
Glossy kitchen cabinet door: The glossy door looks smooth and full, bright in color, and generally seems to be seamless as a whole, giving people the feeling of vitality and vitality. But as I mentioned before, the bright material is easy to be visually fatigued after looking at it for a long time. If the kitchen is exposed to sunlight, the reflection on the kitchen cabinets door panel is very dazzling.
Matte kitchen cabinet door: Matte door looks strong in texture and wear-resistant, so it is easier to take care of.
