Our doors fit perfectly on the new Sektion and old Akurum (pre-2015) IKEA kitchen systems. We also make doors for IKEA PAX as well as non-IKEA cabinets.

Our wood doors are made with real wood veneers with solid wood rails and stiles
and a durable clear coat finish.
Our laminate doors come in a variety of finishes, such as wood grain and solid
colours (including Supermatte), and are known for their durability, scratch

and have great aesthetic appeal.
