I'm not in Melbourne and I dont know of any kitchen companies down there but I would call around to your local kitchen companies as many of them have small showrooms, and see if they have a 2 pack example.

I'm not sure if it's the quality and feel that you want to experience in real life or if you are looking for design inspiration? 2 pack is simply spray painted doors so you can pick any colour you choose (from any of the paint manufacturers, try Haymes for Australian owned and manufactured) and you can choose any door profile, if you want just a flat faced door or doors with routed borders or a beaded look - all can be finished in 2 pack. For door profiles have a look at the polytec website - ill link it below, even though polytec is mainly melamines and vinyl they still provide the MDF doors and have loads of door profile designs.

I hope this helps

Painted cabinet doors are generally at the top of the price point, with polyurethane in either gloss, satin or Matt finishes being rather expensive, and hand painted doors even more so. Laminate on the other end of the scale are cheaper, but also only have the option of a flat door. If a profile is what you what, as most if not all painted doors are profiled, ( have a door shape), but the durability of laminate is wanted, then a vinyl door can provide both. Depending on your door provider, try to stick with Australian manufactured vinyl doors to ensure they meet our regulations, such as albedor or tesrol doors, and they will give you best of both worlds. Also, being that they are cheaper than painted timber doors, modern kitchen construction means replacing doors are as easy as clipping off hinges, and ordering new ones!

Hello bellenell69, Really like the look of those top cabinets in your first image.. and the colour!.. Not the tiles so much.. Bert and May do some fabulous tiles that would work, but you have chosen metal splash back.... If the cabinets are all hanging in a row together it won't look like a patchwork as they will all be the same colour.. I like that you tried it with cardboard boxes! Very ingenious! Consider the same idea for bottom cabinets without handles... At ikea there are hinges for a touch open mechanism.. It does make for a very stylish streamline option.. A chrome style fridge would be nice with the oven.. : ) )

I so agree with Alphen Construction - on first glance, it is definitely the handles that are drawing the eye to changes in height. I would definitely try Alphen Constructions' suggestion re 'blocking out the handles with tape' to see how you like the effect. Take a photo when you do it, you can then compare. I think I would remove the handle from the cupboard over the fridge and the cupboard over the stove. I wonder if a steel extractor fan that would take that cupboard to the same level as the other cupboards might be an effective trick, it would also tie in the steel of the fridge, oven and appliances. Under cabinet lighting is needed in my opinion. I do hope you will be able to enjoy your kitchen because it is lovely. I wish you all the best.

Hi again. Finally took the plunge and had the kitchen resprayed. So much lighter and a great job by the professionals. Hard to remember the mustard kitchen now, except the photos remind me.
