What is a shaker door?
A shaker cabinet door style features raised framing with lower center panel. Typically, the inside and outside profile is a clean cut, 90-degree angle. There is a beveled shaker, which features a bevel on the inside profile of the cabinet door. Some businesses use shaker style and recessed style interchangeably. However, some experts draw a clear line between the two styles.
The center panel of a recessed door is set farther into the frame than a shaker door. A traditional recessed door style has more of a bevel along the inner profile, which gives it a distinct look from the shaker door. There is also a reversed recessed style, which simply means the bevel is on the inside of the door.
3 Styling Tips for Black Cabinets
Black is a neutral color that is easily paired with any palette. However, it can throw off the vibe of a room unless styled properly. Here are 3 tips to help you out:

Black is a color that can make spaces feel smaller. To avoid that, consider pairing with natural accents. Think of wood, stone, and fabric. Check out the photo on your right for reference.
