Hardwoods provide a tremendous selection of grain patterns, color variations, and textures, ranging from the bold statements of American red oak, hickory and character maple to the more subdued patterns of cherry and maple. Because no two trees are exactly alike, cabinets crafted from hardwood will have subtle variations in color and grain. These variations serve to enhance the beauty of each piece of Wellborn cabinetry crafted with these hardwoods. Which is why Wellborn Cabinet Inc., is one of the few remaining manufacturers who continues to use solid wood in our Premier Series raised panel doors and drawer fronts. We are also proud to offer an All Plywood Construction (APC) option on all of our Series.


In recent years, Wellborn has expanded our Door Style / Cabinet Species selections to include Thermofoil, MDF and Laminate. Each of these “Species” is durable, easy to clean and beautiful. These doors are available in a variety of design styles, ranging from the sleek, contemporary look of our Laminate door styles to our classic MDF door styles, each dynamic in its own way.
