Kitchen Island Facades

Upgrading your Cabinet Refacing Project with an Island Facade

When refacing a kitchen island, you can simply update it to match the rest of your newly refaced cabinetry or take the transformation further with decorative panels, trim, posts, and other custom details. An island facade can give your existing island a complete makeover without requiring you to tear it out and start over.

What is a kitchen island facade?

A kitchen island facade is a decorative treatment added to the exposed sides or back of an existing island to give it a more finished, custom look. During cabinet refacing, panels, trim, posts, and other design details can be added to transform a plain island without having to completely rebuilt it.

Before & After: Transforming an Existing Island

Updating an existing kitchen island can make a dramatic difference in the overall look of the room. See how refacing and custom facade details transform these islands while keeping the existing structure in place.

Decorative Panels

Adding decorative panels to a kitchen island is a simple way to give the sides and back a more custom, finished appearance. From clean Shaker-style panels to more detailed designs, decorative kitchen island panels can be tailored to complement the style of your newly refaced cabinets.

Decorative Posts & Furniture-style Details

Add character and dimension to your existing island with decorative posts, legs, corbels, and other furniture-style details. Whether simple and streamlined or more elaborate, these finishing touches can turn a basic island into a beautiful focal point.

Contrasting Island Finishes

Your kitchen island doesn’t have to match the rest of your cabinetry. Choosing a contrasting paint color, stain, or wood finish can make the island stand out as a focal point while still complementing the overall design of your kitchen.

Need more than an island makeover?

If your existing island doesn’t provide the size, storage, seating, or layout you need, a facade may not be enough. Better Than New can also design and build a completely new custom kitchen island tailored to your space and designed to complement your refaced cabinets. Explore Custom Kitchen Islands →
