Doors don't hold up

We've had our cabinet doors for about 4.5 years, and I am extremely disappointed in them. We purchased finished doors, so it's not like we made a mistake in finishing them. We got shaker style doors, and right above the bottom piece of trim on almost every door, the center part is swollen as if water had pooled there. To clean them, I wipe them with a wet cloth, but even if I put liquid directly onto them, they are verticle, so how would it have a chance to pool there long enough to cause the wood to swell? Not to mention, these are intended for a kitchen, which frequently involves moisture. Can't believe how much money I spent on these only for them to be ruined in less than 5 years.

Hi Nick,
Thank you for letting us know about the swelling issues you are having with your painted doors.
We make our doors with a floating center panel to allow for natural expansion and contraction. The extent to which painted doors will be affected is dependent a lot on your environment.
It is not uncommon for the humidity in a home to be around 50%, and if your door was made in a much drier environment, then it is going to absorb a lot of that moisture when you install it.
Wood can expand and contract as it is exposed to moisture and changes in climate. However, if a door is swollen a great deal due to heat or moisture exposure, it is unlikely that it will revert to its original shape.

We offer a 5-year warranty.
Please send an email to customerservice@cabinetdoorsdepot.com
Please include a picture of each door's defect and the size of each door so we can make new ones for you.
