Shaker V-groove kitchen tall & larder doors

Kitchen tall & larder doors in our shaker v-groove profile, machined one-piece from moisture-resistant MDF to your exact size. Larder and tall-unit doors are large and unforgiving — any bow or joint movement shows immediately on a full-height face. Machining them one-piece from high-density MR MDF keeps them flat and seamless where a framed door would risk telegraphing its joints.

The shaker V-groove takes our classic recessed-panel shaker and adds a fine V-groove at each point where the rails meet the stiles — the detail that reads as a traditional five-piece, jointed door. Because ours is machined from a single sheet rather than framed from five pieces, you get that jointed look with none of the mitres that crack or shadow through your paint.

Frequently asked questions

What is the V-groove for?

It's a 1.5mm V machined along each line where a rail would meet a stile on a traditional five-piece door. It gives you the jointed, hand-made look — the shadow line you'd get from a real frame joint — without an actual joint that can open.

Is the groove cut all the way through the face?

No. It's a shallow 45° V cut into the surface of the same one-piece board, so there's nothing to fill, no end grain exposed at the corners and nothing that moves independently. It primes and sprays like the rest of the face.

Can I have V-grooves on a door with a midrail?

Yes — the grooves follow whatever frame layout you set, so a two- or three-panel door gets a groove at each rail line as well as the stiles.

Are these made to measure?

Yes. Every door is CNC-machined one-piece from moisture-resistant MDF to your exact width and height — enter the size in the configurator and the price updates as you type.

How are they made?

From a single sheet of ultra-high-density MR MDF, so there are no mitred corner joints to open or shadow through your paint.
