The Vanguard door puts two details on one face, an accent molding running inside the frame and a center panel that steps back rather than forward. The CNC Cabinetry Dove VG22 Vanguard carries that in a soft gray on a shaker style birch door. HM Cabinetry keeps the Dove VG22 Vanguard door at the East Brunswick showroom, because two shallow details are hard to judge from a photograph.

An accent molding and a reversed raised panel do two different jobs on the same door. The molding gives a crisp line close to the frame, and the recessed panel gives a broader shadow further in, so the CNC Cabinetry Dove VG22 Vanguard holds its shape under bright ceiling lighting and under low evening light alike. The door is birch in a shaker profile with a full overlay.

A dove gray with shape on the door is a different proposition from a dove gray on a slab. The molding and the recessed panel give the color two places to run darker, which stops a mid gray reading as one flat wall across a long kitchen. HM Cabinetry uses CNC Cabinetry Dove VG22 Vanguard in Middlesex and Monmouth county kitchens where the run is long enough that a plain door would flatten out under ceiling lighting.
Three finishes on one profile is the part worth planning around. The same Dove VG22 Vanguard door shape runs in the other two finishes in the line, so a two tone kitchen keeps one door design throughout and changes only the color, which is what stops a two tone run looking like two separate kitchens pushed together. HM Cabinetry draws both arrangements in 3D before the order goes in, and dove on the base cabinets and the island with a lighter finish above is the split that comes up most often around here.
Shallow details need the doors hanging straight to look right, because an accent molding that steps out of line between two doors is more obvious than a plain edge would be. HM Cabinetry sets the hinges after the first heating season, handles touch up on the Dove VG22 Vanguard finish, and orders replacement doors from the same run.
