When you see a finished Swedish Door kitchen or wardrobe in a client’s home, it’s easy to admire the clean lines, beautiful finishes, and custom fit. But what you don’t see is the work that happens before installation — the design detailing, careful craftsmanship, and quality checks that turn a sheet of raw material into a door that will transform an entire room.

Today, we’re inviting you behind the scenes for a day in the Swedish Door workshop, where every panel, edge, and hinge hole is crafted with precision and care.

When it comes to kitchen renovations, IKEA’s SEKTION system is a go-to for good reason: it’s affordable, modular, and well-designed. But if you're dreaming of a kitchen that feels truly custom — not cookie-cutter — it's the details that matter.

At Swedish Door, we specialize in elevating IKEA kitchens through premium custom doors, drawer fronts, and design-focused accents. Here are five high-impact custom touches that can transform your IKEA kitchen from standard to stunning.

If you’re planning a closet upgrade or searching for a smart storage solution, chances are you’ve come across the IKEA PAX wardrobe system. It’s a fan favourite for a reason — modular, budget-friendly, and surprisingly versatile.

In this post, we’re breaking down:

• What exactly IKEA provides in the PAX system
• Why so many designers and homeowners love starting with it
• And how custom doors and panels from Swedish Door can help you create a wardrobe that looks fully built-in and uniquely you
