DURA SUPREME CABINETRY CELEBRATES 31ST ANNUAL KIDS SWITCH DAY

Dura Supreme Cabinetry celebrated its 31st annual Kid’s Switch Day with a record-sized class of 30 students. Each year, 5th graders who are children or grandchildren of a Dura Supreme employee have the opportunity to participate in the event.

The day is filled with games, a tour of the Dura Supreme factory, discussions on what it means to be a valuable employee, manufacturing and cabinet-making tutorials, and more. The day wraps up with a hands-on activity where all the children get to build their own cabinets to remember their day at Dura Supreme.

Employees and their families share the memories of this day for many years. "My kids are in their 30's and they still have the sweet little cabinet they built a 'few' years ago," shared Maria Dupont, professional Expediter for Dura Supreme Cabinetry. Another employee from the Dura Supreme Marketing Team, Mary Beth Decker said, "It's a very cool thing for the kids to be able to come and see first-hand what their parents and grandparents do every day at work."

SHOWPLACE UNVEILS NEW DOOR STYLES: INTRODUCING ASPEN AND BREE

Showplace Cabinetry, a leading name in premium semi-custom cabinetry, is thrilled to announce the launch of two stunning new door styles: Aspen and Bree. These additions to the Showplace Cabinetry collection promise to redefine interior design possibilities and provide homeowners with even more choices for their dream spaces.

Aspen Door Style: Modern Elegance Redefined

The Aspen door style embodies contemporary elegance with its modern design and sleek ½-inch stiles and rails with mitered joints. Aspen showcases clean lines, a crisp profile, and a versatile appeal that suits a wide range of interior styles. Whether your vision is traditional, transitional, or contemporary, Aspen seamlessly blends into any design scheme. Its simplicity exudes sophistication, making it the perfect choice for those seeking an understated yet refined aesthetic.

Bree Door Style: Sleek with a Hint of Detail Mastery

Bree, which has that same sleek look as Aspen, captures the essence of design with a slight bevel on its ½-inch frame. This door style evokes a modern feeling paired with the character of the added profile detail, making it ideal for anyone looking to infuse their space with contemporary flair and transitional character.

Both door styles are available in full overlay, frameless, and inset lines with both stained and painted options.

"These new door styles, Aspen and Bree, are a testament to our dedication to providing homeowners with limitless possibilities for their cabinetry needs," said Lisa Myers, Product Development Manager at Showplace Cabinetry. "We are excited to see how designers and homeowners will incorporate these trending extra slim shaker door styles into their projects to bring their visions to life."
