custom doors for ikea

a while back I asked this question & ended trying to do all custom at Scherrs, in N. Dak., where other brownstoners had had great experience. They are great — but  custom w/installation & shipping is costing out at more than custom. Might still use them for doors only, but going back & forth on the species/stain color is a huge hassle — and costly. I’d love to find someone right here in Bklyn to work with. Does anyone know an excellent, reasonable cabinetmaker who can build simple, slab doors for ikea cabs, plus a small amount of custom stuff? Please don’t recommend using the Ikea doors. I just don’t like any of them.  thanks, Judith

interesting to hear… don’t know if they will have the info, but you might try asking this company who does ikea installs, we just got a quote from them this spring . **http://traemand.com/Public/index.asp**

SHM, you’re shilling your own company but you don’t know the costs? OP doesn’t want to pay shipping from ND, why would she pay shipping from CA?
