Twenty plus years of being an IKEA Kitchen Designer and Installer means John Webb Construction & Design believes it is very important that clients have the freedom to customize their IKEA cabinets. John launched Dendra Doors to make sure clients had hundreds of quality profile and finish options for their IKEA Sektion, Akurum, Godmorgan, Besta, and Pax cabinets.

We sit down with John Webb of John Webb Construction & Design to learn how he launched Dendra Doors to provide hundreds of custom options for IKEA Kitchens.

“With all the custom stuff we build and design, and gear towards whatever the client’s wants and needs are, we started a door company called Dendra Doors. A partner and I started it back about 10 years ago. We make doors and finishes exactly any way you could possibly imagine. You know, from any kind of metal, to any kind of wood, to any kind of laminate, to the new kind of SuperMatte laminate – the sky is the limit. Anything you want we can come up with and figure out how to do.

So, the door company wraps IKEA cabinets. So, that’s a viable business now. It runs on it’s own and it seems to grow a little bit every year. We’ve got a pretty good clientele on the Dendra side.

Even so, if you were to go on our website, most any kitchen you see on there is an IKEA Kitchen, with Dendra Doors finishes on them. You might not think that they’re all IKEA, but most of them are. Or, they’re boxes that we’ve altered or changed and made into whatever we, whatever our clients wanted.

People do freak out a little bit when you start doing things to an IKEA product, that they’re not warrantied. You know a melamine box is a melamine box. You know, as long as you seal it and cover your cuts, when you do things right, you should never have any problem with them. We haven’t had any. But, then again we’re, we’re custom builders. We’re custom craftsman – we don’t think anything about it. It’s kinda nice to have something ready to go. If we have to alter it a little bit, it’s simple, instead of starting from scratch.”
