Kitchen Kompact 12-1/2"W x 27"H DWhite Replacement Door, Recessed Panel - DW27X12

Kitchen Kompact Replacement Door For DWhite Cabinets

Kitchen Kompact replacement door identifies this as a Kitchen Kompact DWhite door sized 12-1/2 inches wide by 27 inches high, so it serves as a direct replacement where that DW27X12 dimension is required in an existing Kitchen Kompact layout. The recessed panel design matches typical Kitchen Kompact styling, which helps maintain a consistent look when a single door needs to be swapped out in a run of cabinets. The product is identified as part number DW27X12, so installers can match it precisely to drawings or prior orders that specify that code. The Kitchen Kompact product class ties it to the same construction approach used across Kitchen Kompact cabinets, supporting uniform performance when this door is integrated into a larger installation. The SAP description identifies the finish tone as DWhite, aligning color with other DWhite components in a Kitchen Kompact job.

Construction Details That Support Cabinet Use

• All frames are built of solid 3/4 inch oak, maple or beech, which gives the door a substantial frame that resists damage in everyday kitchen use and holds hinge fasteners securely over time.
• Each rail is kiln-dried, joined by mortise and tenon, and then glued for added strength, so the joints are designed to stay tight under normal door operation and reduce the chance of racking or twist at the corners.
• Solid wood corner blocks are glued and power nailed, tying critical points together so the cabinet structure around this door remains rigid where it supports hinges and absorbs repeated opening and closing.
• Solid wood toe kicks, 3/4 inch thick, are part of the Kitchen Kompact system, helping base cabinets below matching doors handle day-to-day foot contact and cleaning without excessive deformation.
• Solid wood hanging strips on wall and base cabinets are located at the top and bottom, which distributes cabinet loads against the wall and helps keep door reveals more stable in service.
• End panels use 3-ply construction with a 1/2 inch thick engineered wood core and hardwood veneers, so the casework tied to this door has balanced panels that help limit movement and keep hinge alignment more predictable.

Fit, Size, And Door Integration In Runs

The 12-1/2 inch width and 27 inch height define the opening this DW27X12 cabinet door is intended to cover, which is important when aligning it with existing Kitchen Kompact face frames in a DWhite kitchen. The solid 3/4 inch frame stock provides enough thickness for standard cabinet hinges to bite properly, supporting consistent reveal lines along adjacent doors in the same run. Mortise-and-tenon rail construction keeps the door square, which helps limit uneven gaps and rubbing at the stile edges during installation and everyday use. The recessed panel layout also affects the visual margin between panel and frame, helping installers match sight lines to neighboring doors built on the same Kitchen Kompact system. Because this door is part of the Kitchen Kompact DWhite line, finish and frame profile are coordinated for use alongside other DWhite components.

Using This DWhite Door In Kitchen Kompact Work

Where The DW27X12 DWhite Door Is Applied

The DW27X12 cabinet door size is suited to Kitchen Kompact cabinets where a 27 inch high opening is laid out, so it fits typical wall or base configurations designed around that dimension. Within a DWhite Kitchen Kompact run, this 12-1/2 inch width slots into face-frame bays that match that measurement, supporting clean alignment from cabinet to cabinet. The solid 3/4 inch oak, maple, or beech frame allows the door to be used in locations that see regular handling, such as food storage or everyday dish access, without relying on thin or composite framing. Because the recessed panel is part of the design, this door is appropriate anywhere that appearance needs to match other recessed-panel Kitchen Kompact DWhite fronts in the project. Installers working with Kitchen Kompact cabinets can apply this part number when plans call out DW27X12, tying the field work directly to the specified component.

Why Kitchen Kompact Construction Supports Repeatable Results

The use of kiln-dried rails in the frame helps control moisture movement, so the door is better positioned to hold its shape and keep reveals consistent after installation in normal kitchen environments. Mortise-and-tenon joinery, backed by glue, spreads load through the joint instead of relying only on face fasteners, which supports repeated opening and closing without loosening at the corners. The broader Kitchen Kompact cabinet construction - with solid wood corner blocks, solid wood toe kicks, and solid wood hanging strips - creates a stiff box around the door, helping hinges stay aligned relative to the cabinet case. End panels built with a 3-ply, 1/2 inch engineered wood core and hardwood veneers are designed to remain dimensionally stable, so door gaps at panel interfaces are less likely to shift under typical service conditions. Together, these construction details give installers predictable behavior across a DWhite Kitchen Kompact installation that specifies this DW27X12 replacement door.
