Frequently Asked Questions
What is the new Sarah Richardson for Allstyle Retrofit collection?
You’ve seen Sarah transform drab and dated spaces into dynamite designer creations that bear no resemblance to their former incarnation. Now you can bring “Sarah’s Style” home. With 20 brand new door profiles envisioned by Canada’s best-known designer offered in 14 signature Sarah colours (or any colour of your choice), we’ve got hundreds of combinations that will turn your blank canvas into the storage solution of your dreams! Customizable cabinetry has never been easier to achieve. It’s just like having Sarah in your back pocket, ready to help you get the job done.
Where do I start?
It all starts with the efficiency and ease of IKEA. Known for creating affordable and adaptable quality kitchen, closet and bathroom cabinetry components that let you, the homeowner, take the driver’s seat in design. IKEA has the frames and customer-friendly software to make your renovation dreams a reality. Sarah Richardson for Allstyle Retrofit has what you need to take organization and design to the next level, wherever you want or need to elevate your storage space.
How does it work?
We encourage our customers to plan their kitchen through the IKEA design software. Whether you choose to do this yourself or get some expert help from IKEA, we use this to match your design with the components needed from us to accommodate your needs. Our team will walk you through the styles, materials and colours you need to take your IKEA kitchen to the next level. Customers can also plan their dream closet through the PAX design software as we can customize those as well! We can also customize GODMORGON vanities, but we recommend SEKTION cabinets as a base for their versatility.
What else do you offer besides doors and drawer fronts?
Allstyle Retrofit can enhance your installation with high quality dovetail drawer boxes, custom range hoods, floating shelves, as well as panel, trim and moulding components to complete your design vision.
Can I see a sample?
No problem! Just hop on over to the door samples section of the site and order up a sample door. Not sure exactly what colour is perfectly you? Order the full set of colour swatch samples and get inspired to tackle every area of your home that’s crying out for stylish new storage solutions.
What is the timeframe?
As our process is made to order, most projects require 6-8 weeks to be ready to ship.
Do I have to use the IKEA planner tool?
We prefer to review and work from your IKEA design in their home planner software. However, if you have other drawings to outline and support your needs, we can work with those too.
Do you make doors for non-IKEA?
We do. As our business is a supply-only model, we would require more information from you to ensure we have all the details correct to fabricate the doors for your non-IKEA cabinetry.
Do you offer installation?
We don’t offer installation service as we ship all over North America. We focus on the product supply portion of your project. We may have some referrals or recommendations depending on where you are located.
What if I want to use a different colour?
That’s part of the beauty of our concept. You can choose any colour you like. We can work with colours from most large paint companies.
Do you have a showroom? Can I make an appointment?
Absolutely! To inquire about our showroom and schedule an appointment, please visit our contact page. We’d be delighted to assist you and introduce you to our extensive collection of cabinetry options.

Are your doors pre-drilled for IKEA hinges and drawer mounts?
Yes. When we process your order to fit the IKEA cabinets, we ensure the hinge holes match the drilling holes on IKEA products so they pair together perfectly.
Do you drill for handle hardware?
No, this is best done during the installation with your specific hardware.
Which IKEA cabinet systems do your doors work with?
We have engineered the precise fitment of our doors to work with IKEA’s Akurum (kitchen cabinet line prior to 2014), Sektion (current kitchen cabinet line), Godmorgon vanities, Pax wardrobes, and Besta units.
Do your doors work with non-IKEA cabinets?
Yes. We make doors to fit any cabinet system, however the IKEA cabinets have been pre-engineered for a seamless fit. If you have non-IKEA cabinets we would need accurate information provided to us to ensure the proper fitment.
Do you accept returns, exchanges or refunds?
Due to the made-to-order nature of our business we are unable to process refunds, exchanges or returns. Your custom order is made specifically for you. If anything on your order arrives in less than perfect condition we are here to help with a resolution and offer a warranty policy to support our customers.
