Our Shaker Slims Down
Monroe: Our newest full overlay door style.
They say good things take time. At Marsh, it’s our guiding principle in deciding how, and when, new products are launched. This also means that after months of ensuring that every aspect has been thoughtfully considered—from the joinery to the solid back for hardware considerations—we’re launching a new full overlay door style.
Introducing Monroe: a slimmed down take on our iconic Shaker-style door.
Monroe’s sleek profile, both on-trend and timeless, is incredibly versatile. Choosing the right cabinetry is one of the (if not the) most essential elements in designing a kitchen and Monroe’s unembellished, but classic style is the perfect place to start.
“Monroe integrates easily and seamlessly with other styles found within a living space whether leaning more classic or contemporary,” says Mary Baber, design & training manager for Marsh. “Embodying the simplicity and clean lines of Shaker, but with thinner stiles and rails, it draws the perfect amount of attention.”
This makes Monroe the perfect complement to some of our favorite 2025 kitchen design trends that create drama and add personality.
Bold color
This year, color is taking the lead. Monroe’s traditional-yet-modern style makes a striking statement in bold cabinetry finish colors, like Hunt or Midnight. Or keep your cabinets neutral with painted or stained finishes like Salt or Nutmeg and add a dramatic wall color or backsplash.
Handsome hardware
Brass is still a popular choice for kitchens—with good reason! Perfect for high-use spaces, as brass wears, it only looks more beautiful. Statement hardware in brushed brass is classic, trend-forward, and pairs perfectly with Monroe. The possibilities are endless with Monroe’s solid back!
Statement stone
Statement backsplashes and countertops are continuing to have a moment. Bold, unexpected stone colors and full-height backsplashes bring a contemporary flair to a more traditional kitchen look and feel. Monroe’s sleek proportions play off this modern twist while keeping things classic.
Trending and timeless
This more contemporary and updated take on Shaker-style cabinets is quickly becoming a new staple in kitchen design. Monroe’s slim profile strikes a perfect balance between trend-forward and timeless style.
Offered in all available finishes across oak, maple, cherry, paintable hardwood, and painted oak, experience Monroe’s true versatility with our Style Selector.
