Polytec is probably one of the better brands for Vinyl. As mentioned earlier, heat & sun will age the material. When it comes to peeling, the main cause is when the edges get caught on something (such as another door or drawer) this would be very typical on a kitchen with cheap hinges & drawer runners. As soon as the doors start to knock or bump into each other, they will slowly but surely cause the wrap to unstick, crack & peel. I'd pick a melamine over vinyl door any day. Polytec do a nice range of gloss melamine & even createc, which has the durability of PVC edging. Re: Door Materials 19Jan 23, 2013 7:14 am Totally agree Adam!

I would personally have no problem using them in my kitchen. Vinyls have come a long way in the last ten years, and the days of bad brands of vinyl and glues seem to have almost dissapeared. But if you do have concerns, why not look outside the four common door styles (Melamine, paint, vinyl or laminate) and check out the likes of Ultraglaze, PET or createc? With some of these material you get a mirror finish without imperfections, a huge range of colours, easy to keep clean and very durable. Some manufacturers are now using lazer edges which means perfect edging with no glue line.
