Last week we had an intimate look at Solaré with its versatile furniture leg and foot options as well as the availability of both inset and full overlay door style selections. This week, I’d like to walk you through Portico and Veranda and compare two collections that look similar at first, but a closer look reveals key details that set them apart from one another.
Portico and Veranda Similarities
- Portico and Veranda collections are both available in full overlay and inset styles.
- Both collections’ vanity base cabinets include a top detail molding.
- Linen and vanity base cabinets also both include a decorative base molding.
As you can see in the photos above, there are subtle differences in each of the molding profiles. These nuances set the two collections apart.
In addition, the Portico collection includes a specialty valance cut-out within the base molding of vanity and linen cabinets:


A little something special for Portico and Veranda
We knew it was important to include key styling options for your creativity to flourish and meet the demand of your client’s personal taste, hence the slight architectural differences in the molding profiles between Portico and Veranda.
81% of over 100,000 participants surveyed prioritized beauty over all other aspects of their remodel.*

But we were also sure to include the key flexibility options you’ve come to expect from Medallion–modifications that ease installation and complete the tailored and customized end result. I think you’ll find that the most beneficial modification within these two collections is the ability to extend the front stile and moldings. This allows you to scribe your vanity or linen cabinet into a return wall (or between two walls) while maintaining the design element of the top and base moldings on the cabinet.

In addition to having the ability to fit the vanity and linen cabinets to a particular wall space, you will find a host of other styling options to help you create unique designs–mullion doors, glass or mirror inserts, and finished interior modifications, just to name a few!

So, as you can see, while the Portico and Veranda collections do share some qualities, the subtle details of each collection will stand out and lend themselves to the personal taste preference of the individual client.
