Architectural Wraps vs Joinery Replacement: What’s the Better Choice?

placeholder

Planning a fitout or renovation? If you’re thinking about replacing joinery, wall panels or built-in cabinetry consider architectural wraps first.

These high-performance surface films replicate the look and feel of premium materials, giving your space a whole new finish without demolition or downtime.

What are architectural wraps?

Architectural wraps are durable, self-adhesive films designed to mimic surfaces like:

  • Timber

  • Stone

  • Concrete

  • Matte or metallic finishes

  • Marble or brushed textures


They can be applied to flat or curved surfaces, including cabinetry, wall panels, doors, counters and columns.

The case for wraps over replacement

Replacing joinery means:

  • Removing existing fixtures

  • Managing trades and timelines

  • Generating waste

  • Higher materials and labour costs

  • Disruption to your space


Architectural wraps, on the other hand:

  • Are installed quickly with minimal mess

  • Cost significantly less

  • Breathe new life into tired surfaces

  • Offer consistent finish and flexibility

  • Extend the life of your existing fitout

Where wraps work best

  • Commercial office refurbishments

  • Hospitality or retail upgrades

  • Lift interiors and wall panels

  • Kitchenettes, cabinets and storage walls

  • Reception desks, wardrobes or display units


They’re especially useful in tenanted buildings or short-term lease environments where full renovation isn’t an option.

Durability and maintenance

Modern architectural films are made to last. Many are:

  • Scratch-resistant

  • Stain-resistant

  • Easy to clean

  • Fire-rated for commercial use

  • Designed to hold up to daily wear in high-traffic areas
