We had a new oven installed and our installers scratched one of the doors on our cabinets. It looks fairly deep, so I am not sure if this is repairable or if we would need to get the whole door replaced. If we do need to get it replaced, would it be difficult to match the color of the rest of the drawers? They are about 8 years old, so not sure if there is any fading that has occurred that would make it difficult to match with a new one.
That's not practically repairable--the cross-grain scratch in veneer and gouge in the molding profile can't be simply sanded out, and only the cabinet shop can match the finish color and sheen anyway. You can reduce its prominence with wiping stain or color polish, but you won't remove the damage. In my professional experience you'd be calling the cabinet shop for a replacement and sending the bill to the appliance shop.
8 years isn't too long if the cabinet shop is still around and has records. The stains they use are often reliably consistent. You won't know until you see it, of course, but it'll probably still be better than what any repair would look like.
There are wood-fill pencils, you can match the color as close as possible and fill in the scratch. It's not perfect but the damage will be less visible. I've also heard that Old English oil works well, so maybe some combination of the two would work.
