Kitchen Cabinets

Stock, Semi-custom, or Custom Cabinets?

WHICH CABINET OPTION TO CHOOSE?

The main differences between stock, semi-custom, and custom cabinets lie in their level of customization, quality, and price. Stock cabinets offer affordability and quick availability but limited customization options. Semi-custom cabinets provide more flexibility and higher quality materials at a moderate price point. Custom cabinets offer the ultimate in personalization and craftsmanship but come with a higher price tag and longer lead times. The choice depends on budget, design preferences, and project requirements. We offer all types of cabinets from various US manufacturers.

Stock Cabinets

Stock cabinets are pre-made and mass-produced in standard sizes, typically available in predetermined styles, finishes, and configurations. We offer many options of styles and colors.

Slim Shaker Cabinets

Slim Shaker style cabinets are an alternative to the shaker style cabinets for homeowners who like something different but safe. They are becoming popular because they provide a nice, clean, and elegant appearance while not breaking the bank.

Flat Panel cabinets

Flat Panel Cabinets

Are also known as slab cabinets, these have a flat and smooth surface without any raised or recessed panels. They offer a minimalist and contemporary look, often found in modern kitchen designs.

Luxury Cabinets

Distressed Cabinets

Distressed cabinets are intentionally aged or weathered to create a rustic and antique look. These cabinets often feature techniques such as sanding, scraping, or painting to achieve a worn appearance, adding character to the kitchen space.

Inset Cabinets

Inset cabinets are crafted with doors and drawers that fit inside the cabinet frame, creating a flush surface. This style offers a classic and refined appearance, reminiscent of fine furniture craftsmanship.

Glass-front Cabinets

These cabinets incorporate glass panels in the doors, allowing for visibility of the contents inside. They can have a variety of styles, including clear, frosted, or textured glass, and are perfect for displaying decorative items or fine china.

Traditional and Transitional Cabinets

Louvered Cabinets

Louvered cabinets have horizontal wood slats or angled slats arranged like shutters. This design allows for ventilation while adding a unique architectural element to the kitchen space.

Beadboard Cabinets

Bead-board cabinets feature panels with vertical grooves or lines (beads) running along their surface. This style adds texture and visual interest to the kitchen, often evoking a charming cottage or coastal aesthetic.

Raised Panel Cabinets

Raised panel cabinets feature a center panel that is raised above the surrounding frame. This style adds depth and dimension to the cabinet doors, often lending a more traditional or classic look to the kitchen.

Framed vs Frameless Cabinets

The main difference between framed and frameless cabinets lies in the presence or absence of a face frame. Framed cabinets offer a traditional aesthetic with added structural support, while frameless cabinets provide a modern look with maximum storage space and full access to the cabinet interior. The choice between the two depends on personal preference, kitchen style, and functional needs.

Framed Cabinets

Framed cabinets are constructed with a traditional approach where the cabinet door is attached to a frame that is attached to the cabinet box. The frame adds structural support and also serves as a decorative element. The frame typically overlaps the edges of the cabinet box, hiding the edges from view when the doors are closed.


Frameless Cabinets

Frameless cabinets, also known as European-style cabinets, do not have a face frame. Instead, the cabinet doors are directly attached to the sides of the cabinet box. This results in a sleek and modern appearance with full access to the cabinet interior.


Open Shelving

While not traditional cabinets, open shelving is a popular choice for modern kitchens. It involves installing shelves without cabinet doors, providing easy access to items and creating an open and airy feel. Open shelving is ideal for showcasing dishes, cookware, or decorative items.
