Once the planning phase is done your project will be placed into our schedule as soon as the down payment is paid.

Because custom cabinets are made to order, the turnaround time on your project will depend on various factors such as the style of cabinets, how many pieces, and the labor time for each unique piece.

Different Styles of Cabinet Doors

Selecting the proper cabinet door is important because it is the most visible part of your cabinet face. When choosing a cabinet door there are two classifications that will affect how your cabinet looks overall, the way that the door style, and how the door is attached to the cabinet frame. Each will have a large impact on the character of your cabinet.

Cabinet Door Attachments

A full-overlay cabinet door completely covers the front face of the cabinet, and consequently provides more storage space. Because the frame of the cabinet is one hundred percent covered, this one continuous low-profile surface between the cabinets which is extremely popular today.

Cabinets with inset doors have the door set into the frame, sitting fully flush when closed. At times you will see the hinges attached to the outside, and this requires precise work during the fabrication.

Partial overlay cabinets show much more of the cabinet frame, with about 1” to 2” of the frame exposed.

The Differences in Cabinet Door Styles

The recessed panel door makes it look like the center panel is depressed into the cabinet, give it a sleek streamlined feel. This style is used often in contemporary cabinets, and offers a lot of options when it comes to design.

Frameless glass front cabinets have a single glass pane, but no dividing mullions.

Mullion frame doors have vertical and horizonal bars that breakdown the face of the cabinet into sections. The panes or sections have glass inserts so you can see the interior of the cabinet.

Cabinets with raised panel doors have a lifted central panel with a recessed border around it. Raised panel doors are a very popular and can be seen on classic to current day cabinets.

Waterborne finishes are used to add protection against scratches and damage, and it is non toxic to the environment. Waterborne finishes are fast drying and can mirror the look of many other stains and finishes. If you like patterns of grains of your piece of wood and want to change the color, it is great choice.
