A Closer Look at Cabinet Specialties

Though many cabinet shops promote “quality construction” and “timeless designs,” few can truly stand behind them from start to finish. 

We do, and we invite you to take a closer look.

Preconstruction

Whether by our experienced technicians or your trusted contractor, we’ll first take careful measurements from the site to ensure that your cabinetry is built to exact specifications.  we than make a new set of drawing for you to review and approve before we start building your cabinetry

We understand that older home renovations can be unusually challenging, that’s where our 170+ years of combined experience throughout our shop enables us to navigate even the toughest of building projects!

Design

Whether you are working directly with our design team, or have your own interior designer, we will work with you from start to finish to create a space that is truly yours,. We understand that your cabinetry is the focal point of the room and an extension of your
personality. We invite you to view our online gallery and visit our showroom, both featuring many styles and designs that may give you some great ideas from which to build, although you are far from limited to what we show.

We strongly believe that customization is key to designing beautiful and functional cabinetry for every room in your home.

Build

Here’s where your design comes to life, being transformed from simple renderings to three dimensional works of art.  We first select the finest furniture-grade wood products and components.  Pieces are cut, shaped, and pre-sanded as needed.  We then bench-make and assemble each cabinet one by one, making sure all pieces join seamlessly together.  

Our drawer boxes are dovetailed for added durability.  We then carefully fit the doors, drawer fronts, and moldings to ensure the cabinet meets Cabinet Specialties’ quality standards.

Finish

Prior to final assembly, we again sand the cabinet and its components in preparation of the staining or painting coat. Our experienced finish team has also mastered the art of distressed, glazed, and/or rub-thru finishes that can take your cabinetry to an even higher level!

Final Assembly

Once your custom cabinets have been finished, we will do final assembly, (mount doors, drawers, hardware etc.) This final stage ensures that each piece of your fine cabinetry receives attention to every detail! Some assembly may not be completed until your cabinetry arrives at your home for final installation.

Quality Inspection

Of course, we inspect every component of your cabinetry throughout the building, finishing, and final assembly processes. In fact, many of your cabinetry’s pieces may be inspected multiple times to ensure that the final product meets our high quality standards. Any blemish on your cabinetry is also a blemish on our reputation.

Installation

As with the preconstruction phase of your building project, your fine cabinetry will be installed by our experienced technicians or your trusted contractor.  Your cabinetry will be carefully cartoned or blanket-wrapped at our shop and delivered (or shipped) to your home with care, ensuring all pieces arrive in pristine condition. Your cabinetry is then professionally installed to your exact specifications.  

That’s our commitment to you!

Follow-up

We stand behind every piece of cabinetry that bears our name.  While we take great care throughout the construction process, we will gladly work with you to remedy any construction flaws or imperfections that you may find.   However, we cannot take responsibility for damage done to your cabinetry after it has been installed.
