The project

Consider drawer placement, appliance doors and grain direction before settling on a cabinet layout.

Start with the tasks you repeat. A shallow drawer beside the range and a clear landing beside the refrigerator can matter more day to day than another tall cabinet.

  • Confirm appliance specifications before fixing openings.
  • Map drawers and door swings at inside corners.
  • Select the wood, hardware and edge treatment together.

Before the first cut

What to bring to the estimate.

Bring the appliance list and a photo of every cabinet wall. Small changes to filler strips and clearances can make the difference between a working drawer and a collision.
