Choosing the Right Materials for Your Home
The material is the soul of the cabinet. Our expertise ensures we choose the right one for both beauty and durability in your specific application.
For kitchens, we prioritize strength and a flawless finish. Hardwoods like maple are an ideal base for painted finishes due to their smooth, stable grain. For a classic, stained look, quarter-sawn white oak offers incredible stability and a timeless aesthetic that withstands the daily use of a busy family. We construct our cabinet boxes from high-grade, formaldehyde-free plywood for maximum structural integrity.
