Frameless Cabinets
Our frameless cabinet design maximizes interior space with 3mm full overlay construction. Doors and drawers mount directly to 3/4" box parts for modern aesthetics. This design eliminates visible frames between cabinet elements while maintaining structural integrity through reinforced box construction.
Face Frame Cabinets
Classic face frame cabinets feature 1/2" overlay construction with visible hardwood frames between doors. We mount doors and drawers to frames using routed finger pulls or hardware options. This traditional design maintains structural strength while offering timeless visual appeal through exposed frame detailing.
Custom Wood Selection
We offer extensive wood selection including alder, red oak, white oak, maple, cherry, and specialty options like painted birch. Our material choices accommodate various aesthetic preferences while maintaining structural performance. We also provide laminate options from Wilsonart, Pionite, and other premium brands.
Stained Finishes
Our finishing process uses Sherwin Williams SB Stain system with 20% sheen precatalyzed topcoat. This system provides durable protection while maintaining natural wood grain visibility. We offer 14 standard stain colors including Natural Grain, Chocolate Brownie, and Graystone with consistent application across different wood species.

We specialize in large commercial developments including military housing, senior living facilities, and apartment complexes. Our high-volume production capabilities support projects ranging from small renovations to 500+ unit developments. We've completed projects for JBLM Barracks, Malmstrom Air Force Base, and various HUD-compliant housing developments.
