After decades of witnessing the difference between kitchen remodels with and without custom cabinetry, Details Construction Group can honestly say that custom cabinets can make a tremendous difference in the finished product.
Custom Cabinets Optimize Any Kitchen Remodel
Our custom cabinets are designed in-house and built using the highest-quality craftsmanship. Our cabinetmakers can do this within the general parameters of your kitchen design or go outside the box to work with creative or meaningful ideas about integrating custom elements you’ve always wanted.
Here are some of the reasons we feel custom cabinets are worth the investment in a complete kitchen remodel or renovation.
1. They’re Tailored To Your Household’s Kitchen Use
First and foremost, custom cabinetry is designed inside and out to fit your kitchen – and your kitchen lifestyle. This is something that “standard” cabinets just can’t do to the same level of style and efficiency. Kitchen cabinets should always support a functional workflow in the kitchen.
When we work with clients, we take a comprehensive approach to their kitchen design. Of course, what you want and need today takes center stage, but we’ll also learn about your future goals and any relevant potential changes—like future child-rearing, empty nesting, or age-related realities for yourself or your parents.
Other things that matter when thinking about custom cabinet designs are:
- Any unique structural features in your kitchen.
- Does your small space negatively impact kitchen life?
- Do you bake as well as cook?
- How often do you entertain?
- Are you a leftie?
- Does anyone in your household have (or face future) mobility challenges?
- Is the primary cook in the household notably shorter or taller than average?
Answers to these and other questions may inherently point you in the direction of custom cabinets because there is so much more we can do to make your kitchen function as seamlessly, comfortably, and accessibly as possible.
2. Interiors Optimized For Storage
Part of creating a more functional kitchen is ensuring it is decluttered, organized, and accessible. Customized kitchen cabinets are the star of the show in this department.
When we assess your kitchen from a systems perspective, custom kitchen cabinets are the means to the end.
- No wasted space. When you think about the standard kitchen cabinet box, there is so much wasted air space. This means it takes more cabinets to house the same amount of kitchenware and tools. With thoughtful attention to storage solutions, we not only maximize what can be stored where, but we often also find we can eliminate some expanses of cabinet boxes altogether. This opens up valuable kitchen space.
- Organized with intention. Most homeowners do a good job of filling up kitchen cabinets and drawers to have what they need in their general locations. However, sometimes, the way a kitchen is unpacked initially doesn’t continue to adapt to how the kitchen evolves over the years. When designing your cabinets, we’ll take inventory of what you have and where you use it – choosing internal cabinet storage options that make the most sense.
- Multiple, mixable, interior options. Shelves and tailored slots were the only options for decades. Now, so many unique interior storage options are available for kitchen cabinets. From rotating lazy Susans and pull-down spice racks to shelves that glide seamlessly out for easy access, personalized interior storage options keep everything you need at your fingertips – without bending, twisting, or endlessly rearranging to find what you seek.
3. Personalized Style, Details, & Adornments
One of the most notable things about handmade custom cabinetry is the ability to personalize it aesthetically. Hybrid “custom cabinets” give you patterns to choose from, but genuinely custom cabinetry means you can make the cabinets look precisely how you want them to.
- Is there a cabinet style you’ve seen in a historic home or remember from childhood?
- Is there a carved monogram you’d like to have added to the hood or elsewhere in the trim?
- Have a special furniture piece or heirloom kitchen remnant you’d like to preserve and incorporate into the design?
- Is there a storage or other kind of idea you’ve wished were possible but can’t find in online searches or cabinet shopping forays?
Our custom cabinet studio makes these and other things possible, giving your kitchen a one-of-a-kind look and feel.
