Questions we hear most

Straight answers about timelines, pricing, materials, our design app, and how the whole process works.

Timelines and process

Pre-finished cabinets: 2–4 weeks. With finishing: 6–8 weeks. Local manufacturing and a systemized process mean your timeline is predictable from day one.

Your cabinets go into production at our Milpitas facility. You'll get updates along the way, and we coordinate delivery timing with you or your contractor. No guessing, no surprises on the schedule.

We focus on manufacturing. Most of our customers work with their own contractor or general contractor for installation. We can recommend installation partners if you need one.

We work with a network of Bay Area contractors and can connect you with trusted professionals for installation and other remodel work.

Yes — up until your CAD drawings are approved and production begins. After that, changes are more limited. The earlier you communicate, the more flexibility we have.

Yes. Every cabinet is delivered fully assembled with doors, drawers, and hardware installed — ready for your contractor to install. No flat-pack assembly required.

Pricing

Kitchen projects typically range from $15K–$35K, averaging around $22K. The final price depends on cabinet count, materials, finishes, and complexity. Our design app shows pricing in real time so you can adjust as you go.

Your quote covers cabinet boxes, doors, drawer fronts, hinges, drawer slides, and your selected finish. Countertops, backsplash, hardware pulls, and installation are separate. We can recommend trusted partners for those.

Stock cabinets come in fixed sizes and limited finishes. Custom cabinets are built to your exact dimensions with the materials and design you choose. You're paying for a kitchen that fits your space precisely — no fillers, no compromises on layout.

Yes. Our design app shows pricing in real time. Swap materials, change door styles, adjust the layout — every change updates the price instantly so you stay in control of your budget.

Our design app calculates pricing as you make decisions. Choose a material, the price updates. Add an island, the price updates. You see the cost of every change before you commit — no waiting days for a revised quote.

50% deposit when you place your order, 50% on completion before delivery or pickup. Trade professional terms are available — ask our team for details.

The design app

Yes. Design your kitchen, explore materials and finishes, and see real-time pricing — all free. Design as many kitchens as you want. When you're ready to move forward, our team is here.

Rough measurements are enough to get started. The app walks you through what's needed. When you're ready to finalize, our design team will verify exact dimensions.

The app uses the same pricing engine our team uses. What you see is your starting price based on your layout and materials. Final pricing is confirmed when exact measurements are verified.

When you're happy with your design, our team reviews it with you, verifies measurements, and handles any advanced customization. From there, your cabinets go into production at our Milpitas facility.

That's exactly what the design app is for. Design your kitchen, see real-time pricing, and explore styles — no sales call required. When you're ready, we're here.

Materials and construction

We offer natural wood options including White Oak, Walnut, Hickory, and Maple, as well as painted finishes, high-gloss, and specialty veneers like Shinnoki and Cleaf. Rubio Monocoat — a plant-based, VOC-free finish — is available for natural wood cabinets.

European-style frameless cabinets have no face frame — the doors and drawers cover the full front of the cabinet box. This gives you a clean, modern look with more interior space and full access to the cabinet contents.

Every cabinet is built at our facility in Milpitas, California. Local manufacturing means shorter lead times, direct quality control, and a team you can visit.

Lifetime warranty on cabinet construction. 5-year warranty on finishes. Blum hardware carries its own lifetime warranty. Full details in our warranty policy.

European-style frameless cabinetry with premium materials and finishes — built locally in weeks, not months from overseas. Shorter timelines, transparent pricing, and a local team you can reach.
