What we plan and install

Cabinet layouts planned around your room.

Kitchen cabinets and islands. Bathroom vanities. Closets and built-ins. We plan the layout around your room and help you choose cabinet styles, finishes and storage options. Your cabinet selections and installation scope go into the same three tiers you'll see on the pricing page.

  • Planned around your room. We design the cabinet layout around your measurements, storage needs and the way you use the room.
  • Designed with you at the showroom. Designer Jessica sets the door styles, wood species, paint and stain samples, and hardware side by side at the showroom, so you choose from real pieces, not a catalog page.
  • Installed by the same team. Cabinets, millwork, and carpentry are what Hawaiʻi C-5 License CT-37515 covers, and the people who plan yours are the people who hang them. Anything outside that is named in your written scope before we start, so nothing gets figured out mid-install.

How it works

Three steps, and you see every one of them.

STEP 1

Design with Jessica at the showroom

Bring a photo of your room and your measurements. Jessica helps you pick the door style, wood, finish, and hardware, and we put the layout, tier, and price in writing before work starts.

STEP 2

Plan your installation

Your cabinet layout, selections and installation schedule are agreed in writing, so you know what goes where and when the room will be ready.

STEP 3

Installed by the same team

The same team that designed your cabinets with you installs them, levels and scribes them to your walls, sets the doors and drawers, and walks the room with you before we call it done.

Cabinet options for every tier

Three levels of cabinetry, the same three tiers as every room we do.

Cabinetry is where your tier shows most. Here's what each level means in plain words, matched to the Beautiful, Impressive, and Exquisite tiers you'll see on the pricing page and in your written scope.

Beautiful

Stock lines, chosen well

Quality stock cabinetry from in-stock and builder-series lines: framed boxes, laminate or thermofoil doors in Shaker or slab styles, and a set range of colors and woodgrains. We help you pick the right line for your room, then fit and install it cleanly in the layout you have now.

Impressive

Semi-custom, plywood boxes, soft-close

Semi-custom lines (KraftMaid, Yorktowne, and Diamond are typical of the grade, not a fixed catalog): plywood boxes, framed or frameless, full-extension soft-close dovetail drawers, painted MDF or maple Shaker doors, and a wide paint and stain range. More sizes and inserts, so the kitchen or closet fits the way you use it.

Exquisite

Detailed layouts and premium selections

A detailed cabinet layout, premium finishes, and coordinated lighting and storage. We help you choose cabinet sizes, door styles, wood and finish options. The agreed materials and options go into your written scope.

Built for island weather

Cabinets that don't mind the humidity.

Oʻahu is humid, the air near the coast carries salt, and termites are part of life here. Damp air swells and warps wood that isn't sealed, and termites go after anything soft and untreated. So we think about the climate before the door style: materials that hold their shape in island air, finishes that seal the edges you'll never see, and a little room for the wood to breathe. If we find termite or moisture damage behind an old cabinet, you hear about it before we go further, with your options in writing.

Questions, answered

Cabinetry questions, answered

How do you plan a cabinet layout?

We design cabinet layouts around your room, help you choose styles and finishes, and install the selected cabinets. Bring your room measurements and ideas to Jessica at the showroom. Your layout, cabinet selections, price and schedule go into your written scope before work starts.

Can new cabinets match the ones I already have?

Bring a door or a photo to the showroom. We can compare your existing style and finish with the cabinet options available for your project. Availability and the condition of your existing cabinets guide whether an addition or replacement makes sense. The agreed cabinet selection goes into your written scope.

How long does a cabinet project take?

It depends on cabinet availability, delivery lead time and how much of the room changes around the installation. A cabinet-only job, like a new vanity, a closet, or a built-in, is shorter than a full kitchen, where cabinetry, counters, and the licensed trades share one schedule. Before anything begins, you get the start date and the schedule in writing for your specific scope, and if a date moves, you hear it from us first.

Can I hire you just for cabinets, without a full remodel?

Yes. New kitchen cabinets, a bathroom vanity, a closet system, an entertainment wall, or a run of bookcases are all projects on their own, and cabinet, millwork, and carpentry work is exactly what our C-5 license covers. If the job touches plumbing or wiring, say a new vanity that moves the sink, the licensed plumber or electrician for that part is named in your written scope. Start with Jessica at the showroom, Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m., or call (808) 900-7540.

What wood and finishes hold up on Oʻahu?

Plywood boxes over particleboard, because particleboard swells when it takes on moisture and Oʻahu's air is never really dry. Doors finished on every side, not just the face, so humidity can't work into the wood from behind. For inset doors, white oak and walnut are the two species on our Exquisite tier, and hardware that shrugs off salt air matters most in Windward and beach homes. Termites are a fact of life here, so before cabinets go in we look at the framing behind them and put anything we find in writing, never in a surprise charge. Plywood boxes are part of both the Impressive and Exquisite tiers.
