To better understand all the many facets and parts that are used to create your custom cabinetry, we’ve included a few diagrams to help you become more familiar with the different terms and vocabulary, that we may use, on how cabinets are constructed. If you should have any questions please do not hesitate to ask. We are always more than happy to be of service!
Depending on the type of material or wood species you choose for your custom cabinet project it will determine the style, pricing and options. We offer several different type of wood selections, including our superior paint grade MDF.
“I just wanted to convey how happy we are with the cabinets in the entire home. We are really pleased with the white cabinets in the kitchen and the fireplace designed with the wood and marble. We have had many compliments. They are beautifully done and we could not be more pleased. Thanks for the beautiful work that you did.”
~ Sue and Rudy B.
There are 5 separate pieces that make up a wood cabinet door: 2 – Stile’s, 2 – Rails and a center Panel. These pieces are then connected to create one door. Wood doors can be completed in a variety of styles and finishes. The construction of these doors are made to create an even swing weight, a variety of style options and to be durable! Stop in our showroom or visit our Gallery page to see style options and possibilities!
MDF is an engineered wood product that has become the preferred material for painted doors. Why? It has all the attributes of solid wood but is extremely stable, offers a smooth surface for painting and is more economical than painting a natural wood door. It is constructed of one solid piece, but can be customized to show a traditional Stile and Rail construction.

In addition to choosing either a raised or flat center panel for your doors and or drawers, you will also have additional choices available when deciding on the kind of profiles you want. Profiles are used on the inside and outside edges of the door. Custom profiles are also available per request.
In choosing a look for your cabinets, the kind of door style you choose plays a significant role in the overall look of your room. The center panel could either be Flat or have a Raised Panel. Creating two very distinctive looks.
The center panel of the cabinet door is flat rather than raised or contoured. Flat panel doors are favored by those who prefer sleek, clean designs. Flat panel cabinet doors can be traditional, transitional and even contemporary.
The center panel of the cabinet door is raised with a profile or contour. Raised panel cabinet doors work well for traditional and transitional looks.
