FAQs

The Corner Cabinet

  • How long does it take to get the cabinet?

    Cabinet delivery typically takes between 2 to 5 weeks, depending on our current workload and production schedule.
  • What is the difference between stock, semi-custom, and custom cabinets?

    Stock cabinets come pre-manufactured in standard sizes with 3-inch increments. Semi-custom cabinets offer more design options and size flexibility, while custom cabinets are built precisely to your specifications and measurements.
  • What should I check for in quality construction?

    For quality cabinet construction, we recommend checking for solid wood or HDF doors, plywood cabinet boxes, and dovetail joinery in the drawers, as these indicate superior craftsmanship.
  • What is the difference between framed and frameless cabinets?

    Frameless cabinets don't have a front frame, creating a sleek, modern appearance with full-overlay doors. Framed cabinets feature a visible frame that accommodates partial overlay, full-overlay, or inset doors.
  • Should I buy all plywood cabinets?

    While plywood offers greater strength and moisture resistance compared to particleboard, high-quality HDF (High-Density Fiberboard) is also quite durable, particularly for painted cabinets in drier environments.
  • Do I need to know my appliances before ordering?

    Yes, knowing your exact appliance models is essential before ordering cabinets since 'standard' dimensions vary between manufacturers, and refrigerators continue to increase in size. This ensures your cabinets will fit properly with your appliances.
  • Should kitchen cabinets be placed on top of flooring?

    Yes, having flooring extend beneath your cabinets is generally recommended for better stability, a consistent finished look, and greater flexibility for future layout or flooring changes.
  • Can I tear out my old cabinets before the new ones arrive?

    We strongly recommend against removing your existing cabinets before the new ones arrive, as potential shipping delays could leave you without a functional kitchen for an extended period.
  • How do I clean my cabinets?

    Clean your cabinets using a soft, damp cloth with mild liquid dish soap. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, ammonia, or bleach as these can damage the cabinet finish.
  • How do I avoid damaging my cabinets?

    To preserve your cabinets, avoid extreme humidity conditions, wipe up water immediately rather than letting it sit on surfaces, and don't use soap-covered sponges that might contain grease residue.
