Cabinets Assembled By You
Cabinet Specifications
Due to constant product improvement, specifications are subject to change without notice.
Cabinet Interiors
The cabinet parts are 3/4″ thick 45-pound density industrial board with a thermo-fused melamine surface in White or Natural Hard Rock Maple. Also available is a premium quality Maple or Birch 3/4″ veneer for the construction of the cabinets.
Cabinet End Panels
Cabinet end panels are made of all 3/4″ thick material with a melamine interior standard. All exterior surfaces on cabinet ends are unfinished. You must specify cabinet ends that will be finished/exposed. All finished/exposed cabinet ends are “real” wood veneer available in Red Oak, Birch, Maple, Cherry, Ash, Walnut, Hickory, VG Fir, White Oak, Mahogany, Knotty Pine or a Paint Grade Birch. Also available are laminate applied skins for a finished end. Cabinet ends are fastened to the floor (and tops) with a combination of wood dowels and confirmat screws. The confirmat screws are used from the outside of the cabinet end into the floor. On finished ends we use wood dowels and CAM Furniture Fittings. Both methods provide a very solid and strong method of construction.
Floors, Tops, and Center Floors
Cabinet floors/bottom and tops are all 3/4″ thick material. Cabinet floors on base and tall units will have a melamine surface on the inside. The tops on tall units also have a melamine surface. Most base cabinets have a full top/dust shield instead of rails which is another quality feature. Floors on wall units, center floors and cabinet tops will have a melamine surface on both sides. Cabinet interiors are also available in real wood veneers matching the exterior wood choice for units with open fronts or glass doors.
Cabinet Shelves
Shelves are made of 3/4″ material with a melamine (or veneered if veneered cabinet option is chosen) surface on both sides. All shelves are fully adjustable, with very few exceptions where it is not feasible. Where shelves are permanently exposed we apply a hardwood front to its face and give it a profile that matches the style of your cabinet doors.
Cabinet Backs
Cabinet backs are made of 1/4″ material with a melamine surface (or veneer if a veneered cabinet option is chosen). The backs are set in 11/16″ from the very back of the cabinet. The hanging rails are located behind the cabinet backs, providing a tidy and uncluttered interior.
Cabinet Hardware
All hardware will be included for each type of cabinet in your order. These hardware kits contain a combination of concealed hinges, drawer tracks and shelf clips for that particular cabinet. You can specify which type of Blum concealed hinges you prefer in your cabinets. Hinges will be pre-bored into any doors purchased with a cabinet order. We also have several drawer tracks available sure to satisfy your preference on slides. Supply us with a list of cabinet accessories you would like included with your cabinets and we will get a complete package put together for you.
