What we build

Custom means the work starts from your room, not from a list of stock sizes.

Kitchen cabinets

Full custom kitchens in painted shaker and other door styles, with uppers taken to the ceiling when you want them there.

Kitchen islands

Drawer stacks, paneled ends and seating overhangs sized to the room and the way you cook.

Pantries and refrigerator enclosures

Tall storage and surrounds that make a freestanding refrigerator look built in.

Built-ins and hutches

Storage walls for dining rooms, living rooms and the awkward spot between two windows.

Desks and furniture

Freestanding pieces built and painted like the cabinetry, so they match what is already in the house.

Shelving and laundry storage

Floating shelves and cabinets cut to fit nooks, soffits and laundry rooms.

Why custom fits better

Stock cabinets are made in fixed widths, usually three inches apart. Your wall was not. The difference gets covered with filler strips.

A custom run is divided to fit the wall, so every inch is drawer or door.

How a project goes

Four steps, and you know where things stand at each one.

  1. Tell us about the room

    Send photos, rough measurements and what you have in mind. A quick sketch on paper is plenty.

  2. Measure and plan

    We measure the space ourselves, work out the layout with you, and settle door style, color and hardware.

  3. Build in Otsego

    Your cabinets are built to those measurements in the shop, not pulled from a warehouse.

  4. Install

    Cabinets are set, leveled and braced so they are ready for countertops.

Questions people ask first

What does it cost to have cabinets custom built?

It depends on the size of the room, how many drawers versus doors, the finish, and how involved the install is. Drawers, tall pantries, glass doors and crown to the ceiling add labor. Send a few photos and rough measurements and we will give you a real number for your room instead of a guess.

What should I have ready before I ask for a quote?

A few photos of the room, rough wall lengths and ceiling height, the appliances you plan to keep or buy, and any pictures of kitchens you like. Rough numbers are fine. We take our own measurements before anything gets built.

How is custom different from the cabinets at a home center?

Stock cabinets come in fixed widths, usually three inches apart, so the leftover space gets covered with filler strips. Custom boxes are sized to your walls, your ceiling height and your appliances, in the door style and color you pick.

Can you match a paint color or an existing piece?

Bring the color name, a paint chip or a photo of what you want to match and tell us about it in the form. Our recent projects include white, sage green, deep green and charcoal, each chosen by the homeowner.

Do you only build kitchens?

No. Kitchens are most of the work, but the same shop builds islands, hutches, pantries, desks, laundry storage and shelving. If it is made of wood and needs to fit a specific spot, ask.

Where do you work?

The shop is in Otsego, Minnesota. Most projects are in Otsego and the towns around it, including Elk River, Albertville, St. Michael, Rogers and Monticello. If you are a little farther out, send a note and ask.

Tell us about your project

A few details are enough to start. Rough measurements are fine.

  1. You send the basics about the room.
  2. We get in touch to talk it through and set a time to measure.
  3. You get a price for your room, not a ballpark for somebody else's.

We need your name and a phone number or email. Everything else is optional.
