Custom Cabinetry, Cabinet Doors & Cabinet Drawers
Below are just a few of the wood types we offer for our custom cabinets. You can pick any of these for any cabinet as this - in fact - is your dream design!
CHERRY
Boasting a rich, natural reddish-brown tone, Cherry evokes elegance. This solid hardwood is known for its fine, tight grain patterns. When machined and sanded, it's shiny and smooth. It takes stain well, and darkens over time with exposure to light.
MAPLE
Normally whitish or creamy in color, Maple looks clean and radiant in a light stain. Maple is a strong and durable hardwood and tends to be evenly and closely grained. It's perfect for a contemporary feel.
RED OAK
Boasting a rich, natural reddish-brown tone, Cherry evokes elegance. This solid hardwood is known for its fine, tight grain patterns. When machined and sanded, it's shiny and smooth. It takes stain well, and darkens over time with exposure to light.
QUARTER-SAWN OAK
Cut at a 90-degree angle to the grown rings, Quarter-sawn Oak (also known as Rift Cut) has a distinctive straight and vertical grain. Because of the method, this wood is limited in length and width, but highly prized for veneers especially.
RED BIRCH
The heartwood of Red Birch is softer than Oak, but has a tighter grain and takes light and medium stains and finishes well. The wood is smooth and stiff and resists abrasion.
KNOTTY PINE
Light in both weight and color, Knotty Pine contains knots that give it a distinctive character, ranging from pin knots to large bull's-eyes. It is straight grained, usually a blondish-white, and can be stained in a variety of colors or left its natural shade. Knotty Pine is a favorite for provincial or country designs.
HICKORY
A heavyweight contender for your kitchen, Hickory is famous for its extreme strength, flexibility and shock resistance. Once used for wagon wheels, and even the Wright Brothers' historic plane, it exhibits wide variations in colors, ranging from white to chocolate, and provides an alternative to oak for those who prefer an open-grained wood, but have tired of the traditional oak look.
WALNUT
Rare and treasured, Walnut is a durable strong, hard wood with a grain wavier near the roots and straighter at the trunk. Light to chocolate brown, it contains burls, butts and curls, that show off well in a variety of finishes. For reproductions and antique styles, Walnut is versatile and popular, since its luster grows over time - reflecting the incoming light and suffusing a kitchen with a warm glow.
