Residential Custom Cabinets
Kitchen Cabinets
The kitchen is where custom construction pays off most: full-height wall cabinets to a 9-foot ceiling with no filler panels, blind-corner pullouts instead of dead space, and base cabinets fit exactly between the chimney chase and exterior wall.
Standard build: 3/4" plywood boxes, dovetailed solid maple drawer boxes, Blum or Grass soft-close hardware. Door styles: flat-panel slab, five-piece Shaker, or raised-panel with applied molding, in painted, stained, glazed, or natural finishes across white oak, cherry, walnut, and maple.
Interior fittings: tray dividers above the wall oven, roll-out trash/recycling pullouts, door-mounted spice racks, drawer peg systems for dishes, and under-cabinet lighting with integrated wiring channels.
Bathroom Cabinets
Bathroom vanities face constant humidity, so we specify moisture-resistant materials from the start.
Long Island Custom Cabinets uses marine-grade or exterior-grade plywood in the sink base, catalyzed conversion varnish on stained pieces, and toe-kick details that keep the cabinet bottom off a wet floor.
Vanity depth is where custom helps most. A standard 21-inch vanity does not fit a narrow Cape Cod half-bath, so we build 15-inch and 18-inch depths with drawers notched around the P-trap.
We also build:
Type Typical Application
Floating vanity Small powder rooms, contemporary designs
Double vanity Primary baths, 60"–84" runs
Linen tower Floor-to-ceiling storage beside the vanity
Medicine cabinet Recessed between studs, mirrored door
Over-toilet unit Adds shelving in tight layouts
Closet Cabinets
Closet systems are built as fixed cabinetry, not adjustable wire kits.
Long Island Custom Cabinets designs around what you actually store: hanging length for long coats and dresses, double-hang sections for shirts and folded pants, and drawer banks sized for the items that usually end up in a dresser.
A walk-in closet in a colonial-style home typically gets perimeter shelving, an island with drawers if the footprint allows, and shoe shelving angled for visibility.
Reach-in closets get a different treatment. We remove the single rod and shelf, then install a full-depth unit with drawers below and adjustable shelving above.
Options include soft-close drawers, valet rods, belt and tie pullouts, hampers on slides, glass-front drawer faces, and LED strip lighting on a door-activated switch.
Bedroom Cabinets
Built-in bedroom cabinetry frees up floor space in rooms where a dresser and nightstands would crowd the layout. Long Island Custom Cabinets builds wall-to-wall wardrobe walls, headboard units with integrated nightstand cabinets, window seats with drawer storage beneath, and dressers scribed to fit an alcove.
In Long Island homes with dormers or sloped ceilings, we frequently build knee-wall cabinets that use the low space behind an angled wall. These are typically drawer units on full-extension slides, since shelving in that area is hard to reach.
Finishes are matched to existing trim, or painted to contrast with the wall color. We also integrate outlets, USB charging, and reading lights directly into headboard and nightstand units when the electrical is accessible.
Pantry Cabinets
Pantry cabinetry is judged on how much you can reach without moving something else out of the way.
Long Island Custom Cabinets builds pullout pantries as narrow as 9 inches for gaps beside a refrigerator, and full walk-in pantry fit-outs with 12- to 16-inch-deep shelving on three walls.
Roll-out shelves are standard in our tall pantry units. Fixed shelves deeper than 14 inches make items in the back inaccessible, so we use slides rated at 100 pounds for canned goods and small appliances.
Details we frequently include:
- Adjustable shelf pins on 32mm spacing
- Door-mounted racks for spices and oils
- Appliance garages with tambour or lift-up doors
- Countertop-height sections for a coffee or mixer station
- Toe-kick drawers for flat items like baking sheets
Laundry Room Cabinets
Laundry rooms need to hold detergent, cleaning supplies, and folded clothes while working around plumbing and vent lines.
Our team builds wall cabinets above front-load washers and dryers at a height that clears the lids or doors, plus a countertop across the appliances for folding.
For stacked units, we build a tall cabinet alongside for hanging space and a pullout hamper below.
Standard features include a pullout drying rack, a slim rolling cabinet in the gap between machines, and a lower cabinet with a slop-sink cutout when a utility sink is present.
Laminate and thermofoil doors hold up well in laundry rooms with high humidity, though painted wood is also common when the room is visible from a hallway or kitchen.
Mudroom Cabinets
Mudroom cabinetry handles daily traffic from a side door or garage entry, so we build it heavier than typical furniture.
Bench seats are constructed with 3/4" plywood and solid-wood edge banding, supported to hold an adult sitting to remove boots.
A typical layout includes:
- Cubbies 14–16 inches wide per family member
- Double coat hooks mounted on a solid backer
- Upper cabinets or open shelves for hats and gloves
- Bench with lift-top or drawer storage below
- Open lower shelf for shoes, kept off the floor for cleaning
Our builders often add a lockable cabinet for household items and a charging drawer near the entry.
Painted finishes in satin or semi-gloss are the practical choice here because they clean easily.
Entertainment Cabinets
Media cabinetry has to hold equipment, manage heat, and hide cables.
Long Island Custom Cabinets build wall units around fireplaces, floor-to-ceiling bookcase walls, and low-profile consoles sized to the television and the wall behind it.
Ventilation is planned during design. Component bays get rear cutouts, and enclosed cabinets can be fitted with quiet cooling fans when a receiver generates significant heat.
Our builders run conduit or grommets between compartments so cables reach from the TV to equipment without visible runs.
Adjustable shelving, glass doors with IR-transparent glass for remotes, integrated LED shelf lighting, and drawer bases for game consoles and controllers are common additions. Bookcase sections are built with solid backs and shelf spans under 36 inches to prevent sagging.
Garage Cabinets
Garage cabinetry works in an unconditioned space with temperature swings and moisture, so material choice matters.
Our contractors use melamine-faced particleboard or plywood with sealed edges, and specify powder-coated steel or aluminum-frame doors when the environment is especially damp.
Wall-hung cabinets keep everything off the concrete floor, which protects contents during flooding and simplifies cleaning.
Typical configurations include:
Component Purpose
Base cabinets with workbench top Tool work and project surface
Tall utility lockers Rakes, brooms, ladders
Overhead wall units Seasonal storage, paint
Open shelving Bins, sports gear
Pegboard or slatwall panels Hand tool organization
Locking hardware is available for cabinets holding chemicals or power tools.
Utility Room Cabinets
Utility rooms hold mechanical equipment, so cabinetry has to leave service clearance around the boiler, water heater, or electrical panel.
Long Island Custom Cabinets measure required clearances during the site visit and build around them, using removable panels where access is needed but visual concealment is preferred.
Storage in these rooms tends to be functional: deep shelving for filters and supplies, tall cabinets for cleaning equipment, and a small counter for a workspace.
Our builders use moisture-resistant materials throughout, since utility rooms often sit in basements or attached to garages.
Louvered or slotted doors are an option where airflow around equipment is a code or manufacturer requirement.
Basement Storage Cabinets
Long Island basements vary widely in moisture levels, and we build accordingly.
Where a basement is finished, conditioned, and dry, we use the same plywood construction as upstairs rooms. In areas with a history of dampness, we switch to PVC or marine-grade plywood boxes and raise the toe kick.
Common basement projects include wet bars with sink bases and glass racks, home office built-ins, playroom storage, home gym cabinetry, and full media walls.
Low ceilings are the recurring constraint. We adjust upper cabinet heights and often use horizontal wall cabinets with lift-up doors rather than tall units that crowd a 7-foot ceiling.
Under-stair cabinetry is another frequent request, with angled drawers and pullouts that use the full triangle of space.
Dining Room Cabinets
Dining room cabinetry is usually the most visible woodwork in the house, so joinery and finish detail carry more weight.
Long Island Custom Cabinets build china cabinets with glass doors and interior lighting, buffets and sideboards sized to the wall between doorways, and built-in banquettes with storage under the seats.
Coffee bars and beverage centers are increasingly requested. These typically include a counter surface, an undercounter refrigerator, glass storage above, and drawers for accessories.
Detail options include:
- Crown molding matched to existing room trim
- Furniture-style feet and applied panels
- Glass shelving with edge polishing
- Plate grooves in wood shelving
- Adjustable wine racking
- Felt-lined silverware drawers
We match stain color and sheen to existing dining room furniture or trim when a room is only partially renovated.
Commercial Custom Cabinets
Retail Display Cabinets
Retail cabinetry has to sell product and survive customer contact at the same time.
Long Island Custom Cabinets build glass-front display cases, wall systems, gondola-style units, and point-of-sale counters sized to your floor plan and merchandise. Tempered glass shelving, integrated LED strip lighting, locking sliding doors, and adjustable shelf pins are common specifications.
For jewelry, electronics, and other high-value goods, we install keyed cam locks or push-button locks and can add security glazing.
Cash wrap counters are built with:
- Transaction ledges at 42 inches for standing customers
- Cutouts for POS terminals, card readers, and cable management
- Under-counter storage for bags, supplies, and a lockable till drawer
- ADA-compliant lowered sections where required
Finishes range from high-pressure laminate to painted MDF to stained hardwood veneer, depending on your brand look.
Office Cabinets
Office cabinetry needs to organize paper, equipment, and people without dominating the room.
Our builders fabricate reception desks, conference room credenzas, file storage walls, break room kitchenettes, and private office built-ins. Reception desks are typically two-tier, with a raised transaction counter and a lower work surface set at 29 to 30 inches.
Common features include lateral file drawers on full-extension ball-bearing slides, grommets and raceways for power and data, printer garages with ventilated backs, and locking storage for sensitive documents.
Break room units get plumbing cutouts, laminate or quartz counters, and appliance openings sized for undercounter refrigerators, microwaves, and dishwashers.
Long Island Custom Cabinets coordinate installation around existing electrical and network drops so your IT contractor isn't chasing wires after the fact.
School Cabinets
School casework is specified for a 20-year service life and heavy student use.
Long Island Custom Cabinets build classroom teacher wall units, cubby and coat storage, art room cabinets with paper storage and drying racks, science lab casework with chemical-resistant tops, and music room instrument lockers.
Construction is typically 3/4-inch plywood or industrial-grade particleboard with high-pressure laminate faces and heavy-duty 5-knuckle institutional hinges. Our builders use protective edge banding on all exposed edges and reinforce shelf spans to prevent sagging under textbook loads.
Safety details matter in school settings:
- Anti-tip anchoring to wall studs or blocking
- Rounded or eased corners at student height
- Finger-pinch guards at door and drawer gaps
- Low-VOC adhesives and finishes
Cubby and locker configurations can be built to your enrollment numbers and grade-level dimensions.
Specialty Custom Cabinet Services
Beyond building new cabinetry, Long Island Custom Cabinets restores existing woodwork, replaces failing doors and hinges, installs pull-out storage and under-cabinet lighting, and adapts cabinets for height, mobility, and material preferences. Each service can stand alone or be combined during a larger kitchen or bathroom project.
Solid wood boxes built decades ago often outlast their finish. When the frames and joints are sound, restoration costs considerably less than replacement and keeps the original cabinetry in place.
Our process starts with an inspection of the cabinet, hinges, and drawer boxes. We then strip the old finish, repair loose joints and veneer, sand to bare wood, and apply new stain or clear coat.
Common restoration work includes:
- Re-gluing and clamping loose face frames
- Patching water damage under sinks
- Replacing worn drawer bottoms and glides
- Color-matching repairs on damaged panels
- Applying conversion varnish or catalyzed lacquer for durability
Oak, cherry, and maple respond particularly well to refinishing. Thermofoil and particleboard cabinets usually do not, and we will say so during the estimate.
Refacing keeps your existing cabinet boxes and replaces everything you see. We apply new veneer or laminate to the face frames and exposed ends, then install new doors, drawer fronts, and hardware.
It is a practical option when your layout works but the doors look dated. Most refacing projects finish in three to five days rather than several weeks.
Refacing involves replacing doors, drawer fronts, and veneer skins along with new hardware, and typically takes 3–5 days. Painting works on the existing doors and frames, either in place or sprayed off-site, and usually runs 4–7 days. Staining changes the wood tone on doors and frames after stripping, and generally takes longer — around 5–10 days.
For painting, we prefer spraying doors and drawer fronts in a controlled environment. Brush marks and dust nibs are far harder to avoid when everything is coated on-site.
Staining requires bare wood, so previously painted cabinets need full stripping first. We test stain samples on a hidden panel before committing to a color.
Doors take more abuse than any other cabinet component. Hinges loosen, panels split along the grain, and finishes wear thin around the handle area.
We repair what can be repaired: tightening or relocating hinge screws, gluing separated stiles and rails, and flattening warped doors when the warp is minor.
When replacement makes more sense, we match the existing door style, wood species, and finish. If the original profile is discontinued, we can reproduce it in our shop or recommend the closest available option.
We also handle full-door replacement across a kitchen while keeping the boxes:
- Raised panel, recessed panel, slab, and shaker profiles
- Glass, mullion, and open-frame doors
- Inset and full-overlay configurations
- Soft-close hinge conversion during installation
Hardware determines how cabinets feel every day. Worn glides that stick and hinges that sag are among the most frequent complaints we hear.
We install and service:
- Undermount soft-close glides — full-extension, typically rated 75 to 100 pounds
- European concealed hinges — six-way adjustable for consistent door alignment
- Knobs and pulls — drilled with a jig for uniform spacing across runs
- Latches, catches, and stops — including magnetic and push-to-open options
Retrofitting soft-close mechanisms onto older cabinets is often possible. Face-frame construction and inset doors sometimes require specific hinge cups or mounting plates, which we confirm by measuring before ordering.
Hardware placement matters as much as the hardware itself. We drill pilot holes on a template so pulls line up across long banks of drawers.
Interior fittings convert deep, hard-to-reach cabinets into usable storage. Most can be added to cabinets you already own.
Pull-out shelves work best in base cabinets, where full-extension glides let you reach all the way to the back. For blind corners, we install lazy Susans or corner units with kidney-shaped or full-round trays. Vertical tray dividers go above ovens or in narrow cabinets, sized to hold sheet pans and cutting boards. Drawer inserts, made from wood or acrylic and cut to fit, are used in utensil and cutlery drawers. Pull-out waste bins are placed near the sink or prep zone, available as single or dual bins with soft-close mechanisms. And spice pull-outs make use of otherwise wasted space in 6" or 9" fillers.
We measure interior openings rather than exterior widths, since face frames reduce usable space by an inch or more per side
Under-cabinet lighting improves visibility at the countertop, where wall cabinets cast shadows. We install LED strip and puck systems, along with in-cabinet and toe-kick lighting.
Typical specifications:
- Color temperature: 2700K for warm tone, 3000K–3500K for a neutral look
- CRI: 90 or higher so food and finishes appear accurate
- Control: dimmer switch, in-line switch, or motion sensor at door openings
Wiring runs are concealed inside light rails, behind valances, or through the back of the cabinet. Hardwired systems require a licensed electrician, which we coordinate as part of the project.
Plug-in and battery-powered options work for retrofits where running new circuits is impractical.
Existing cabinetry rarely fits a new appliance or a changed layout without adjustment. We modify boxes rather than replace entire runs when the modification is structurally sound.
Frequent requests include:
- Cutting down base cabinets for a lower prep counter
- Widening an opening for a 36-inch range
- Building filler panels and end panels for a finished look
- Adding crown molding, light rails, or furniture toe kicks
- Converting a bank of shelves into drawers
- Extending wall cabinets to the ceiling with stacked units
We also build single pieces to fill gaps: appliance garages, wine storage, banquette seating, and desk sections that match your existing door style and finish.
Material choice affects cost, appearance, and how the cabinet holds up in a specific room. We work in hardwoods, engineered panels, and mixed-material constructions.
Maple has a tight, even grain and takes paint well, making it well suited for painted kitchens. Cherry darkens with light exposure over time, which suits stained, traditional designs. White oak has a pronounced grain and is often rift-cut for straight, consistent lines, making it a good fit for contemporary and transitional styles. Walnut brings a dark, natural color and works well for accent islands and furniture-style pieces. Plywood boxes resist moisture better than particleboard, making them the better choice for sink bases and bathrooms. Thermofoil and laminate offer a seamless surface at a lower cost, making them practical for laundry and utility spaces.
Design details we execute include inset doors with beaded frames, mitered doors, integrated appliance panels, glass fronts with interior lighting, and mixed finishes between perimeter and island
Bathroom vanities receive plywood construction and moisture-resistant finishes as standard, given humidity levels in those rooms.
Accessible cabinetry follows measurable guidelines. We build to reach ranges that work for seated users and for anyone with limited shoulder mobility.
Common accessible features:
- Counter sections at 30"–34" height with open knee space
- Wall cabinets lowered to a 15"–44" reach zone
- Pull-down shelving units in upper cabinets
- D-shaped and loop pulls that require no pinching grip
- Full-extension drawers in place of fixed base shelves
- Toe kicks recessed to accommodate wheelchair footrests
On the materials side, we can specify formaldehyde-free plywood, low-VOC waterborne finishes, and FSC-certified lumber. Refinishing and refacing existing boxes also keep usable cabinetry out of the waste stream, which is often the lowest-impact option available.

The Best Cabinetry Materials in 2026
Solid Wood
Solid wood is the traditional choice for custom cabinets, prized for its unmatched strength and timeless look. Available in species like oak, maple, and cherry, it can be stained or painted to fit a wide range of styles. Its durability makes it a long-term investment that adds value to any home.
Plywood
Plywood is a popular cabinet material for its strength, stability, and resistance to warping. Made from multiple layers of wood veneer, it has a sturdy core that holds screws well. This makes it ideal for cabinet boxes and shelving, where structural integrity matters.
Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF)
MDF is an engineered wood product known for its smooth, uniform surface. It's commonly used in painted cabinets since it has no natural grain, giving a flawless finish. It's also less prone to cracking or warping, making it a practical choice for modern designs.
Particleboard
Particleboard is a cost-effective material made from compressed wood chips and resin. While not as durable as plywood or solid wood, it offers an affordable option for custom cabinets when budget is the main concern. It's often paired with laminates or veneers to boost both appearance and durability.
Laminate
Laminate cabinets are made by bonding decorative layers to a core material such as MDF or particleboard. They're available in a wide variety of colors, patterns, and finishes, making them well suited to modern or contemporary styles. Laminate is also stain-resistant and easy to clean, offering both style and convenience.
Wood Veneer
Wood veneer cabinets use thin slices of real wood applied over a stable base like plywood or MDF. This lets homeowners enjoy the beauty of natural wood at a more affordable price. Veneers also reduce waste, making them an eco-friendly alternative to solid wood cabinetry.
Planning & Timeline of Custom Cabinet Installation
How Long Do Custom Cabinets Take?
A typical kitchen takes 8 to 12 weeks from signed contract to installed cabinets. Bathroom vanities, closets, and single wall units usually finish in 4 to 6 weeks.
Here is how that time is generally distributed:
The design consultation and drawings phase typically takes 1–2 weeks. Final measurement and approval follow, usually taking 3–5 days. Fabrication in the shop is the longest stretch, running 4–8 weeks, followed by finishing and curing at 1–2 weeks. Installation wraps up the process, typically taking 2–5 days.
Painted and glazed finishes add time because each coat needs to cure before the next is applied. Semi-custom lines from national manufacturers often ship faster, generally 4 to 7 weeks, since door styles and sizes come from a set catalog.
Custom Cabinet Installation Timeline
Installation for a full kitchen usually takes two to five working days, depending on the number of cabinets and whether crown molding, panels, and trim are involved.
Day one covers demolition of existing cabinets, if that hasn't already been handled, plus checking walls and floors for level. Our builders shim and set base cabinets first, then wall cabinets, then tall units and pantries.
Doors, drawer fronts, and hardware go on after the boxes are secured. Toe kicks, light rails, filler strips, and molding follow.
Countertop templating happens once base cabinets are locked in place. Stone fabricators typically need 7 to 14 days after templating, so sinks, faucets, and appliances get connected in a return visit.
Cabinet Design Process
Design starts with a conversation about how you use the room: where you cook, what you store, how many people work in the space at once.
Long Island Custom Cabinets process moves through four stages:
- Consultation — We review your goals, budget range, and any inspiration photos or floor plans you've collected.
- Preliminary drawings — You receive elevations and a plan view showing cabinet placement, sizes, and appliance clearances.
- Selections — Door style, wood species, finish color, glaze, hardware, and interior accessories are chosen and documented.
- Final approval — Drawings are revised until they match your selections, then signed off before anything is cut.
Nothing enters the shop schedule until you approve the final drawings. Changes after that point affect both cost and delivery date.
Measuring Your Space For Cabinets
Our team takes two rounds of measurements. Preliminary numbers guide the initial design; final field measurements happen after demolition, when framing and subfloor are exposed.
What we record:
- Wall-to-wall dimensions at floor, counter, and ceiling height
- Ceiling height at multiple points, since older Long Island homes often vary by an inch or more
- Window and door locations, including casing width and sill height
- Plumbing stub-outs, gas lines, electrical outlets, and HVAC returns
- Soffit depth and any bulkheads concealing ductwork
Out-of-square walls are common in homes built before 1970. We build scribe allowances into end panels and filler strips so cabinets sit tight against uneven surfaces without visible gaps.
Cabinet Layout And Planning
Layout decisions determine how the kitchen functions daily, so we work through them before finalizing sizes.
Key clearances we plan around:
- 36 to 48 inches of walkway between opposing counters and islands
- 15 inches of landing space beside the refrigerator and cooktop
- 24 inches minimum between the sink and dishwasher opening
- 18 inches of standard backsplash height between counter and wall cabinets
We also map storage by zone: prep near the sink, cooking near the range, daily dishes near the dishwasher.
Interior accessories get specified at this stage, not later. Pull-out trash units, spice racks, tray dividers, deep drawer inserts, and corner solutions all affect cabinet box construction and must be planned into the drawings.
Custom Cabinets Cost & Budget
Custom Cabinet Pricing Guide
We price by linear foot, measured along the wall where cabinetry will be installed. Base cabinets and wall cabinets are counted separately, and tall units like pantries and refrigerator surrounds carry their own pricing.
Here is a general range for our work:
Component Typical Cost (Installed)
Base cabinets $350 – $700 per linear foot
Wall cabinets $250 – $500 per linear foot
Tall/pantry units $900 – $2,000 each
Kitchen island $3,000 – $10,000
Bathroom vanity $1,500 – $5,000
Species matters. Paint-grade maple and birch sit at the lower end, while white oak, walnut, and rift-cut veneers push toward the top.
Door construction also shifts the number. A flat-panel Shaker door costs less to build than an inset door with a beaded face frame, which requires tighter tolerances and more labor.
How Much Do Custom Cabinets Cost?
For a standard 10x12 Long Island kitchen with roughly 25 linear feet of cabinetry, most of our clients spend $18,000 to $28,000.
Smaller galley kitchens in Nassau County apartments and townhomes often come in between $10,000 and $15,000. Larger projects — 40+ linear feet with an island, a butler's pantry, and integrated appliance panels — commonly reach $35,000 to $60,000.
Other rooms cost considerably less:
- Bathroom vanity: $1,500 – $5,000
- Mudroom bench and lockers: $3,000 – $8,000
- Home office built-ins: $4,000 – $12,000
- Living room wall unit: $5,000 – $15,000
- Reach-in closet system: $1,200 – $3,500
Installation is included in every figure we quote. Countertops, backsplash, plumbing, and electrical are separate trades and priced independently.
Residential and Commercial Custom Cabinet FAQs
We build and supply cabinetry for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, mudrooms, home offices, and closets. Kitchen work covers base cabinets, wall cabinets, tall pantry units, islands, and peninsula layouts.
Beyond the kitchen, we produce vanities, linen towers, built-in bookcases, wall units, window seats, and entertainment centers.
Door styles include Shaker, raised panel, flat slab, beaded inset, and full inset construction. Finishes range from painted and stained wood to glazes and specialty laminates.
Cabinetry pricing depends on box construction, door style, finish, and the number of cabinets your layout requires. Most Long Island kitchen cabinet projects fall between $12,000 and $45,000 for cabinets alone.
Stock and semi-custom lines sit at the lower end of that range. Fully custom cabinetry with inset doors, specialty finishes, or non-standard dimensions costs more.
Countertops, appliances, flooring, and demolition are priced separately. We provide a line-item quote so you can see exactly what each element contributes to the total.
