"The new cabinets at an affordable price make my entire house look new! I was extremely impressed with the professionalism and how quickly I had a brand new kitchen. Neal and Ryan were friendly and put up with my 3 nosy dogs that kept getting in the way! I would recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade your kitchen or or other cabinets. You will be happy that you hired them!"

"Fantastic!  Classy Closets is everything you want in a Closet Company.  I called in the morning, and the designer was with my wife that afternoon.  Her name is Tui and she is very, very good.  Showed us exactly how to maximize our closet design.   She even drew the designs (other companies use software) on paper like an artist.  The next day she drove back to our house to reconfirm what we wanted and sign the contract.  We picked out the date and time with no problem for installation.  The carpenter went to work and in one day did a fantastic job. Even made the trapezoid reach in closet hall way work! We got a real nice maple wood to match our hardwood floors.  Finally, one week after the job Tui called back to make sure all was good. 

I initially to two other closet companies and Classy Closet with Tui showed exactly how to get it done right!"

Cabinet Making FAQs, answered by experts

Kitchen cabinets can hold a whopping 500 pounds, but that is only possible if you attach them correctly. They must be anchored securely with long screws driven straight into the wall studs for solid support. Depending on your cabinets and the installer, some upper cabinets use specialized hanging systems or brackets for extra reinforcement, ensuring they stay put no matter how full they get.

While most kitchen island installations do not require a permit, some situations do. Any major kitchen renovation will require one, and depending on your municipality, you might also need one if you install new plumbing or electrical work. 

Your kitchen island installation pro will be able to determine if you need a permit for your job, which can run you between $460 and $2,900, depending on the permits required.

There are some tips when hiring a cabinet installer that’ll help prepare you to create a new space. When installing new cabinets, keep the following in mind:

  • Hire the same cabinet installer professional to measure, design, and install the cabinets, as opposed to jumping between companies. 

  • Discuss what types of cabinets the installer offers, including stock, semi-custom, and custom, to give yourself options.

  • Discuss financing options with your installer, as this project can be expensive depending on your chosen cabinets.

  • Discuss your cabinet installer’s prior experience, including asking for photos of previous projects. 

To install cabinet doors evenly, it’s important to make sure that all drilled holes and hardware are in their right places and aligned properly. You can achieve the ideal placement by using a level, straightedge, or other measuring tool. In the event that your cabinet doors are not installed evenly, most hinges allow you to adjust them so that your doors can be perfectly lined up. 

Building a bathroom cabinet can be cheaper than buying one, especially if you have woodworking skills and tools. The cost of materials can be less than that of a premade cabinet. However, buying a ready-made cabinet might be more convenient and cost-effective if you factor in your time and effort. Custom-built cabinets offer more flexibility in design and materials, while pre-made options provide ease and faster installation.
