Building a custom kitchen for myself. My Dad, trying not to get bored in retirement has been bugging me to give him some work. He has agreed to build cabinet doors and drawer fronts out of maple or hickory. I am looking for a source for cabinet & drawer base bodies. In some cases, I am not even looking for the shelves.. just the body. My Dad has been using Craftmade (he recently did his own kitchen) and I know I can get Millpride from Home Despot.
Been checking around the various manufacturer websites, but they don't have much into on just getting the cabinet bodies. I am specifically looking for:
- Opinions on manufacturers like Kraftmade and Mill's Pride. Or any other manufacturers you can recommend (or let me know I should avoid).
- Any sources for dealers that sell online (busy guy.. love it when stuff comes to me by common carrier or UPS).
- SOurces for kitchen cabinet catalogs in PDF format. I have designed a bunch of kitchens (I do renovations/landlording on the side).
I just need the cabinet fronts to look good. I am trying to control costs by eliminating solid wood interiors. The interiors I am just looking for durability and surfaces that are easy to clean (i.e. synthetic).
Thanks in advance
Matt
