Expert Cabinet Consultation

Our consultation process is thorough and straightforward. We assess your space, discuss your storage needs, and recommend the right cabinet configurations.

We use only solid wood and plywood construction — no particleboard fillers or low-grade substitutes. All cabinetry features soft-close hinges and top-tier drawer systems for reliable, long-lasting performance.

Our skilled installation team ensures a precise fit that's both functional and clean-looking. With 20 years of experience, we know how to handle the details that matter.

Types of Custom Cabinets Available

Custom Cabinets of Dunwoody builds every cabinet from scratch using solid wood and plywood, with soft-close hinges and premium drawer systems included across all cabinet types.

Kitchen Cabinetry Styles

Kitchen cabinetry is one of the most impactful investments in any home. We build every kitchen cabinet to your exact dimensions, never using stock boxes or pre-made units.

Popular styles we craft include:

• Shaker – clean lines, recessed panel doors
• Raised Panel – traditional, formal appearance
• Slab/Flat Front – modern, minimalist profile
• Inset – doors sit flush inside the frame for a furniture-grade look

Each style can be paired with custom finishes, paint colors, and stains. Our 3D design previews let you see your kitchen cabinetry before a single board is cut.

Bathroom and Vanity Cabinets

Bathroom custom cabinets require precise sizing, especially in smaller or awkwardly shaped spaces. We design and build vanity cabinets that fit the actual dimensions of your bathroom rather than forcing standard sizes into non-standard spaces.

All bathroom cabinetry uses moisture-resistant materials and includes soft-close hinges as standard.

Custom Storage Solutions

Beyond kitchens and bathrooms, custom cabinetry solves storage problems throughout the home. We build solutions tailored to how you actually use each room.

Common custom storage projects include:

• Built-in closets with adjustable shelving, drawers, and hanging sections
• Mudroom lockers with cubbies, hooks, and bench seating
• Home office cabinetry with filing drawers and cord management
• Laundry room cabinets designed around your specific washer and dryer setup
• Pantry systems with pull-out shelves and dedicated zones

Every storage unit is built to your space. Our in-house design and build team coordinates each project from the first measurement to final installation, keeping timelines tight and communication clear.

Entertainment Centers and Specialty Cabinets

Entertainment centers and specialty cabinets are areas where fully custom craftsmanship makes the biggest difference. Stock units rarely account for your TV size, component layout, or room proportions.

We build:

• Wall units with integrated TV mounting, shelving, and media storage
• Built-in bookshelves with cabinet bases
• Bar cabinets with glass racks, wine storage, and under-counter refrigerator cutouts
• Display cabinets with glass doors and interior lighting

Specialty custom cabinets also include pieces like window seats with storage, built-in desks, and room dividers. Each is built from scratch using the same premium materials and hardware standards we apply to every project.

Materials and Craftsmanship

Every cabinet we build uses solid wood and plywood construction — no stock boxes, no shortcuts. The materials, techniques, and hardware we select are chosen specifically for long-term performance and precise fit.

Premium Wood Options

We build our custom cabinetry exclusively from solid wood and high-grade plywood. These materials resist warping, hold fasteners securely, and support the structural demands of daily use far better than particleboard or MDF-based alternatives.

Common wood species we work with include:

• Maple – tight grain, smooth finish, works well with paint or stain
• Cherry – warm tone, darkens naturally over time
• White Oak – open grain, popular for contemporary and transitional styles
• Walnut – rich, dark color suited to modern and upscale designs
• Alder – softer wood, cost-effective option with a clean appearance

Every piece is selected for consistency in grain and color before it reaches our shop floor.

Durable Construction Techniques

Our cabinetry is built from scratch, sized to your exact space — not adapted from a pre-made box. This matters because custom-built frames eliminate the filler strips and awkward gaps that come with stock cabinetry.

We use dovetail joinery on drawer boxes and mortise-and-tenon or dado joints on cabinet frames. These joints distribute load and resist racking over years of use. Plywood cabinet boxes are assembled with glue and mechanical fasteners for added rigidity.

Our in-house design and build team works together throughout the process, which reduces error and keeps construction details consistent from one cabinet to the next.

Finishes and Hardware Selection

Finish choices directly affect both the appearance and durability of your cabinetry.

Hardware is not an afterthought in our process. We install soft-close hinges and top-tier drawer systems on every cabinet as standard. These components reduce wear on the cabinet box over time and provide consistent, quiet operation throughout daily use.

Enhancing Functionality and Home Value

Custom cabinets built from scratch deliver measurable improvements to how a kitchen or living space works day-to-day, and they have a documented effect on resale value when it comes time to sell.

Organization and Space Optimization

Because we build every cabinet from scratch to fit your exact space, we can design storage that stock cabinetry simply cannot replicate. Pull-out shelves, deep drawer stacks, built-in dividers, and vertical tray storage are all options that eliminate wasted space.

Our in-house design team uses 3D previews to map out your layout before anything is built. This means every inch is accounted for before production begins.

Common custom storage features we incorporate:

• Pull-out trash and recycling bins
• Spice drawer inserts
• Built-in charging stations
• Corner solutions like lazy Susans or blind corner pull-outs
• Tall pantry cabinets with adjustable shelving

Safety Features and Technology

Modern cabinetry should work safely and smoothly. We install soft-close hinges and top-tier drawer systems as standard, reducing the risk of pinched fingers and minimizing wear over time.

For households with children, we can integrate push-to-open mechanisms that eliminate protruding handles on lower cabinets. Locking drawers for medication or sharp tools are another practical option.

Our hardware choices are deliberate. Soft-close drawer systems reduce cabinet wear significantly compared to standard hardware, contributing to a longer product lifespan.

Resale Value Improvements

Kitchen renovations consistently rank among the highest-ROI home improvements. Minor kitchen remodels recover an average of 74% of costs, and updated cabinetry is a priority for approximately 70% of homebuyers.

Custom cabinetry built with solid wood and plywood—not particleboard—holds up better over time and is more appealing to buyers who can identify quality materials on inspection.

Our workmanship warranty also transfers value to the next owner, giving buyers added confidence. Cabinetry that is built precisely, installed cleanly, and backed by a warranty presents a noticeably stronger selling point than stock alternatives.

Granite Countertops and Integration

Granite countertops pair well with custom cabinetry, and choosing the right material and edge profile directly affects how your kitchen or bathroom looks and functions.

Granite vs. Other Countertop Materials

Granite is a natural stone, which means every slab has a unique pattern. It's heat-resistant, hard, and durable under daily kitchen use. Properly sealed granite resists staining well.

Quartz offers a more uniform look and requires no sealing, but lacks the natural variation of granite. Marble is softer and more prone to etching from acidic substances. For most kitchens, granite provides a strong balance of performance and appearance.

We integrate granite countertops directly into our cabinet designs, accounting for overhang, support, and material thickness from the start of the planning process.

Edge Profiles and Aesthetic Choices

The edge profile on a granite countertop affects both the look and feel of your space. Common options include:

• Eased edge – clean, straight, modern
• Beveled edge – subtle angled cut, transitional style
• Bullnose – fully rounded, softer look
• Ogee – curved S-shape, traditional or ornate
• Waterfall – slab extends vertically down cabinet sides

A flat-front cabinet pairs well with an eased or beveled edge. Raised-panel or more traditional cabinet styles suit an ogee or bullnose profile.

We factor edge selection into our 3D design previews so you can see exactly how the countertop integrates with your cabinetry before anything is built.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dunwoody homeowners ask about cabinet types for different rooms, materials that hold up in Georgia's humidity, cost factors, and how the design-to-installation process works from start to finish.

What types of custom cabinets work best for kitchens, bathrooms, mudrooms, and home offices in Dunwoody homes?

In kitchens, full-height cabinetry with pull-out shelves, deep drawers, and built-in pantry systems maximize both storage and workflow. Face-frame and frameless cabinet styles are both strong options depending on your aesthetic preference.

For bathrooms, floating vanity cabinets and built-in linen towers are practical choices that make smaller spaces feel more functional. Moisture-resistant finishes and plywood box construction are important here.

Mudrooms benefit from tall locker-style cabinets with cubbies, bench seating with storage underneath, and dedicated zones for shoes, bags, and coats. Home offices work well with floor-to-ceiling built-ins, file drawer systems, and open shelving integrated with closed cabinet storage.

How does the custom cabinet design-and-build process typically work from initial consultation to final installation?

We start with an in-home or showroom consultation to measure your space and understand your design goals. From there, our in-house design and build team develops your project under one roof, keeping communication consistent throughout.

We provide 3D design previews so you can see realistic renderings of your cabinets before anything is built. You'll know exactly what to expect in terms of layout, finish, and hardware before we cut a single piece of material.

Once the design is approved, fabrication begins. Our dedicated project management means you have a single point of contact guiding you from that first meeting through final installation.

Which cabinet materials and construction methods offer the best durability in Georgia's humid climate?

Georgia's humidity—averaging around 70% relative humidity in the Atlanta metro—puts real stress on cabinet materials over time. Solid wood and plywood construction outperform MDF and particleboard in these conditions because they resist warping and moisture absorption more effectively.

We use plywood boxes as a standard because plywood holds screws more securely and handles humidity cycles better than composite boards. Solid wood doors and drawer fronts, when properly finished, also hold up well in Dunwoody's climate.

Dovetail drawer construction and mortise-and-tenon joinery add structural strength that matters in high-use areas like kitchens and bathrooms. The finish coat on your cabinets also acts as a moisture barrier, so choosing a quality catalyzed finish over a basic paint adds meaningful long-term protection.

What is the difference between custom, semi-custom, and stock cabinetry, and when should each be considered?

Stock cabinets come in fixed sizes and limited configurations, typically available at big-box retailers. They're the least expensive option but often leave gaps in odd-shaped spaces and offer little flexibility in materials or finish.

Semi-custom cabinets offer more size options and finish choices than stock, but they still rely on pre-manufactured boxes and set design parameters. Lead times are usually two to six weeks.

Every cabinet we build is constructed from scratch to fit your exact space and design preferences—we never use pre-made boxes. This matters most in kitchens with angled walls, bathrooms with unusual layouts, or any room where a precise fit directly affects how useful the space is.

What finish and color trends are most popular for cabinetry in Dunwoody and the greater Atlanta metro area right now?

Two-tone kitchens remain a strong trend across the Atlanta metro, with a darker lower cabinet paired with a lighter upper cabinet or island in a contrasting color. White and off-white uppers with navy, forest green, or deep charcoal lowers are commonly requested combinations in 2026.

Warm wood tones—particularly white oak and walnut—have replaced the cool gray palette that dominated the previous decade. These natural wood finishes work well in Dunwoody's mix of traditional and transitional home styles.

Matte and satin sheens are preferred over high-gloss finishes right now, as they show fewer fingerprints and pair better with current hardware trends. Brushed brass and matte black pulls and knobs are the most requested hardware finishes we see in this area.

How much do custom cabinets typically cost in the Dunwoody area, and which features have the biggest impact on budget?

Custom kitchen cabinetry in the Dunwoody and greater Atlanta area generally ranges from $500 to $1,500 per linear foot depending on materials, complexity, and features. A mid-size kitchen with 20 linear feet of cabinetry could range from $10,000 to $30,000 or more for fully custom work.

The biggest cost drivers are wood species, finish type, interior organization features, and hardware selections. Soft-close hinges and high-end drawer systems add cost upfront but reduce wear and replacement expenses over time.

We provide clear, itemized quotes so you understand exactly where every dollar goes. There are no vague line items or surprise charges after the project is underway.
