Cabinet Customization

Posted on by Justin Ehrman

Homeowners often ask us about the cabinet sizes we offer and if we customize our cabinets. Yes! We provide standard sizes and configurations; however, because we are a semi-custom cabinet manufacturer, we can customize the size and look of most cabinets. Read our blog explaining the differences between custom and semi-custom cabinetry.

We build standard sizes in 3-inch increments with widths ranging from 9 to 48 inches, and heights of 12 to 66 inches, to keep our product offering simplified. But in most cases we can modify cabinet widths, depths, and heights to fit your needs. But, there are a few exceptions, including cabinets with installed storage and organization accessories.

And, though we offer a wide variety of products, we may not have standard options in everything. That’s okay! Work with your dealer to see if we can turn your vision into an actual cabinet!

Semi-Custom Cabinets vs. Stock Cabinetry

Posted on by Justin Ehrman

You may be wondering how Showplace products differ from cabinets you can purchase from “big box” stores. Their stock cabinets may look similar from the outside, but there’s more of a difference than meets the eye.

Stock Icon

Here’s what you get from stock cabinetry purchased from a national chain store or stock cabinet company:

  • Standard-sized cabinets offered
  • Standard offering of wood species
  • Standard selection of finish colors
  • Standard selection of door styles
  • Limited or no ability to change cabinet dimensions
  • May be built-to-order, but often built ahead and sold from inventory
  • Priced most affordably due to limitations and materials used
Semi Custom Icon

Showplace produces semi-custom cabinets. Although Showplace will build custom configurations and offers custom paint colors, we do not offer limitless species or custom door styles and custom stains. Here is a list of generally accepted semi-custom cabinet attributes:

  • Standard-sized cabinets offered; virtually any dimension of these cabinets may be changed to fit the kitchen or bath design and the available space
  • Standard offering of wood species with some specialty species offered
  • Standard selection of finish colors with some specialty finish treatments offered
  • Standard selection of door styles
  • Custom sizing and configurations available within standard wood species, color, and style offerings
  • Cabinets built-to-order for individual homeowner
  • Mid-priced to reflect flexibility and broad product offerings

Showplace offers many custom features found with other cabinet makers who call themselves custom; since there are no universally accepted attributes to describe custom cabinets, we thought we’d share this list:

  • Standard sized cabinets may be available; specialty is “you draw it, we build it”
  • Standard offering of wood species, but will accommodate special requests
  • Standard finish colors offered, but will accommodate special requests for color matching and specialty finish treatments
  • Standard door styling offered, but will accommodate special requests
  • Special configurations of cabinetry are offered without restrictions on species, color and style
  • Cabinets built-to-order for individual homeowner
  • Most expensive due to limitless options
