The kitchen cabinet takes up most of the space in a kitchen; hence, it is only logical that the cabinets are chosen wisely and fits the purpose. There are many choices in the market, which all depend on the door material, color, other materials, frames, style and of course the cost. Those on a budget should consider having their existing cabinets refaced, which is less expensive than remodeling, and also will take less time. The final finish may even surprise you.

There are 4 types of cabinet classifications for you to consider before deciding on the perfect one for your kitchen. They are stock cabinets, custom units, semi-custom units and frame or frameless units. However, keep in mind that the final cost will depend on the manufacturer or brand, the size or layout, interior accessories and the type of wood and finish that you prefer.


Stock cabinets are the lowest in price because of the limited choices, colors and styles. Stock cabinets come in 3 grades. The standard grade is made up of particleboard sides and a 4-sided drawer box that is stapled and glued. The midrange cabinets have better drawer boxes, and usually have thicker shelves in the wall cabinets. The higher-grade cabinet has the features of the previous grades in addition to plywood sides, concealed hinges and a better quality finish. They all come with standard accessories.

Semi custom cabinets have moderate prices and a wider variety of styles, colors and finishes. The cabinets also have various heights and depths, and are usually made of wood with plywood sides. They are made with two sanding processes to give it a good furniture finish. Semi-custom cabinets are made to order, so delivery time could take between 4 to 6 weeks.

Custom-made cabinets are the best, since they have unlimited styles, colors and design possibilities. Of course, they are also more expensive. You can choose any modification, with high-quality finish and wood, and strong structure and cabinets. Delivery time takes between 6 to 12 weeks. Framed cabinets refer to the front of the cabinet box, where the door is attached, and frameless cabinets are those with no front frame, which means the door is attached directly to the box.
