A base cabinet with a door and a fixed shelf hides most of what it holds. We convert it to a bank of drawers, so everything comes out to you. Part of our storage upgrades.

In a door-and-shelf base cabinet you open the door, crouch, and dig. Drawers fix that: pull one out and you can see everything in it from above.
The pots you use most are stacked on a shelf at the back.
Bending and reaching into the lower cabinets gets harder every year.
You buy things you already own because you can't see what's in there.
You like your cabinets, you just want the lower ones to work like drawers.
Solid maple, dovetailed corners, full-extension soft-close slides.
The same drawer boxes we build for our drawer box work, plus new fronts so the cabinet reads as drawers from the outside.
Dovetailed, with plywood bottoms set in grooves. Built in Massachusetts, clear-coated or unfinished.
Undermount, soft-close slides, so the drawer opens all the way and closes quietly.
Slab (one piece) or 5-piece (frame with a recessed panel), made to order by local Western Massachusetts shops in any paint color or stain.
Raymond matches the new fronts to your existing finish. See color matching for how close we get.
Every opening is measured in your home, so the drawer banks are built to fit what you have.
Add cutlery trays, spice inserts, knife blocks or pan dividers from our organizers to finish the job.
What changes when a base cabinet becomes a drawer bank.
Raymond handles it himself, from the first visit through the final inspection. If you're also changing doors, ask about doing it all in one project with new doors and drawer fronts.
Usually there are one or two cabinets you wish were drawers. Start with those.
Raymond measures each opening, checks the cabinet box, and takes a look at your finish for the new fronts.
A written proposal with the scope and options. Drawers are priced per drawer.
A $500 deposit generally gets you on the schedule and the materials ordered. The usual lead time is 3–6 months.
The drawers and fronts are installed, aligned and tested with you before we go.
Yes. Door-and-shelf base cabinets can be converted to drawer banks. Raymond measures the opening and confirms what will fit. The cabinet needs new fronts, so the drawers look right with the rest of the kitchen, and the cabinet box itself has to be sound.
A cabinet that had one door becomes a bank of drawers, so the front is a different shape than the door it replaces. New fronts are made to order by local Western Massachusetts shops and finished to match your existing cabinets.
Solid maple, dovetailed drawer boxes with plywood bottoms set in grooves, on full-extension, undermount, soft-close slides. They are built in Massachusetts and can be clear-coated or left unfinished.
Yes. Many people convert only the cabinets they reach into most, such as the pots-and-pans cabinet. Drawers are priced per drawer, and every job starts with a free estimate.
As with most cabinet work that needs new fronts or drawers, the usual lead time is 3 to 6 months from accepting the quote. Raymond confirms the actual timing for your job.
Raymond will look at your kitchen and tell you which ones will change your day, and which won't.
