Dovetailed corners
Pins and tails interlock at every corner of the box, so the joint holds against the pull a drawer takes each time it opens.

Cabinet doors, drawer fronts and drawer boxes
Whole-kitchen sets of doors, drawer fronts and drawer boxes, crafted in-house for lasting durability, with solid hardwood construction and heavy-duty ½-inch panels throughout.
What we build
What we make
Everything here is made in-house in solid hardwood for kitchens in Springfield and the 417, as a full set for a new kitchen or a reface of the cabinets you’ve already got.
- Shaker doors Square frames around a flat panel, painted or stained. The deep green kitchen below shows them painted.
- Raised and flat panel doors Mitered or square frames around a raised or flat panel, with heavy-duty ½-inch panels.
- Glass-panel doors Frames made to take glass, for display cabinets, uppers and built-ins.
- Drawer fronts Made alongside the doors, so fronts and doors match in style, wood and finish.
- Dovetailed drawer boxes Solid-wood boxes joined with dovetails at the corners, the joint you can see in the photos on this page.
- Cabinet refacing New doors and drawer fronts on cabinet boxes that are still sound. Reface or replace?

Refacing
Love your kitchen again without the teardown.
Refacing keeps the cabinet boxes you have and replaces what you see.
| RefacingKeep the boxes | New custom cabinetsStart over | |
|---|---|---|
| What’s new | Doors and drawer fronts, made to fit the boxes you have | Everything: boxes, doors, drawer fronts and drawer boxes |
| What stays | The cabinet boxes and the layout | Nothing has to, so the layout can change |
| Makes sense when | The boxes are sound and the layout works for you | The boxes are worn, damaged or in the wrong places |
| Our part | We make the new doors and drawer fronts | We design, build and install the kitchen. See custom cabinets |
Before you reface, check
- The boxes are solid. Refacing keeps them, so look for water damage under the sink, sagging shelves and loose face frames first.
- The layout works. New doors change how the kitchen looks, not where things are.
- You’ve counted the pieces. How many doors and drawer fronts, and their rough sizes, is the best way to start the conversation.
Not sure the boxes are worth keeping? Send a few photos, including the inside of the sink base, and we’ll tell you what we see.
Cost
What affects the price
Doors are usually estimated per door, and refacing per linear foot of cabinets.
The main cost drivers
- Door style. Slab and shaker doors take less work than raised panel or glass-panel doors.
- Wood and finish. Paint grade or stain grade, and the species you pick. The wood guide compares them.
- Count and sizes. How many doors, drawer fronts and drawer boxes, and their sizes.
- Refacing scope. How much of the kitchen changes beyond the doors and drawer fronts.
National ranges, not a Cambium quote

Questions
Questions about doors and drawers
Anything else, call or text.
Is it cheaper to reface or replace cabinets?
Refacing usually costs less. National estimates put refacing at $150 to $450 per linear foot, or $5,000 to $13,000 for an average kitchen, against $500 to $1,200 per linear foot for new custom cabinets (HomeGuide, 2026). Refacing keeps the existing boxes, so they need to be sound.
How thick are your door panels?
Heavy-duty ½-inch panels in solid hardwood frames. From doors to drawer boxes, everything we make has solid hardwood construction and ½-inch panels.
Why dovetailed drawer boxes?
Dovetails interlock, so the corner resists the pull a drawer takes every time it opens. You can see them on the drawer boxes in the photos above.
Can you make doors to fit my existing cabinets?
Yes, that’s what refacing is: new doors and drawer fronts made to fit the cabinet boxes you already have. Send photos and rough sizes, and we’ll talk through styles and wood.
What door styles do you make?
The photos on this page show shaker doors, mitered frames with flat and raised panels, and glass-panel doors. If you have another style in mind, send a photo of it.
