Planning a cabinet project doesn’t have to be complicated. Send us a basic room sketch, key measurements and a few photographs, and our team will help identify the right cabinets and prepare project pricing.

Your plans don’t need to be perfect. Follow the steps below and submit whatever information you currently have.

What to Include

Overall length of each wall

Ceiling height

Door and window locations

Sink and utility locations

Appliance widths and locations

Preferred cabinet style or color, if known

Several wide-angle room photographs

Existing plans or cabinet lists, if available

A clear hand-drawn sketch is completely acceptable. We do not require professional architectural plans to begin reviewing your project.

 

1. Sketch the Room


Draw the basic shape of the room and label each wall. Your sketch does not need to be perfectly to scale—just make sure every wall is represented.

2. Measure Each Wall


Measure the complete length of each wall and record the dimensions in inches, preferably to the nearest 1/8 inch. Measure from corner to corner without subtracting for doors, windows or appliances.

 

3. Mark Doors and Windows


Starting from the nearest corner, measure to the left edge and right edge of each door or window opening. Record the opening width and note which direction each door swings.

Microwave

5. Record Ceiling Height & Obstacles


Record the ceiling height and identify soffits, vents, radiators, electrical panels, columns or other features that may affect cabinet placement.

6. Take Photographs


Take several wide-angle photographs from opposite corners of the room. Include doors, windows, appliances, plumbing and any unusual conditions that may affect the design.
