Matching cabinetry: 21 years later

Old on left, new on right

Back at the beginning of May, a customer came into the showroom @ILK with a cabinet door. Normally I tense up a bit when this type of thing happens because they’re usually looking for a match to some other manufacturers product. Not this time.

Requirements:

  • Match Doorstyle of existing.
  • Match colour of existing
  • Add 6″ cabinet to left of Range
  • Remove 29″ eating centre with drawers and add cabinetry
  • Service work: repair damaged drawer & level all doors and drawers

Result:

  • Doorstyle still manufactured 21 years later
  • Colour match done by factory, exactly
  • New 6″ Cabinet provides space for awkward items – baking sheets, spices
  • New 30″ cabinets provide new baking/cooking/storage centre
  • Service work completed

Although this is a small job, it is these types of projects that show you what your product line stands for, the character of your design team, and reputation of your company.
