What to Expect During the Design Process

How exciting to be designing your own cabinets and preparing their color, style and function! It’s an interesting process to be a part of! How will the design process proceed? What is the role of the designer? Let’s take a look at what to expect during this process.

At Shrock Cabinets we have several highly skilled designers on staff who are ready to work with you to create your dream cabinets. They will be happy to meet with you, listen to your desires, get an understanding of your budget and timeline, show you samples, and walk through the whole process with you.

Upon meeting with a designer, it is extremely beneficial to have in hand several ideas, and pictures that have already inspired you. Knowing what cabinet colors, finishes and functional elements you like are also helpful. At this point, our designer will recommend different styles and trim, as well as functional components.

Our Shrock Cabinet designers will need to take measurements and notes of windows, entryways, and existing appliances, closets, and other room features. These will strongly affect the design of your cabinets.

The designer will then make a sketch or digital perspective to go with the specific room’s floor plan. From this point, you can make any changes with the designer prior to your cabinet plan moving to the manufacturing process.

The professional design team at Shrock Cabinets are specially trained for, and invested in, making your cabinet choices become a beautiful reality. Each cabinet is custom made based on your desires and ideas with the helpful recommendations and skill of our designers. Let us help you create the fine custom cabinetry you’ve always dreamed of having.

Kitchen Cabinet Design Trends of 2022

Shrock Premier Cabinets: Kitchen Cabinet Design Trends of 2022

Few things have a bigger impact on the look and functionality of your kitchen than the cabinetry. When remodeling your kitchen, knowing what’s trending can help you get ideas for a look that will fit your personal tastes. Here’s a closer look at just a few of the design trends that are popular in 2022.

Open Frame Cabinets

Open frame cabinets use glass panels to display the items that are stored inside. This creates a lighter, brighter kitchen that helps the space feel larger. Alternatively, others opt to use open shelving when trying to create a more minimalist look. As part of this trend, many kitchens with open frame cabinets or open shelving also use extra deep drawers for items that won’t be displayed. Extra deep drawers make it easy to organize larger items like crockpots and Tupperware.

Two-Toned Cabinets

Two-toned cabinets bring a bold look to your kitchen. While the upper cabinets are painted white, the lower base cabinets are painted a darker, bolder color like blue or gray. This creates exciting visual contrast without becoming visually overwhelming. Using white for the upper cabinets also has the added benefit of helping the ceiling feel taller.

Copper Hardware

Copper hardware (knobs and drawer pulls) have become especially popular lately for both rustic and modern kitchen designs. Copper draws the eye and provides a more sophisticated look for your kitchen. Keep in mind that this hardware doesn’t work with every color scheme — it works best with neutral whites or darker colors like blue or green.

If you need help deciding which cabinet design trends to incorporate into your own kitchen, Shrock Cabinets can help. Our experienced craftsmen can design cabinets that fit your space and design preferences to help create your dream kitchen. Contact us today to get started.

How to Maximize Your Bathroom Storage

Mon, 05 Sep 2022 16:48:15 GMT

Shrock Premier Cabinets: How to Maximize Your Bathroom Storage

You may not think of your bathroom as a storage area. At the same time, however, there is no denying that there are plenty of bathroom items that need someplace to go. If you find yourself running out of space for towels, toiletries, and other essentials, these tips can help you maximize your storage space.

Use the Space Above the Toilet

The wall above the toilet is usually left empty. However, this large open area is the perfect space for a cabinet or shelving unit to store extra items. This space is well suited for items that don’t fit in the vanity, or that you might be using near the toilet — like extra toilet paper or feminine care products.

Organize Your Existing Storage Areas

Sometimes, you may already have ample storage space thanks to a large vanity or linen closet — it just doesn’t feel like it. Strategically arranging items with the help of bins, baskets, and even spinning turntables can go a long way in keeping everything neat and organized. Items will be easier to find, and your storage areas will be less cluttered, so you don’t feel like you’re running out of space.

Find Small Spaces

A little creative thinking can help you minimize the clutter and find extra storage space in unexpected places. A small unused corner could be the perfect place for a stackable storage bin or a slim rolling cart. An over the door organizer will let you use the space behind the door. Such storage options are ideal for smaller items.

For beautiful custom cabinetry that can help you maximize your bathroom storage, choose Shrock Cabinets. Combining old world craftsmanship and modern design principles, our dedicated craftsmen will design beautiful cabinets that perfectly match your space.

Filling your home with what you want is a hard task. Shopping around to get the right cabinets can be stressful. Here are some tips that can hopefully ease your worries about buying custom cabinets.

1. Quality, Quality, Quality

Cabinets are something worth putting your money into. Never compromise quality and craftsmanship for a cheaper option like stock cabinets.

Not only will pre-built or stock cabinets not stand up to the wear and tear that custom cabinets can, but they will also lose their appeal and look faster. There is no reason to not have custom cabinets. The quality matters so do not compromise.

2. Go With a Professional

Finding the perfect cabinets is an amazing feeling. However, make sure that you work with a trusted professional. Luckily, Shrock Premier Cabinet Division is not only a trusted name but also a reliable name. We make sure that what you want is not only what you buy, but what also shows up and gets installed in your home.

3. It Is Okay to Ask Questions

Make sure you know what is happening with your cabinets. Your home is something extremely important. It is okay to follow up and get updated on the status of your cabinets. The experts at Shrock understand this and will keep you informed and up to date on what is happening in your home.

4. Maximize Space

Cabinets can take up space in your home. It is important to keep in mind the size of your space and how much you can devote to cabinets. Try to incorporate your entire space when getting custom cabinets. Not only can this tie in the cabinets to your space but will also save some space.

Your cabinets are vital to your home. Do not go to just any cabinet maker, go to Shrock Premier Cabinet. For more information, visit www.shrockcabinets.com/services

4 Key Factors in Designing an At-Home Custom Bar

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 25 Jul 2022 12:00:05 GMT

4 Key Factors in Designing an At-Home Custom Bar

Do you enjoy entertaining guests and friends often? Do you love going barhopping but it’s getting expensive and can’t fit your budget anymore?

There’s no reason you can’t enjoy happy hour at home. You may want to consider adding a custom bar space to your crash pad. When custom designing an at home bar, there are 4 key factors that you need to decide on.

1. Bar Countertop Space – There needs to be enough space to make drinks and for your guests to enjoy their drinks. Optimally, you do not want these spaces on the same countertop. Think about a regular bar, the bartender has their own wet bar counterspace to work on, and the customers have their own to enjoy their drinks on.

2. Storage – When designing a custom bar space, you need to consider the drinks and tools that you will have and where you will be storing them. This is where custom cabinets come in. Custom cabinetry becomes very useful in this instance, as you can design them based on what you will have in them. The design of the cabinets can change based on things like the type of alcohol, tools, temperature control, and many other items.

3. Access to Plumbing and Power – It is smart to put a faucet and sink in the bar so that you may use it for dumping and ice (and the occasional glass of water). So, you want to make sure the plumbing is set up for the customized bar. Most bars have appliances, and appliances need power. Depending on where you decide to place your bar, you may or may not have power there. You want to make sure to talk to an expert who can meet your power needs.

4. Bar Space Quality – This is the most important piece: your bar space must be comfortable and fun for you and your guests! If nobody is having fun, what is the point of building it in the first place? Take into consideration things like location, furniture, features, television, etc.

By designing your vision, and understanding how to work with your space, you can create the fully customized bar you have always dreamed of – and Shrock Cabinets will be by your side every step of the way! Using high-quality materials, our premier craftsmen are dedicated to turning your visions into reality! V isit our website or contact us today to get started!

Custom Cabinets: Is the price tag worth it?

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 18 Jul 2022 12:00:00 GMT

Custom Cabinets: Is the price tag worth it?

Home remodeling can be very expensive. You could be remodeling for your personal liking because you plan to stay in this house for a long time, or you could be trying to increase the home value to sell in this booming housing market.

Many times, you may find yourself weighing decisions based solely on price, and if the results are worth it. Today, we are writing this so that you make your decision regarding custom cabinetry.

Materials Cost

Cabinets can be designed by utilizing a wide variety of materials. The material you use for your custom cabinets, whether it be for your kitchen or bathroom, depend on two factors: (1) Your personal preference and (2) your budget. The cabinet material itself can range from wood veneer to stainless steel. To get a regular-sized kitchen fully done, it can cost anywhere from $5,000 to around $20,000.

Cost Per Linear Foot

A good way to view kitchen cabinet dimensions is per linear foot. The national average for custom cabinetry per linear foot ranges from $500-$1,100. Again, this can be affected by many things such as: materials, molding and trim, size, accessories, and location (this is often depicted by intensive the cabinet build must be).

Cabinet Accessories

In the process, you need to factor in pricing for all the cabinet accessories that you would like. It’s important to keep in thought the overall vision and aesthetic that you are going for. To go along with custom cabinets, you also get custom cabinet accessories. So, think about what exactly you want!

At Shrock Premier Cabinets, we pride ourselves on serving you and delivering a full suite of design services applicable to the whole house, not just cabinets. We believe every homeowner has a unique expression of taste, style, and values, and we make it our goal to bring that expression to life. To learn more about our process, click here .

From there, we begin to bring your vision into life and create a cabinet that has your uniqueness attached to it.

Cabinetry Durability

Using strong material in our custom crafts has proved to be an important factor for durability. Custom cabinets are made from materials like hardwood, stone, and even synthetic plastics. All of these are strong, beautiful to the eye, and can last a long time.

When choosing a standard cabinet, you will get a cabinet made from things such as fiberwood, plywood, and even particle board, which does not hold up as well. These will lead to you having to replace the cabinets every so often.

With Shrock's cabinetry being tailor-made and able to keep their beauty, they are masterpieces akin to art. The premier craftsmanship used to make these home décor pieces shines through and shows how magnificent and personalized they are. With custom cabinets, they can become the focal point of your living space or a stunning complementary piece.

3 Reasons to Remodel Your Bathroom

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 16 May 2022 17:17:41 GMT

3 Reasons to Remodel Your Bathroom

Ever scroll through the internet and see bathroom designs that you absolutely love? You’re not alone, we all have. The only thing is that it seems so overwhelming to get your dream bathroom. At Shrock Cabinets, we have found that a great first step towards building a beautiful bathroom starts with replacing your cabinets. Who knows, you may not even need to completely remodel the bathroom!

Optimize your space

An important benefit in cabinets is the space they provide. Getting rid of those old school vanities that waste space and exchanging them for a modern, more functional option is a game changer. With more space, it is easier to organize your bathroom. This will help keep your bathroom tidy and super neat!

Declutter the countertop

When you walk into your bathroom and you see clutter all over your countertop, it can make you dread even having the bathroom. Clutter is super unattractive and is a big problem for homeowners. Bathroom cabinets are the solution to this problem. It allows space for you to place that clutter, so you may never have to have that feeling of dread again!

Update the design

Older bathroom cabinet styles can really be degrading to the look of the bathroom. Even just getting new, customized cabinets for your bathroom can change the look right away. Dreaming about a certain bathroom cabinet design you like online? We can turn those dreams into reality.

The Key to a Successful Kitchen Remodel

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 16 May 2022 16:48:24 GMT

The Key to a Successful Kitchen Remodel

Let’s face it, one of the most important rooms in your home is the kitchen.

And if you are looking to sell your house, a well-designed kitchen can increase the property value greatly. There are a lot of things that go into a kitchen remodel: color, layout, flooring, countertops. But what is arguably the most important detail in a kitchen? The cabinets.

The Importance of Choosing a Custom Cabinet Maker

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 16 May 2022 12:00:12 GMT

The Importance of Choosing a Custom Cabinet Maker

When it comes to upgrading your kitchen or bathroom cabinets, you generally have two options: choose a standard, pre-manufactured design, or go custom. There are several key advantages that come from choosing custom, rather than standard cabinets.

Designed For Your Needs

Standard cabinets are meant to be a “one size fits all” solution. You’ll generally have a couple options to choose from based on the size of your kitchen, but you won’t have any room for customization beyond that.

With custom cabinets, you can get features that cater to your specific needs. From lower drawers with pull-out stepping stools and wine racks to fitting cabinets into awkward corners, working with a custom cabinet maker ensures that your specific wants and needs are met. You’ll also have more choice over the design, including the finish and hardware selections.

Quality Materials & Workmanship

Standard cabinets are often made from inexpensive materials like particleboard. While this makes them less expensive, it also makes them far less durable and more prone to issues such as water damage. Custom cabinet makers use high-quality hardwood that will stand the test of time. You can count on the cabinets to look and perform amazingly for many years. You won’t have to worry about them becoming worn and dilapidated.

For beautiful and durable custom cabinetry, choose Shrock Cabinets. Contact us today, and our design team will get back to you as soon as possible so we can start the process of creating your dream cabinets together.

The Power of In-House Cabinet Designers

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 09 May 2022 12:00:09 GMT

The Power of In-House Cabinet Designers

Not all cabinet designers are created equal. Quite simply, there is a big difference between companies that simply provide a standard set of cabinets and those that employ an in-house design team. Here’s how our in-house cabinet designers can make a difference as you upgrade your home.

Truly Custom Cabinets

Our process begins by consulting with you to capture your unique vision and then having our designers create a hand-drawn rendering that will guide our work. This design aims to serve as an expression of your lifestyle and design preferences. We look at our cabinets as more than just a functional feature (though they certainly provide superb performance as well). They are designed as works of art that help you create your dream home.

Quality From Start to Finish

With a team of in-house designers, there is no need to worry about your unique vision being lost in the manufacturing process. Our designers remain involved throughout, ensuring that the materials and craftsmanship live up to your expectations. With cutting-edge technology and high-end hardwood, mounting hardware, and more, you can have confidence that these beautiful cabinets will stand the test of time.

No matter what kind of project you have in mind, our in-house cabinet designers can help bring it to life. Top-quality materials and high-end finishing touches ensure that every completed design creates a one-of-a-kind masterpiece that your family will love for years to come.

The Benefits of Outsourcing Custom Cabinetry with Shrock

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 02 May 2022 12:00:31 GMT

The Benefits of Outsourcing Custom Cabinetry with Shrock

With today’s housing market more competitive than ever, many people are choosing to remodel and upgrade their existing space, rather than move to a new home.

What to Consider When You’re Designing a Custom Bar For Your Home

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Tue, 19 Apr 2022 12:00:07 GMT

What to Consider When You’re Designing a Custom Bar For Your Home

A custom bar area could be the perfect addition to a man cave or any other part of the house where you want to host guests. Custom cabinets are ideally suited for this type of installation — but you’ll want to do a bit of planning to ensure that everything turns out how you want it.

Custom-Fit to the Purpose

Not all custom bars are created equal. Some people may simply want a space where they can store and/or display glassware, wine bottles, and other related items. If you want to use the custom bar to entertain the whole family, you might wish to incorporate a mini fridge where you can keep sodas or add a microwave for making popcorn on movie nights. Carefully consider how you will use the space so you can account for everything you might want or need.

Know Your Space

Understanding how much space you have to work with is crucial. You may not have enough room for all your desired features, so knowing your limitations can make it easier to narrow down between which features are “must haves” and which would just be “nice to have.” Measuring the height of your tallest bottle or accessory can help you figure out the proper measurements between the counter and upper cabinets, and the top shelf of the cabinets and the ceiling.

By understanding what you want and how custom cabinets can work with your space, you can design the perfect custom bar for your needs — and Shrock Cabinets can help! Our experienced craftsmen are dedicated to bringing your vision to life with top-quality materials that wills stand the test of time. Contact us today to get started!

Kitchen Cabinets in 2022 — What’s Hot This Year?

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Tue, 05 Apr 2022 12:21:00 GMT

Kitchen Cabinets in 2022 — What’s Hot This Year?

There are countless design options to choose from when upgrading your kitchen cabinets. With that in mind, it is always fun and helpful to know what is currently trending in the world of kitchen design. Here are a few hot trends that can give you ideas for planning your own cabinet renovation.

Cabinet Lighting

Accent lighting installed inside or underneath the upper cabinetry can greatly enhance the usability of your space. Task lighting with warm LED bulbs and dimmer settings can create a cozy feel, while giving you total control over your kitchen lighting. Cabinet lighting pairs well with countertop lamps, smart light fixtures, and natural light sources.

Natural Finishes

While painted cabinets remain popular, natural finishes that highlight the grain of the wood are also surging in popularity. Wood species such as ash offer a rich grain that brings an elegant look to any kitchen. Natural wood finishes are especially popular in kitchens that use other natural materials, such as marble or granite countertops.

No Handles

Contemporary and modern cabinet design emphasizes a clean, streamlined look. As a result, handleless cabinets have become increasingly popular for achieving this style. Alternatively, many modern cabinets use recessed handles, which offer the convenience of a standard handle while helping the cabinet maintain a sleek contemporary look.

No matter what type of kitchen cabinet design you have in mind, Shrock Cabinets can help make it a reality. Our experienced design team works with you to understand your unique vision and craft one-of-a-kind cabinets that are truly your own. Contact us today to learn more.

How Long Does a Kitchen Remodel Take?

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Tue, 05 Apr 2022 11:57:15 GMT

How Long Does a Kitchen Remodel Take?

Kitchen remodeling is one of the most popular renovations that can be made to the home — and for good reason. As one of the most-used parts of the house, upgrading your kitchen cabinets can provide a high-value facelift that greatly enhances the functionality of the space. As part of preparing for this work, homeowners are often concerned about how long the remodeling will take. Here are some things to consider.

General Timelines For Cabinet Remodeling

The timeline for updating your cabinetry and taking care of other remodeling tasks will generally depend on the size of your kitchen and the scope of the changes you want to make. For example, if you are planning a custom cabinet installation, you should typically plan for about 10 days for the cabinets to get put together after a design is finalized. A new countertop can be installed a few days after the new cabinets, and backsplash, flooring, and other updates can be added after that.

If you are planning for major renovations — such as reworking the layout of your kitchen and installing new plumbing and electrical fixtures — you may need to plan for a longer remodeling period.

Tips to Prepare For the Remodel

During the remodeling process, parts of your kitchen will be inaccessible at times. You can make this easier by planning meals ahead of time and ensuring you still have access to the refrigerator and microwave. Using disposable plates and utensils or eating out can also make it easier to adjust to the temporary disruption to your space. Communicate with the remodeling team so you will know what to expect and can plan accordingly.

If you’re ready to upgrade your kitchen with gorgeous new cabinetry, contact Shrock Cabinets today. Our expert team works with you to develop a design that brings your vision to life, and then use top-quality materials and craftsmanship to build cabinets you will love for many years to come.

Beyond the Kitchen

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 28 Feb 2022 13:00:08 GMT

Beyond the Kitchen - Cabinet Solutions for the Bathroom, Office, and More!

When most people think of upgrading their cabinets, they focus on the kitchen. But in reality, cabinet upgrades can make a big impact throughout the house.

Bathrooms

Bathrooms often have limited storage space — but at the same time, there is often a lot that needs to be stored in there. From towels to toilet paper, finding space for everything can be tough. In addition to updating below-sink cabinetry, custom cabinet solutions often include wall-mounted shelving, which helps to maximize storage without taking up floor space.

Home Office

More people work from home than ever these days, which means many families have more paperwork, books, and office supplies they need to keep organized. Custom cabinets can be designed to fit around your desk, filing cabinets, and other office features so you can increase storage capacity without losing precious floor space.

Laundry Room

From an ironing board to laundry detergent, the laundry room also has its fair share of items that need organizing. Custom storage solutions can be designed with specialty add-ons to better accommodate bulky items like ironing boards, while still providing the necessary space for organizing smaller supplies.

Top Reasons to Remodel Your Kitchen

Kitchen remodeling can be a major undertaking, particularly when replacing major features like the cabinets and countertops. While no two kitchen remodeling projects are exactly alike, here are some common reasons why you might want to upgrade your cabinets.

Enhance Functionality

From rotating and pull-out shelves to built-in spice racks, there are countless ways you can customize your cabinets to better fit your needs. These and other enhanced features will streamline your daily routine in a way that matches your lifestyle.

Increase Storage Space

If your current cabinets are practically overflowing and your countertops are getting crowded with clutter, it’s time to upgrade. Custom cabinets can even extend to the ceiling to provide extra shelving space for rarely-used items. This will keep your kitchen much better organized, making the space easier to use and more visually appealing.

Improve Aesthetics

Damaged or dated kitchen features can drag down the appearance of the entire room. Upgrading with custom cabinets or new countertops can give your kitchen a complete makeover, even if you keep the layout the same. This provides a great opportunity to help your kitchen match the rest of your interior design to create a cohesive look throughout the house.

No matter why yo u want to remodel your kitchen, Shrock Cabinets can help. Our gorgeous custom cabinets use top-quality wood and high-end finishing touches to deliver results that are second to none. To learn more about what we can do for you, contact us today.

Are Custom Cabinets a Good Investment in My Home?

Are Custom Cabinets a Good Investment in My Home?

While kitchen remodeling is one of the most common home improvement projects a family will undertake, some may be hesitant to do so because they wonder if it is a worthwhile investment. This is especially true for people who think they may sell their home sometime in the future. Here are a few considerations for determining the ROI for custom cabinets.

Increase in Resale Value

Because the kitchen is one of the most used parts of the house, any significant upgrades are going to have a direct impact on the home’s resale value. As such, most remodeling projects are able to recoup most of the investment simply through the increase in home value. Of course, custom cabinetry can also go a long way in making your home more appealing to prospective buyers. Beautiful cabinets with great functionality can help you land more offers when selling your home, further increasing the resale value.

The Right Tools & Materials For the Job

Regardless of whether you plan to sell in the relatively near future or you want to stay in your home forever, custom cabinets are a great investment simply in how they improve your quality of life. Enhanced storage space can help you declutter and get better organized. You can even find a place for unique kitchen items that don’t fit in normal cabinets! A more attractive look will also make the kitchen a more enjoyable place to be. Each time you cook will be more streamlined and enjoyable — perhaps the most important investment of all.

If you’re ready to invest in custom cabinets for your home, contact Shrock Cabinets. With unique designs that perfectly capture your lifestyle and tastes, upgrading your cabinets is sure to give your home a desirable facelift that you and any future owners of the home will lo ve.

How to Plan for Your Custom Cabinet Designs

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 17 Jan 2022 13:00:08 GMT

How to Plan for Your Custom Cabinet Designs

When planning for custom cabinets, it’s only natural that you would want to turn to expert craftsmen who can produce stunning results. While our team can help you with the design process, there are a few key decisions you need to make during the planning phase to ensure you love your finished cabinets.

Design Style

First, you’ll want to choose the general style that best matches your personality and the aesthetic of your home. For example, modern cabinets use a sleek minimalist design with cool colors and sometimes, dramatically contrasting painted finishes. Rustic style cabinets, on the other hand, typically feature natural wood finishes and carefully carved accents. Understanding your style preferences is crucial for designing a look you will love.

Desired Features

Custom cabinet designs should also bring enhanced functionality to your kitchen. This means you can go beyond the adjustable shelves found in standard cabinets. Based on your storage needs, you could incorporate features such as pull-out shelves, slide-out baskets for trash cans, or even specialty shelves for items like silverware and spices. Such features can be built in to your custom cabinets to free up valuable floor and countertop space.

If you’re not entirely sure what you want, don’t worry! Our team can walk you through the design process and help you come up with something that works well for your space. After that, you can sit back and let our team install amazingly beautiful and functional cabinets.

Top 5 Design Trends for Custom Cabinetry

Top 5 Design Trends for Custom Cabinetry

Installing custom cabinets is a great way to make a space truly your own. Of course, with so many design options available, deciding what will look best can sometimes feel a bit overwhelming. Here’s a look at some current trends you could use for design inspiration.

Minimalism

Many modern kitchens are taking cues from minimalist design. As part of this, the cabinets use a clean, simple aesthetic that is free of ornate design work. Smooth edges, clean lines, and low-profile handles help create a modern look that minimizes the clutter.

Multiple Finish Colors

A popular option in modern kitchens, the use of multiple finish colors can add visual interest to any kitchen. For example, many homeowners will use a different color for the island than the rest of the cabinets. Or you could use different finishes for upper and base cabinets. Don’t be afraid to go bold!

Open Shelving

When properly organized, open shelving can provide a distinct look that also allows you to showcase your favorite dish set or decor. Open shelving also creates the illusion of more space, helping your kitchen feel large and airy.

Cabinet Lighting

Adding lighting under your upper cabinets can enhance the ambiance of the room, or provide helpful task lighting to make meal prep even easier. Energy efficient LED lighting is available in minimalist, unobtrusive designs that integrate easily with any cabinet style.

Smart Tech Storage

Today’s kitchens use more tech than ever — and your cabinets can adapt to meet your new gadget needs. Features like docking stations, device holders, or even built-in space for smart devices are all popular picks.

Before You Start Your Custom Cabinetry Project

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 06 Dec 2021 14:27:46 GMT

Before You Start Your Custom Cabinetry Project

Custom cabinetry can completely transform your kitchen, bathrooms, or other parts of your house. But the very nature of a custom cabinet project means that you’re not getting a “one size fits all” design. By focusing on needs specific to your home, you can have confidence that you’ll love the final result.

Consider What You Need For Your Space

Functionality is one of the most common reasons people choose to upgrade their existing cabinets. Make a list about what you like and dislike about your current cabinetry. Use this to prioritize which features you want for your new cabinet installation. Be it more storage space or the addition of specialty features like an integrated cutting board or wine rack, such upgrades will help you make the most of your new cabinets.

Choose Your Style

Cabinets are a dominating visual focal point in any room. As such, you should also consider which style will be the best fit for your home. Be mindful of other design features in your home so your new cabinets help create a cohesive style. Don’t be afraid to go online in search of design inspiration if you need help finding a style that you love!

After you’ve gotten an idea of what you want for your custom cabinetry project, it’s time to meet with the custom cabinetry experts at Shrock Cabinets. From contemporary to rustic styles, our team will work with you to deliver a result that turns your plans into reality.

Top Benefits of Custom Cabinetry

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 25 Oct 2021 16:22:16 GMT

Top Benefits of Custom Cabinetry

The true difference between custom wood cabinets and cheaper off the shelf alternatives often can’t be fully appreciated until seen in person. As one of the visual focal points of the home, custom cabinets can greatly enhance the look of your kitchen and bathroom. However, this is only the tip of the iceberg in terms of the benefits custom cabinets can provide.

A True Custom Fit

Custom cabinets are designed with your home — and your unique needs — in mind. You won’t have wasted space from fillers or spacers. Instead of awkward gaps, the cabinets will be perfectly configured to the dimensions of the room. They will accommodate appliances, sinks, and other features, all while maximizing storage space.

This includes the addition of special features that further enhance your functionality. From pullout drawers in a pantry cabinet and vertical shelves to angled corner cabinets and pullout spice racks, cabinet designers will work with you to incorporate your most-wanted features.

Superior Craftsmanship

Prefabricated cabinets typically use wood substitutes like particleboard or medium-density fiberboard. These materials are far less durable, and are less attractive than solid wood. Custom cabinets are crafted using high-quality solid hardwood to deliver the greatest possible performance and appearance. With work performed by experienced, skilled craftsmen, you get design that matches the quality and durability of the hardwood itself.

For custom cabinetry that elevates your entire home, choose Shrock Cabinets. Using the finest hardwoods, cutting-edge technology, and skilled craftsmen, our team will deliver beautiful cabinets that will deliver the “wow” factor.

Custom Bathroom Cabinets

Whether you’re remodeling the master bathroom or updating the guest bathroom, high-quality cabinets can make all the difference for your bathroom design. Here at Shrock Cabinets, our dedicated craftsmen will help you identify your needs and design cabinets that match your space.

Our team will work with you to understand your vision and bring it to life with high-quality solid hardwood cabinets. From the finish to hardware selections, our attention to detail will ensure that the final result is a perfect fit for your bathroom.

Our extensive experience in designing custom installations enables us to maximize cabinet functionality and work around features such as a Jack and Jill suite, a powder room, or even a walk-in shower.

We’re with you every step of the way to ensure the final result helps you create your dream bathroom, all while delivering work that is on-budget and on time. Contact us today to request a quote and get started on your custom bathroom cabinet project.

Custom Kitchen Cabinets

The kitchen is more than just a place for preparing meals. Quite often, it’s where family birthday parties, dinners, and other events are held, making it one of the most important rooms of the house. Your kitchen cabinets have a tremendous impact on the style and functionality of this space.

Upgrading your home with custom kitchen cabinets is one of the best investments you could ever make — especially when you work with Shrock Cabinets. Our experienced craftsmen will work closely with you to design a cabinet installation that perfectly fits your space, needs, and budget.

Our work begins by meeting with you to understand your goals for your custom kitchen cabinets. After measuring your kitchen, we can fine-tune design ideas to ensure that no space goes to waste. Add-on features will make your cabinets even more versatile.

Our skilled craftsmen use only the highest-quality hardwoods, finishes, and hardware to create kitchen cabinets that match your design preferences. Whether you prefer a contemporary or rustic look, or a painted or stained wood finish, our team will make it happen.

Should You Consider Custom Cabinets?

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 18 Oct 2021 16:19:22 GMT

Should You Consider Custom Cabinets?

Custom cabinets can completely transform the look of your home. While custom cabinets offer several advantages over off-the-shelf models, some people may still debate whether they are worth the investment. Here are some key factors to consider.

What’s the Difference Between Custom and Standard Cabinets?

Standard, off-the-shelf cabinets aim to provide a “one size fits all” solution. Choices are limited to standard cabinet sizes and features. Quite often, this also results in a lot of unused space (especially in the corners). This can also make it harder to match your home’s trim, furniture, and other finishes.

With custom cabinets, you gain total control over the design. You can match any finish within your home, or create exciting contrast. You can incorporate different cabinet sizes and features to maximize your kitchen or bathroom storage options.

What About Costs?

One of the most common concerns homeowners have when choosing between custom and standard cabinets is the price. While custom cabinets will cost more initially, they more than pay for themselves in the long run. Superior materials and workmanship ensures that custom cabinets will last much longer than standard models. The added storage functionality will also help you avoid the need for making other storage upgrades to your home.

If your home could benefit from custom cabinets, contact Shrock Cabinets today. Our team’s creative and artful approach will help capture your vision, delivering results you can be proud of while staying within your budget.

5 Tips for Selecting a Custom Cabinet Maker

josiah@crossbridgemarketing.com (Josiah Martin) — Mon, 11 Oct 2021 16:17:21 GMT

5 Tips for Selecting a Custom Cabinet Maker

Custom cabinets can greatly enhance the beauty and functionality of your home. But if you want amazing cabinets that you’ll love for years to come, you need to start by choosing the right custom cabinet maker. Here are some key things to look for.

1. Examples of Past Work

They say a picture is worth a thousand words — and this is especially true of custom cabinets. A good cabinet maker should have a large online gallery so you can see what they’re capable of. This will also help you get ideas for which style cabinets you prefer.

2. Strong Reviews and Referrals

In the internet age, reviews and referrals are just a click away. Testimonials and reviews showcase a cabinet maker’s credibility. They give you an idea of the quality of their work, and what it is like to work with them.

3. Upfront Costs

No one wants to be surprised with a bill that is hundreds or even thousands of dollars more than expected. Your cabinet maker should explain all costs upfront so you can make selections that fit your budget.

4. Experienced, Passionate Staff

A quality cabinet maker truly loves what they do. They draw on this passion and years of industry experience to deliver stunning results every time. This passion should be readily apparent in each interaction.

5. Non-Pushy Team

Custom cabinets can completely alter the look of your home, so it’s only natural that you wouldn’t want to rush into a design decision. Your cabinet maker should be willing to work with you to find the right fit, rather than pressuring you into buying something immediately.

For these qualities and more, choose Shrock Cabinets for your next home improvement project. Whether you plan to upgrade your bathroom or kitchen, our passionate team will help you with a design that perfectly fits your tastes and budget.
