Our Shop

Built from raw material.
Finished to last a lifetime.

For over three decades, Arbor Valley has operated as a full-production cabinet shop — not a reseller, not an assembler. Raw sheet goods and solid lumber come in one end of the building; finished, installed cabinetry goes out the other.

From Lumber to Installation

01 Prep

Material Selection

Each project begins with carefully selected hardwoods, veneers, sheet goods, and stone surfaces, chosen for grain continuity, durability, and design intent.

02 Cutting

Precision Fabrication

Computer-guided beam saws and CNC machining systems execute highly accurate cuts and nested components, ensuring every panel and part aligns with the approved design.

03 Prep

Milling & Structural Prep

Solid wood elements are milled, jointed, and stabilized, while specialty press systems prepare mitered edges, bonded panels, and structural assemblies for long-term performance.

04 Assembly

Custom Component Crafting

Doors, drawer fronts, floating panels, curved hood forms, and specialty millwork elements are fabricated with meticulous attention to proportion, symmetry, and function.

05 Assembly

Edge Detailing

Premium edgebanding, mitering, waterfall transitions, and veneer wrapping techniques create seamless visual continuity from face to profile.

06 Sanding

Surface Refinement

Wide-belt sanding and hand refinement processes establish a flawless surface, enhancing grain clarity and preparing every piece for a furniture-grade finish.

07 Painting

Architectural Finishing

Controlled spray environments and hand-applied finishing techniques produce rich painted, stained, lacquered, or natural surfaces with exceptional depth and consistency.

08 Assembly

Assembly & Quality Review

Each piece is dry-fitted, assembled, and inspected to verify alignment, reveals, hardware operation, and finish quality before leaving the shop.

09 Installation

Delivery & Precision Installation

From protected transport and on-site staging to final placement, calibration, and reveal alignment, every installation is completed with the same precision as fabrication.
