Question 1

How do you handle varying food container sizes?

Accepted Answer

Pantry towers use 5mm "system holes" for total shelf flexibility. For deep pantries, we prefer full-extension pull-out shelves so nothing gets lost in the dark back corners.

Question 2

How deep are corner wall cabinets?

Accepted Answer

Standard wall cabinets are 12" deep, but a diagonal corner unit is typically 24" x 24" on the wall. This provides a massive amount of storage for large mixing bowls or light-use appliances.

Question 3

How much weight can large pot drawers hold?

Accepted Answer

Standard drawers handle 75–100 lbs, but for 36" or wide 42" stacks, we use heavy-duty runners (e.g., Richelieu Axiom or Blum Movento) rated for 150+ lbs to prevent drawer-front sagging.

Question 4

Is a drawer-mounted knife block better than a counter block?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It clears counter space and protects the blades. We CNC-machine a solid wood block that fits the drawer perfectly, with specific slots for various blade lengths and honers.

Question 5

How are trash and recycling handled?

Accepted Answer

We use dual 35 or 50-quart bins on over-travel slides. High-end builds include "Servo-Drive" electronic openers—just tap the door with your knee to open it when your hands are full.

Question 6

What is an 'Internal' roll-out?

Accepted Answer

Unlike a standard drawer, an ROT sits behind a cabinet door. This maintains a clean, uniform exterior look with large doors while providing the ergonomic benefit of pull-out storage.

Question 7

Do you provide custom closet storage?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For dressing rooms or master vanities, we offer velvet-lined drawer inserts with CNC-cut compartments for watches, rings, and ties, often paired with a "hidden" locking mechanism.

Question 8

Is a Lazy Susan worth the extra cost in a small kitchen?

Accepted Answer

In small kitchens, a Lazy Susan is often the most cost-effective way to prevent 'dead' corners, though modern pull-out trays offer better weight capacity.

Question 9

What is a 'LeMans' corner solution?

Accepted Answer

A high-end alternative to a Lazy Susan featuring two independent, peanut-shaped shelves that swing completely out of the cabinet, providing 100% visibility and easier access to heavy mixers.

Question 10

How do you store tall bottles?

Accepted Answer

We use a reinforced base pull-out with high chrome rails. This prevents heavy glass bottles from tipping when the drawer is moved and can be fitted with a stainless steel "ice bucket" insert.

Question 11

Can magnets be hidden in the wood?

Accepted Answer

We can embed high-strength neodymium magnets behind a thin wood veneer. This allows you to "stick" knives or metal spice tins directly to the cabinet gable without visible hardware.

Question 12

Where should wet tea towels go?

Accepted Answer

We install a 3-prong sliding rack in a narrow 6" cabinet, often near the sink or range. This provides airflow to dry towels while keeping them hidden from view.

Question 13

What is a 'Stepped' spice drawer?

Accepted Answer

A tiered wood insert that allows spice jars to lay at an angle. This makes every label visible at a glance and prevents jars from rattling or tipping over.

Question 14

How do you fit more silverware in one drawer?

Accepted Answer

We install a "Double-Decker" drawer-in-a-drawer. The top tray slides back to reveal a second layer of storage below, doubling the capacity for cutlery and small gadgets.

Question 15

How do you maximize storage around sink plumbing?

Accepted Answer

We build a custom "U-shaped" drawer box that wraps around the P-trap and disposal. This reclaims the top 6" of the sink base, which is usually wasted "dead space."

Question 16

Are slim 6-inch cabinets useful for anything?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A 6" or 9" vertical pullout is ideal for spices, oils, or baking sheets. These utilize full-extension slides to make items at the very back of the cabinet easily accessible.

Question 17

How should cookie sheets be stored?

Accepted Answer

We use removable 1/4" vertical wood dividers. Storing pans and cutting boards on their side prevents the "avalanche" effect and makes it easier to grab a single tray without digging.
