These functional oak built-in storage cabinets were built and installed for a couple who lives in the Queen's Village, Philadelphia area. The Center City couple had a storage problem on their first floor and they wanted to resolve it, but did not want the look of a basic storage closet in their kitchen and dining area. They came up with an idea and a drawing of a simple but stylish oak built-in storage cabinet along with some open shelving, drawers and lots of doors to stow away anything they would want out of sight but still be easily accessible. The home owners designed this built- in unit themselves and thought it would be a good idea to incorporate a small entertainment center which houses a television, DVD player and stereo as seen here.

This oak built-in storage cabinet was built in seven pieces at my woodworking shop and assembled at the project site. Before this built-in storage cabinet began its manufacturing stages, exact measurements were taken so that the built-in cabinetry would fit together perfectly and by adding a small amount of filler pieces on both sides for that tight fitting look the customer specified. The bottom of the built-in cabinetry has a 4 inch toe-kick setback and a flat header molding at the top to tie the built-in cabinetry to the ceiling. This custom built-in oak storage cabinet also includes two different lighting groups on dedicated dimmer switches along with three electrical outlets making this custom built- in storage cabinet satisfying to the customer's electrical needs.

The customer requested shelving that would be adjustable on 3/4 inch increments as space was tight for this small built- in entertainment center and while keeping in mind future components. Notice the small 7 inch high door panels above the entertainment center and along the entire top, (five in all). These operating doors flip up and hold open to allow extra built-in storage for small things and while using all available space. European self-closing hidden hinges were used for this built-in storage cabinet allowing for its smooth finished look. The customers decided they wanted to keep their new built-in storage cabinets as close to its natural red oak color as possible, and since it was adjacent to the kitchen area. I suggested using clear water based conversion varnish for the finish, because conversion varnish is designed for areas where water and moisture would be present.

This beautiful custom built-in floating vanity is just what the customer desired. The customer contacted me with her ideas and drawing and wasn't sure if she could find a bathroom vanity that would fit in between her two bathroom walls. I assured her that as a custom cabinet maker I could easily fulfill her bathroom vanity wishes. We designed this beautiful five door with three drawers built-in bathroom vanity and with a conversion varnish over white that will tolerate the damp bathroom environment. Needless to say the customer was thrilled over the top with her new wall to wall floating bathroom vanity.

Here is another fine example of a custom built kitchen sink base cabinet. The customer contact Cabinet Makers Custom Built-in Bookcases and wanted to know if it was possible to make a one piece 60 inch wide kitchen base cabinet for a odd area in her kitchen. She wanted a one piece cabinet as shown above but with a trashcan pull out on the right side. She also wanted the cabinet to match her existing kitchen cabinetry so we made the maple kitchen base cabinet doors to match including the flush mount face framing doors exactly. This cabinet was installed up against a wall with a heater vent so we installed an air duct and venting underneath the cabinet to accommodate.

This maple tabletop style headboard was seen in a magazine by a Queen's Village Center City Philadelphia customer and wanted to know if I could duplicate it. Since the magazine's picture showed good detail, it was easy to estimate size and scale. For instance, there is a three-quarter inch countersunk slot which was approximately 3 inches above the bed surface and 10 inches below the tabletop surface. The two pull out shelves on either side needed to be located 3 inches away from the bed sides in order for them to be functional. The total height of the headboard would be figured out according to the existing bed's heights. By recognizing these basic facts the measurements came easily.

This picture illustrates the functional 18 inch extra deep tabletop headboard that can be easily cleaned and serves very well as a large nightstand. Notice the 1 inch wide 45° bevel edge that runs continuously around the top edge perimeter of this beautifully finished table top headboard. This headboard was built by using high quality Hard Rock Maple wood and was planed and sanded with extremely fine sandpaper for a high quality ultra smooth lacquer finish. The customer was extremely satisfied with the product and just as satisfied in the timely manner it was manufactured and installed as this headboard was a welcome home gift for his daughter returning from college on summer break. Products like this headboard and all of my cabinetry and bookcases can be easily manufactured in my fully equipped cabinet making shop at your request.

This extra wide maple his and her's double bowl bathroom vanity was constructed for an Queen's Village, Center City Philadelphia customer who desired more vanity space for their newly renovated bathroom. This custom maple bathroom vanity was designed with solid wood flat panel doors, European-style self closing hidden hinges and adjustable shelves that stores lots of items out of sight but readily available. The flat panel vanity doors are easily opened and held closed by magnetic touch latches. The home owner can keep the counter top clean and easily maintained thanks to the help of two under mount vanity sinks that are positioned and attached under the vanity top, (hence the name under mount sink).

As seen here in this picture both under mount sinks are placed under the counter top which allows excess water and spills to be swept easily into the sinks with the side of the hand. This extra wide double bowl vanity came complete with his and her's medicine cabinets and matching light bar, completing this beautiful vanity outfit. The two medicine cabinets on either side contains 3/8 inch tempered glass shelving that are completely adjustable. The mirror in the middle was fixed against the wall and purposely setback to add dimension to this stylish and beautiful vanity outfit. All the wood making up this gorgeous bathroom vanity, medicine cabinet and light bar are made from high quality Hard Rock Maple and finished with conversion varnish. Water based conversion varnish is a high quality moisture resistant finish that is designed for bathroom and kitchen areas.

This elegant and stylish cherry wood bathroom vanity and the adjoining eight-foot tall side storage cabinet were two of the main pieces for this high end Mainline Montgomery County bathroom. The Mainline customers wanted their bathroom cabinetry, mirror frame, light bar, crown moldings and corner wall shelving to be made from high quality solid cherry wood and to match consistently throughout their newly renovated bathroom. The doors and the mounted wood scrawlings that helped make up this exquisite bathroom vanity and the side storage cabinet were actually copied from a magazine picture that the customer had and wanted to duplicate throughout her new bathroom design. The cabinetry doors are operated by European style self closing hidden hinges and are open with Gothic style antique brass "D" handles. The bathroom vanity and the neighboring side storage cabinet are designed with deep, wide spacious adjustable shelving. As illustrated in the middle picture you'll notice the deep warm 4 inch cherry crown molding continuing a-top the wall's porcelain tiles as it crest the entire bathroom's ceiling perimeter. All the cherry wood for this bathroom cabinetry renovation project were enriched with cherry stain and finished with multiple coats of satin conversion varnish embracing the woods natural beauty for countless years to come.

This custom built-in entertainment center was for a Queen's Village, Center City Philadelphia customers who were having their master bed-room completely renovated. The customer and their contractor supplied me with a specific design and measurements so that the built-in cabinet would be fitted in the un-drywalled 2"x4" framing and then by fitting drywall sheets around the built-in giving it that perfect finished look. The two shelves are fixed in place for this particular unit as they are specifically set apart for the customers pre-sized entertainment equipment and wiring connections. The customer request European self closing hidden hinges for this custom built-in entertainment center as they enhance a more finished look. As shown in the right hand picture, when the flush doors are fully closed, all wood grains line up perfectly. The doors are easily opened by touch latches eliminating the use of door handles. As shown, this built-in entertainment center was left unfinished as their paint finishing contractor wanted to control its texture and finish with other woodworking materials throughout the bedroom renovation project.

Interested in treating your hallway with a new look. The customer of this beautiful Center City Philadelphia home desired real wall paneling. She wanted the wall paneling to be the same height as the entry door and stretching the full 16' depth of the hallway. We treated the paneling with double raised panels while keeping 4'' spacing between. The paneling was also treated with a high baseboard, sectional end molding and a spacious top molding. The top molding of the wall paneling was designed with a stop notch so that the customer could stand picture frames from. This beautiful wall paneling was finished with a high grade brilliant white acrylic paint which will endure rugged use for a lifetime.

Integrity and quality control is the heart of every project!!!

This beautiful home entertainment center with its convenient remote-controlled fireplace makes this impressive Wynnewood, Pennsylvania condo even more cozier than it was before by far. The customer knew exactly how he wanted the secretary style cabinetry to be laid out but wasn't sure about the type of cabinetry doors that would suit best since the kitchen cabinetry was next to the left wall. I suggested that he should not attempt to match the kitchen cabinetry doors to the new entertainment center because it would look like the kitchen would be extended into the living room. I made a mission-style cabinetry doors sample but with a beaded inside molding. The customer liked the idea, and we integrated the new mission-style doors in the plan and creating a sensational one-of-a-kind home entertainment center making the customer completely happy.

This contemporary home entertainment center is equipped with only the best cabinet making construction materials. Even though it's painted white, all the materials are made from solid lumber core maple and veneer core maple. The crown molding is 9 inches wide and is also made of solid maple. Using maple wood is more economical for paint projects, and it is a great wood material for paint absorption making it widely used within professional cabinet makers. Now note the ample storage room behind the mission-style cabinetry doors and bookcases and not to mention it also has a bench seat with hide away storage underneath located on the far right-hand side of the unit. The fireplace hearth and upper sides and top are wrapped with beautiful black on black granite making this entertainment center a warm complement to this attractive condo.

This beautiful oversized combination entertainment center with storage was the perfect fit for this cozy Old City Philadelphia home. The ceiling is an unusual 12-foot in height, which made the ample storage so convenient in the wall niche for this mission-style solid wood cabinetry system. The lower cabinet includes mission-style doors with self-closing hinges while centered above self-closing drawers for lots of storage. A beautiful highly polished 1 1/2 inch desktop was included with wrap around walls and ceiling making it a perfect niche for the oversized flat screen TV. An 8-foot Putnam Rolling Ladder system with polished nickel rollers and track was included to gain access to the ample storage above. The customer included in the building plans a 16" x 12' open face adjustable bookcase shelving unit to the right of the entertainment center for extra needed storage.

Part of the design for this custom built entertainment center was to include an extra-long rolling ladder track so that the ladder can be stored out of the way and close to the wall. Cabinet Makers Custom Built-in Bookcases only uses the highest quality materials for every cabinet making project. Even though this is a white paint grade project, only solid veneer lumber core 3/4 and 1/2 maple wood material was used. Maple wood is always a primary choice amongst professional cabinet makers. Maple wood is highly considered a truly solid hardwood which will endure household or industrial use over a lifetime, and this is why it is always the primary choice for paint grade projects. Notice the matching highly polished nickel rolling ladder hardware and the door and drawer pulls. The customer decided to conveniently hide away all electronic TV cable boxes and wiring behind the lower cabinetry doors making this entertainment center clutter free.

Something simple!! The customer wanted a cherry wood pedestal for her statue that she just recently purchased. She wanted an attractive cherry wood grain, so I then put this together using a mahogany wood stain and finishing it with a multiple clear coat lacquer. It was exactly what she wanted to display her beautiful piece of art work for her contemporary living room.

This proud and stunting fireplace surround with extra thick mental, and its towering inlaid upper mission-style panel is the showcase of this beautiful Center City Philadelphia condo. Maria, the homeowner supplied me with a picture and wanted to know if I could duplicate and make it work in her unusually 12 feet high ceiling condo living room. Even though it is a white paint project we needed to use and only use hard-rock maple because of its superior long-lasting qualities and upholding a beautiful and lasting paint finish. Since the customer was leaning towards a mission-style look, I suggested making a sample mission style piece but with an inner rounded beading. We proceeded and duplicated her dream fireplace surround project and only used the highest quality USA and Canadian solid lumber core maple materials and created this magnificent brilliant white fireplace surround. Maria, usually works at home and is thrilled over the top knowing that she will enjoy her beautiful fireplace surround and her forced hot air pellet stove keeping her warm during those cold winter days.

The door handles are exquisite arch design and made of highly polished stainless steel which complements these elegant bookcases entirely.

This beautiful white twin built-in bookcase was perfectly built and seamlessly installed in this beautiful Brownstone South Philadelphia home. The customer has an existing bookcase to the left outside of the picture and they wanted it duplicated exactly to the tee. The lower portion of the bookcase has 8 inset shaker-style doors with a 1 1/2 inch thick solid maple tabletop above.

The entire face of the bathroom vanity cabinet is full overlay utilizing mechanical self-closing soft-closing drawer glides and door-hidden hinges. The customer pre-purchased her desirable door handles and I installed them prior to delivery.

Behind the doors are lots of storage and shelves; we even added a beautiful bookcase with adjustable shelving to the right.
