HOW  WE  BUILD

We are fully engaged in every single facet of the projects we execute, from cabinetry to fine furniture, carefully overseeing each and every phase of production meticulously until the final product is delivered and installed to our valued clients.

Every one of our cabinet designs are skillfully and intricately produced in-house from start to finish without the need for any external partnerships or collaborations, ensuring the highest quality throughout the entire process!

There is indeed a significant difference in the cabinet manufacturer you choose!

Each manufacturer varies not only in the quality of materials they use but also in the craftsmanship and design options they offer. 

Finding the right cabinet maker is important because it is a significant investment in your home's functionality, durability, and value.

The right professional ensures your specific vision is brought to life with quality craftsmanship, while the wrong one can lead to costly mistakes and ongoing frustration.

If you're looking for RTA (Ready-to-Assemble) cabinets made from MDF, Particle Board or imported plywoods, we suggest exploring options at IKEA along with various major retail chains.

It's important to note, that nearly all cabinet shops utilize these kinds of materials in one form or another in there builds. The cost of a product often indicates it's quality.

However, there are instances where this may not hold true. kitchen cabinet renovations are a goldmine for disaster with the wrong cabinet manufacturer. From collapsing cabinets, incorrect measurements, to vanishing contractors, these real-life "nightmare" stories highlight just how quickly a dream kitchen can turn into a catastrophe. 

With some research, understanding all the materials used in a cabinet build and how all the cabinets are put together, can empower you to make a well-informed decision, or it could result in inferior quality and additional structure complication challenges later on. 

Unfortunately, the quality of these materials and the methods employed in their assembly have repeatedly fallen short of our expectations. 

We acknowledged from the beginning the importance of enhancing our construction methods and selecting premium materials made in Canada, ensuring 

Quality, Durability & Longevity.

1. Our cabinet boxes ARE NOT  put together with  staples, dowel-cams, or butt joints as is typical in most cabinet shops and large retail chains.

2. Additionally, we DO NOT utilize edge banding that may peel away shortly after installation or chip when pulling out something from a cabinet shelf.

3. We DO NOT use imported plywood materials, as these are typical indicators of lower quality, especially concerning veneer consistency and it's dimensional stability. Foreign plywood, particularly lower-cost imports, sometimes contain contaminants ("garbage") in the bonding process.  

4. WE DO NOT USE MDF or Particle board laminate panels, imported plywood or any other inferior materials. These materials are toxic, susceptible to moisture damage, struggle to support substantial weight, are easily compromised, exhibit poor water resistance, deteriorate rapidly, and fail to allow for secure drilling, leading to unreliable fastening solutions.

Cedar Lane Custom Kitchens distinctly positions itself as a truly unique cabinet manufacturer, emphasizing an innovative approach to cabinet making that is genuinely unparalleled in the industry.

With nearly two decades of experience and expertise in the cabinet making industry, we take great pride in our focus on creating and producing genuine, bespoke cabinetry. Our goal is to design and craft cabinetry that is uniquely tailored to meet your specific needs, preferences, and lifestyle requirements. We understand that no two projects are alike; therefore, we work closely with you to ensure that every piece reflects your personal style and functional demands.

We take great pride in building our cabinets using a distinctive innovative interlocking  joinery  technique.

This ensures outstanding structural durability.

Our cabinets are meticulously crafted to not only withstand the test of time but also to flourish year after year!

 Our cabinets will never sag or fall apart under weight or pressure, maintaining their strength through years of use

These features represent just a glimpse of why we proudly support each product we design with our true lifetime warranty on all cabinet construction, spray applications and hardware installations.

Such a commitment of this nature is truly rare in the cabinet making industry!

We exclusively utilize 3/4 inch premium-grade plywoods for all of our upper and lower cabinet boxes.

This includes a true 3/4 inch five-panel box construction that encompasses every side, back, top, and bottom of our cabinets. Additionally, we offer a variety of plywood options such as walnut, cherry, hickory, mahogany and many more wood species.

We incorporate solid wood structural supports in the design and construction of all our cabinetry builds and wherever these reinforcements are essential. Ensuring a robust and stable foundation that can withstand daily use and the test of time.

This dedication to using durable materials not only enhances the overall strength and resilience of our cabinets but also provides peace of mind, knowing that whatever your cabinetry needs are, they will maintain its integrity and functionality for years to come.

Rough-Cut Lumber

All our rough cut wood is meticulously machined here in our shop and all proudly sourced from Canada!  Hardwoods like Maple, Walnut, Cherry and Hickory are generally preferred over softwoods for cabinets due to their density and resistance to wear and tear, especially in high-traffic areas. Each piece is carefully hand-selected for its unique wood grain and distinctive features, including colour, luster, and texture, ensuring that you receive only the highest quality materials for your projects.

Our commitment to sourcing only the finest wood from the vast forests of Canada not only supports local suppliers but also guarantees that every item we create is both beautiful and sustainable. 

Alternatively we also deal in exotic woods typically from tropical regions, prized for their unique aesthetics, superior density, and natural durability. We widely used these in fine woodworking applications for their striking appearance and longevity. 

Cabinet  Assembly
