Frequently asked questions

Should I hire a cabinet maker or a kitchen company?

A cabinet maker/joiner builds to order and suits unusual spaces, one-off pieces and custom finishes. A kitchen company offers a designed package, showroom samples and project management. For a straightforward kitchen the company route is smoother; for character properties a joiner often wins.

What's the difference between flat-pack, semi-custom and bespoke cabinets?

Flat-pack (IKEA-style) is cheapest and modular; semi-custom uses standard carcasses with a wider choice of doors and sizes; bespoke is built to your exact space and spec. Bespoke costs the most but handles odd dimensions and features a modular range can't.

How much does custom cabinetry cost?

A single built-in unit like a wardrobe is the entry point; fitted kitchen cabinetry is a mid-range project; full bespoke joinery across a home is the big job. Cost is driven by linear metres/feet of run, the material and finish, and whether it's flat-pack, semi-custom or truly bespoke.

What materials are cabinets made from?

Carcasses are usually MDF, plywood or melamine-faced chipboard; fronts range from laminate and vinyl-wrapped MDF to solid timber and painted MDF. Plywood carcasses and solid or painted-MDF doors last longest; the cheapest chipboard swells if it gets wet.

How long does custom cabinetry take?

Bespoke joinery is made to order, so allow several weeks lead time before fitting even begins; a single built-in might be a day or two to install, a full kitchen a week. The making, not the fitting, is where the timeline sits — confirm lead times up front.

What should a cabinetry quote include?

Carcass material and thickness, door/front material and finish, hardware (hinges, runners, handles) and their brand, worktop if included, delivery, installation, and any templating or making-good. Vague per-unit prices hide big quality differences in materials and hinges.

What does custom joinery cost in the UAE?

A fitted kitchen commonly runs AED 12,000-60,000 in cabinetry; a built-in wardrobe AED 3,000-15,000. Full villa joinery packages reach AED 35,000-150,000 depending on materials and finish.
