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 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.
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 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 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'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 is kitchen cabinetry priced in Malaysia?
Often by the foot run, roughly RM200-800 per foot depending on material and finish. A full kitchen cabinet job commonly runs RM8,000-40,000; a built-in wardrobe RM2,000-11,000.
