Custom kitchen cabinetry with integrated detailing

Custom Cabinets in Montreal.

Custom cabinets for Montreal kitchens and baths, built on a box that holds its line through the year's full humidity swing and fits a plex or greystone floor plan that was never laid out for a modern kitchen.

In short

A Plateau or Mile End kitchen renovation swings from a humid Quebec summer to bone-dry heated air by January, same as anywhere this cold and wet, but it also usually means fitting a box into a narrow galley pulled out of a century-old plex, not a clean modern footprint. Crateworks specs a stable substrate for that swing and builds to the room's real shape.

Built for Montreal’s climate

Wood moves with humidity, and Montreal puts a cabinet box through the full range, a muggy summer that can swell a poorly sealed door, followed by furnace-dry indoor air once a long Quebec winter sets in. A box built for only one end of that swing eventually shows the other end's problem, doors sticking in July or gapping in February. The fix is a substrate chosen to hold dimension through both seasons, on panels sourced to meet recognized low-formaldehyde emission limits, which matters in a triplex flat sealed tight against the cold for months at a time.

Why it suits Montreal

A kitchen carved out of a converted Plateau or Mile End triplex rarely runs a clean rectangle, a narrow galley footprint, an odd chimney chase, a wall that was never square to begin with are the norm, not the exception. A stock box asks the room to compromise around it; a custom one does the opposite. Going factory-direct puts the right substrate, soft-close hardware, and a layout built to the actual room on a budget close to what a local stock kitchen costs. Send the drawings through /brief and the run comes back as one delivered quote.

Common questions

Both ends matter here. We spec a substrate that holds its dimension through the humid summer and the dry heating season alike, not a build proven for only one half of the year.
Yes, sourced to meet recognized low-emission limits, worth confirming in a sealed triplex flat that stays heated and closed up for a long Quebec winter.
That is the default. Send your kitchen's actual dimensions, chimney chases and odd angles included, and we build to them rather than asking the room to fit a stock cabinet run.
Usually enough to move from a stock box to a fully custom one. Send your layout and we will put the delivered Montreal number next to your local quote.
