Custom kitchen cabinetry with integrated detailing

Custom Cabinets in Raleigh.

Custom cabinets for new-construction and remodel kitchens across Raleigh, Cary, and Apex, built on moisture-stable boxes so doors keep closing clean well past the two-year mark a production builder's grade rarely reaches.

In short

A new-construction kitchen in the Triangle ships with sealed, conditioned air from day one, but the cabinet box still has to survive a Carolina summer's humidity long after the builder's punch list closes, so Crateworks specs moisture-stable, TSCA Title VI panels built for that life span.

Built for Raleigh’s climate

Raleigh's zone 3A humidity does not spare a brand-new house, and the volume of new construction moving through Cary, Apex, and the rest of the Triangle right now runs mostly on production-grade cabinetry built to a price, not a climate. Boxes on standard particleboard swell at the edges within a few humid seasons regardless of how new the house is around them, and panels have to meet US EPA TSCA Title VI (CARB Phase 2) formaldehyde limits, which matters in a sealed, air-conditioned Triangle home where that air gets breathed daily.

Why it suits Raleigh

A lot of the people building here right now relocated from a market where the finish level ran higher than what a Triangle production builder defaults to, and the gap shows up first in the kitchen. Direct sourcing closes it: the same allowance that buys a builder-grade box buys a fully custom one, soft-close throughout, the layout drawn instead of the one in the model home. Send the plan through /brief and it prices against your actual kitchen, not a builder's spec sheet.

Common questions

Standard particleboard boxes can, even in a brand-new sealed home, within a few humid seasons. We spec a moisture-stable core specifically to avoid that.
They meet US EPA TSCA Title VI (CARB Phase 2) limits, which matters in a sealed, air-conditioned Triangle home where that air gets breathed year round.
That is most of what this order is. Send the kitchen plan through /brief and it prices against a fully custom build, not the production spec a builder defaults to.
We coordinate delivery against your framing and drywall dates so cabinets land ready for install, not sitting in a garage or missing the install window.
