Custom Cabinets

· ·

Custom pantry cabinets. Built on site in Wellington, CO. Builder/ Serenity Homes of Northern Colorado.

At JEM Carpentry we build and fit our own custom cabinets as well as fit cabinets made by other manufacturers. The photos below are a mixture of both our custom cabinets and cabinets made by others that we fitted.

There are a lot of ways to build a cabinet. Even a lot of good ways! The process we use will depend on the cabinet and the situation, though in this instance we used a dado & glue joint construction for the box and drawers, and loose mortise and tenons to build the face frame. We use 3/4”, 1/2” and 1/4” plywood and 3/4” S4S lumber to build our cabinets.
Starting a new cabinet build! This is a built in dresser for a local custom home builder. At 48” tall and over 70” long, it’s a beast of a cabinet! All of our plywood and S4S lumber is staged out to be milled.
Red Oak Slab Cabinet Doors. 3/4” Red Oak Plywood & Red Oak Edge Banding.
These 1/2” steel countertop brackets supplied by the builder did not have any holes drilled for screws. Keep scrolling to see how we did it!
We brought our small drill press on site to drill 1/4” holes with a 1/2” countersink.
