Cabinets Designed Around the Way You Cook

Kitchen cabinets define both the look and functionality of your kitchen more than any other element. Custom cabinets are designed specifically for your space—maximizing every inch of storage, accommodating your specific appliances, and creating the exact aesthetic you envision, whether that's a warm traditional kitchen with inset doors and beaded frames or a sleek contemporary space with flat-panel doors and integrated handles.

Lion Construction Management designs, fabricates, and installs custom kitchen cabinets across NYC and Long Island. We build cabinets from premium materials—solid hardwood face frames, dovetailed drawer boxes, plywood cabinet bodies, and soft-close hinges and slides as standard. Our cabinet designs include custom interior organizers, pull-out trash systems, spice drawers, tray dividers, and corner solutions that eliminate wasted space.

We handle the complete cabinet process—kitchen measurement, design development with 3D renderings, material and finish selection, fabrication coordination, professional installation with precise leveling and alignment, and hardware mounting. Your cabinets are built to your kitchen, not adapted from standard sizes.

What's Included

Custom Door Styles

Shaker, flat-panel, inset, beaded inset, raised panel, and specialty profiles—in hardwood, painted MDF, or premium thermofoil, designed to your aesthetic.

Premium Construction

Solid hardwood face frames, 3/4" plywood boxes, dovetailed soft-close drawers, adjustable shelving, and full-extension slides standard on every cabinet.

Interior Organization

Pull-out shelves, lazy Susans, tray dividers, spice pull-outs, utensil organizers, pull-out trash/recycling, and custom drawer inserts designed for your workflow.

Custom Sizing

Cabinets built to your kitchen's exact dimensions—no filler strips, awkward gaps, or compromised layouts. Every cabinet fits as if the room were built around it.

Specialty Cabinets

Appliance garages, wine storage, display cabinets with glass doors, open shelving, and tall pantry units with roll-out trays and adjustable shelving.

Finish Options

Painted finishes in any color, natural wood stains, glazed and distressed looks, two-tone combinations, and specialty finishes including cerused and whitewashed.

Why Custom Kitchen Cabinets Matter

Kitchen cabinets are the largest functional element in your kitchen — they define storage capacity, workflow efficiency, and visual impact. Semi-custom cabinets from major manufacturers offer limited modifications at premium prices. Fully custom cabinets are designed from scratch to your kitchen's exact dimensions, your storage needs, and your aesthetic preferences. That means full-height uppers that reach the ceiling (no dust-collecting soffits), perfectly sized pull-outs for your specific items, and seamless integration with appliance panels and countertops. Lion Construction Management builds custom cabinets with dovetail drawer construction, soft-close hardware, and paint or stain finishes applied in controlled conditions for a factory-quality result installed with on-site precision.

Custom Kitchen Cabinets, Answered

Custom kitchen cabinets typically range from $20,000–$60,000+ depending on kitchen size, wood species, door style, finish, and interior accessories. A standard 10x10 kitchen in painted shaker style starts around $18,000–$25,000; a large kitchen in walnut with full accessories can reach $50,000–$80,000. Call (917) 575-1306 for a detailed estimate.

Custom kitchen cabinet fabrication typically takes 6–10 weeks after design approval. This includes material ordering, construction, finishing, and quality control. Installation adds 3–5 days for a standard kitchen. We begin the fabrication process early in your renovation timeline to coordinate with other trades.

Custom cabinets are built entirely to your specifications—any size, any configuration, any finish. Semi-custom cabinets offer some modification options but start from standard sizes and configurations. Custom eliminates filler strips, awkward gaps, and layout compromises that semi-custom requires.

Yes. We install all cabinet hardware—pulls, knobs, hinges, and soft-close mechanisms. We use templates for consistent placement across all doors and drawers, and can provide hardware samples for your selection before ordering.
