In general there are two ways to buy new cabinets for your home: as prefabricated units that you install on your own, or you can have a professional cabinetmaker build and install custom units. Of course, custom units will be more expensive than prefabricated units. This article will explain 4 reasons why you should make the extra investment and get custom cabinets for your home.

1. Custom Cabinets Are More Durable

Most people are drawn to custom cabinets because they are made out of higher quality woods and hardware. Prefabricated cabinets are made out of cheaper, lighter woods. These cabinets are often made out of particle board with a laminated finish. Also, the hardware (the hinges, handles, and sliders) are made out of lighter and less dependable metals. Prefabricated cabinets will not last as long as custom cabinets.

Custom cabinets are also more durable because they are installed directly into the wall. They are securely attached to the studs inside the drywall, so the cabinet pretty much becomes part of the room

2. Custom Cabinets Fit Your Room

Custom cabinets are also ideal because they are custom-made to fit into your room. Not all cabinets are installed along flat walls. If you can have a cabinet custom designed to fit oddly shaped rooms, you will have a much more stylish cabinet. This will also make your cabinet more space efficient.

3. Custom Cabinets Fit Your Style

When you design the layout of your cabinets you also get to design the color and style of it. This is a great way to design a cabinet that fits in with the style and color of other wooden components in your home, like furniture, door frames, baseboard, crown molding and hardwood floors. A well-designed cabinet will fit into your home style and bring cohesion to your rooms.
