Storage that doesn't fit how you cook
We ask what you cook and what you keep, then plan an interior for it: knife drawers, sheet-pan slots, a lift for heavy appliances.

When Winfield kitchens need custom cabinets
When a kitchen has odd dimensions, tall ceilings or a style worth matching, built-to-fit cabinets are the honest answer. We measure your Winfield kitchen in detail, send drawings for approval and handle construction, finishing and installation in one job.
Storage needed beyond the kitchen
A beverage station, desk nook or laundry cabinets made alongside the kitchen keeps the finish and door style consistent.
Finish options too limited
Stock lines offer a handful of colors. Custom work can be painted any color you bring us or stained to match wood elsewhere in the house.
Appliances that should disappear
Panel-ready refrigerators and dishwashers need panels made to the maker's specs. We build them to match the doors around them, so the appliances blend in.
Door style or detail you can't find
Certain door details simply aren't sold in standard lines. Custom construction lets us copy or design them.
Odd dimensions that stock sizes can't fill
Off-standard walls are where catalog cabinets look patched together. Building every cabinet to the measurement removes the filler strips and dead space.
A pantry wall that wastes space
A floor-to-ceiling pantry wall sized to the room holds more than a pair of stock tall cabinets with fillers between them.
Small appliances crowding the counter
A dedicated coffee or breakfast cabinet keeps the counters clear. We wire it with outlets and give it a heat-safe interior.
Everything in a custom cabinet project
- Design visit and detailed measuringAn in-home design visit with precise measurements and a list of what each cabinet has to hold.
- Drawings and renderingsElevations and a floor plan show every box, door and drawer before anything is built.
- Building the cabinetsBoxes, doors and drawers built to the approved drawings, with the interiors you planned.
- FinishingPaint or stain applied before delivery, so the finish is even and cured when it reaches your house.
- Tear-out and site prepOld cabinets removed and hauled away, walls patched and floors protected.
- Installation and scribingWe set every box level, fasten it into the framing and fit edges to the walls.
- Hardware and final adjustmentEvery hinge and slide adjusted and the hardware set straight before we call it done.
Finishes and options
Inset vs. full overlay doorsInset doors sit flush inside the frame for a traditional look and need precise fitting; full overlay doors cover the frame for a modern, continuous face.
Painted, stained and two-tone finishesChoose any paint color, a stain matched to your trim, or mix them between perimeter and island.
Plywood boxes and dovetail drawersSturdy plywood cases and dovetail drawers hold up to daily use and moisture far better than stapled particleboard.
Maple, cherry, oak and walnutEach species looks different: smooth maple, warm cherry, open-grained oak and deep brown walnut.
Framed and frameless boxesWe build both: framed for a classic look, frameless for modern slab-door kitchens.

AfterCustom Kitchen Cabinets in a two-story colonial from the 1990s, Winfield
The site: a two-story colonial from the 1990s in Winfield. The kitchen as it was: white thermofoil cabinets peeling at the edges, oak trim. The main complaint was failing cabinets and too little usable storage. The result: built-to-fit cabinetry to the ceiling in charcoal gray with polished nickel pulls and dark soapstone-look quartz counters. Work included design visit and detailed measuring, finishing, plus hardware and final adjustment.

AfterCarol Stream kitchen, two-story colonial from the 1990s: custom kitchen cabinets
This one is a two-story colonial from the 1990s in Carol Stream. The kitchen as it was: honey-oak cathedral raised-panel cabinets with worn finish near the handles, brass knobs. What bothered the owners most: dated cabinets that didn't fit the room or the house. The result: built-to-fit cabinetry to the ceiling in pale sage with brushed nickel bar pulls and warm walnut butcher block counters. The job covered design visit and detailed measuring, finishing, plus tear-out and site prep.

Custom Kitchen Cabinets questions from Winfield homeowners
Do you make vanities, laundry and built-ins too?
We do, and many owners add a vanity or laundry wall to the kitchen order so the finish matches.
Can you match my existing cabinets or trim?
Usually. We can copy a door profile and match a stain or paint color closely; we show you a sample before building.
How long do custom cabinets take?
Most of the time goes into making the cabinets, not installing them. We give you a schedule in writing once drawings are approved.
Inset or full overlay — which should I choose?
Inset doors look traditional and suit older homes but take precise fitting and give slightly less opening. Full overlay is cleaner, more modern and more forgiving.
Do you also install the custom cabinets?
Yes. Our crew installs everything we build, including scribing, panels and trim, so one team answers for the fit.
What is the Winfield building department phone number?
Permits go through Building and Safety / Community Development (Village of Winfield), phone 630-665-1767. When your scope needs one, we prepare the application and schedule the inspections.
Do you work in my part of Winfield?
Yes. Our crews work across Winfield — ZIP 60190, 60185 — and nearby Wheaton, Carol Stream, West Chicago.
