Summit is a great option for homeowners who want quality cabinetry with a more streamlined selection process and faster lead times than fully custom cabinetry.

  • Home offices
  • Rental properties


Whether you're remodeling one room or selecting cabinetry throughout your home, Summit offers a practical balance of style, functionality, quality, and value.



Designed to Simplify Your Project

One of the biggest advantages of Summit is simplicity. Instead of navigating the nearly endless choices available with fully custom cabinetry, Summit offers a carefully selected collection of door styles, finishes, cabinet sizes, and accessories.


You still have plenty of options to create a space that feels like your own, but the more streamlined selection process can make choosing cabinetry easier and less overwhelming.



Quality Construction Comes Standard

Summit cabinetry is built with quality materials and dependable construction designed for everyday use.


Standard construction includes:

  • Solid birch door frames and face frames
  • 5/8-inch plywood cabinet boxes
  • 3/4-inch plywood adjustable shelves
  • 5/8-inch solid-wood dovetail drawer boxes
  • Soft-close hinges and drawer glides
  • No MDF, HDF, or particleboard
  • CARB2-compliant materials


Construction details vary slightly by door style. Dove, Charcoal, and Sage feature plywood center panels with 3/4-extension soft-close drawers. All other Summit styles feature 3/4-inch birchwood center panels with full-extension soft-close drawers.



Door Styles & Finishes

Summit offers a curated selection of painted, glazed, and wood-tone finishes, making it easy to find a look that works with your home and style.


  • Painted finishes include White Shaker, Castle Grey, Pebble, Pure, Greige, and Naval.
  • Glazed finishes include Pearl Glazed, Chocolate Glazed, Mocha Glazed, and Creme Glazed.
  • Wood-tone finishes include Java Coffee, Mahogany, Espresso, Hazel, and Butterscotch.


From classic whites and warm neutrals to rich wood tones and deeper colors, Summit offers plenty of variety without making the selection process overwhelming.



Faster Lead Times

One of the biggest advantages of Summit is the faster turnaround compared with fully custom cabinetry.


Quick Ship styles typically ship in 5–7 business days, while most other Summit styles ship in approximately two weeks.


This makes Summit a great option for projects where timing matters, without sacrificing quality construction or style.



Built for Everyday Living

Beautiful cabinetry also needs to work well for everyday life.


Whether you're updating a bathroom, adding storage to a laundry room, finishing a basement, or completing a full kitchen remodel, Summit offers dependable construction and practical options for spaces throughout the home.


With a variety of cabinet sizes, accessories, and organizational options available, Summit can be tailored to the way you use your space.
