Manufacturers of stock cabinets
have come a long way in the past
few years. While stock cabinets are
still limited in size, they are available
in a new range of shapes and
styles. A creative remodeler, along
with a skilled finish carpenter, can
successfully complete even the
most sophisticated projects using
stock parts. The key to keeping
costs down while creating a
custom look is to familiarize yourself
with the many accessories and
options cabinet manufacturers
offer. A good way to do this is by
reading the manufacturers'
brochures and talking to the local
dealers.
Most companies offer decorative
moldings, end panels, shelving,
valances, and glass doors, all
designed to complement various
cabinet lines. Spice drawer inserts,
