Factors That Affect Kitchen Cabinet Costs

If you are planning to install new cabinets in your kitchen, you will need to make several decisions regarding their design, material, size, color and finish. All of these factors influence the total cost of the cabinets. Learn more about them in this post. 

Stock vs. Custom Kitchen Cabinets

For homeowners looking for standard low-cost cabinets, stock cabinets are the go-to option. These cabinets are usually more affordable than custom cabinets. They are also often readily available, so you don’t have to wait weeks for their delivery.

Design

Kitchen cabinets can be either framed or frameless. Framed cabinets are the traditional choice, with flat front frames to install the doors on. Frameless cabinets are contemporary-style cabinets without visible rails. This option is more customized, thus making it more expensive than framed cabinets.

Material

The kind of material you choose also affects the overall expense of kitchen cabinets. Wood, wood veneer, laminate and stainless steel are some of the materials you can find on the market. Wood varies in price range. Maple, for instance, is the favorite for custom work and the most expensive one.

Size

Kitchen size also affects kitchen cabinet costs. An average-sized kitchen with 25 linear feet of cabinets costs less than a larger kitchen.

Color and Finish

On the market, you’ll find stock and semi-custom cabinets in various colors and finishes that you can choose from. If you want custom colors, finishes or stains, prepare to pay more because of the additional materials and labor involved.
