About the Traditional line

Traditional cabinets are framed RTA cabinets with solid birch doors and face frames (Antique White doors are HDF) on a 5/8" A-grade plywood box with wood veneer. Every color has concealed 6-way adjustable soft-close hinges, solid wood dovetail drawer boxes on full-extension soft-close undermount glides, and metal cam-lock connectors.

The 14 colors come in two construction groups. Group 1 has a natural wood interior and 3/4" shelves and drawers - plan skin panels for exposed sides. Group 2 has an interior finished to match the door. Classic White is half overlay; all other colors are full overlay.

Important: Traditional cabinets are special order and final sale - no exchanges or returns. Some mouldings, posts, valances and corbels are made in certain colors only; send us your list and our Pro team confirms availability before you order.
