The Kitchen Refresh process
New cabinet doors. A coordinated finish. Thoughtful details. See how our cabinet redooring process brings a fresh look to the kitchen you already have.
From the first conversation to the finishing touches
We keep suitable existing cabinet boxes and replace your doors and drawer fronts with new custom fronts. Your local team guides the design, coordinates the work, and helps you understand what happens next.
Explore your goals, finishes, hardware, and project options with your local team.
Usually 6–10 weeks. Your new fronts are made for your kitchen in Bismarck, North Dakota.
Typical cabinet preparation, painting, and installation, depending on project scope.
Manufacturing and on-site work are separate stages. Your local team confirms the schedule for your project.
Start with a free, no-pressure consultation. We’ll talk about what works in your kitchen, what you’d like to change, and the look you want to achieve.
Explore door profiles, colors, finishes, and hardware. This is also the time to discuss optional storage upgrades, cabinet additions, crown moulding, and other project needs.
Consultations begin virtually, with in-home or design studio options coordinated by your local team.
Once you move forward with your project, we measure for your new doors, drawer fronts, end panels, and selected components. Your order is prepared specifically for your existing kitchen.
Your local team confirms the selections and scope before your project moves into custom manufacturing.
We manufacture your custom cabinet doors and drawer fronts in our Bismarck facility. Each order is made for the measurements, profile, and finish selected for that kitchen.
Custom manufacturing usually takes 6–10 weeks. If you’d like your project sooner, ask your local team about an expedite option for an additional fee.
When your components are ready, your local team coordinates the next stage of your refresh.
Your existing doors and drawer fronts are removed, and the cabinet boxes are prepared and painted on site by our team. We use special paint formulas to coordinate the boxes with your selected new fronts.
Want to save on your project?
You can choose to prepare and paint the cabinet boxes yourself. Discuss the DIY option with your local team so the paint selection, preparation, and timing align with your installation.
Before work begins, your team will explain what to clear, protect, or move and what to expect during preparation, painting, and curing.
After the cabinet box finish has cured, we install your new doors and drawer fronts, concealed soft-close hinges, hardware, and the upgrades included in your project.
Your team coordinates installation around the cabinet box finish and any additional work included in your project.
We review the finished details with you so you can enjoy your refreshed kitchen.
Put your investment into the details you see and use every day while keeping cabinet boxes that still work.
A little more clarity
Custom manufacturing usually takes 6–10 weeks. The typical on-site cabinet refresh takes 3–5 days. These are separate stages, and your local team will confirm your complete schedule, including any additional work.
An expedite option is available for an additional fee. Ask your local team about the timing and cost for your order before making plans around an earlier completion date.
Our approach keeps your existing cabinet boxes in place, and your kitchen remains functional during the refresh. Access to particular areas may be limited while preparation, painting, curing, or installation is underway. Your team will explain what to expect for your project.
Choose professional on-site preparation and painting by our team, or DIY the cabinet boxes to save money. Step 4 explains both options.
Your local team will provide preparation instructions for your project, including which drawers or work areas to clear and how to plan around painting and installation. Confirm those instructions before moving cabinet contents or appliances.
Ask about pullouts, trash storage, drawer upgrades, crown moulding, end panels, and cabinet or island additions. Countertop and backsplash options vary by location and scope. Additional work may have a separate schedule.
