Storage space is significantly increased when face frames are eliminated. By using this method there are many more wood species that can be selected for your design. There is no need for solid lumber materials which alot of exotic species are not available. This not only saves trees but also cuts the overall cost of your project.

Kirk Kreations offers face framed cabinets to those who prefer this traditional method over frameless. Face framed cabinets offer the look of "furniture". The possibilities of design and function are endless.
All door styles will accentuate the cabinets looks. Door overlays vary greatly and can change the look of the cabinet. Many design features such as posts, legs, fluted columns, bun feet and so much more will give the look and feel you desire.
Face frame cabinet wood choices are numerous, but are limited to solid lumber availability. By building the cabinets with domestic woods and adding exotics to the door panels the possibilities of designs are increased. The use of multiple species of woods on a project can enhance its looks, this needs to be done with complimentary colors or it can also ruin the project. Schedule a consultation on your project to see in person the wood selections and how your vision can be achieved.
