Frequently Asked Questions
What is Custom Cabinetry?
Custom cabinetry is built from scratch around your room — not chosen from a catalogue and adjusted to fit. That means no awkward gaps and no storage that was designed for someone else’s room. The layout, the materials, the finish, and every interior detail are planned around the way you actually live and work in the space.
Usually, yes. Keeping the same layout often saves money because you avoid moving plumbing, electrical, gas lines, or structural elements. Those changes can add a lot to a renovation budget, even before the new cabinetry is installed.
That’s why many homeowners choose to improve the cabinet quality, storage design, and overall look while leaving the main kitchen footprint in place. It can still result in a major upgrade without the added cost of reworking the room.
If the current layout functions reasonably well, staying close to it is often one of the smartest ways to keep a project more manageable. It’s also worth noting that in Ontario, moving plumbing, electrical, or gas lines typically requires permits and licensed tradespeople, which adds both time and cost. Structural changes, such as removing or modifying load-bearing walls, require engineering review and building permits. These requirements aren’t obstacles — they’re there to protect you — but they are important to plan for if a layout change is on the table.
In most kitchens, yes — drawers are easier to live with. With a drawer, everything pulls out toward you, so you can see what you have and reach it without digging around. With a cabinet door and shelf, items tend to get pushed to the back and forgotten.
That difference becomes even more noticeable with pots and pans, food containers, dishes, and other heavier everyday items. Drawers simply make lower storage more accessible.
They’re also easier on your back, since you’re not bending and reaching as much. For many homeowners, that convenience alone makes them worth the extra cost.
A mix of deep drawers, medium drawers, and a few specialized pull-outs often creates a kitchen that feels far more functional than a row of basic lower cabinets.
Yes. Chase Cabinetry also works on select commercial projects across the Niagara region. That can include office cabinetry, reception counters, staff kitchens, and workspace storage. Commercial work often has different needs than residential projects, especially when it comes to durability, traffic, and accessibility requirements.
Because of that, each commercial job is usually considered based on its specific scope. Some spaces need straightforward built-in storage, while others require more specialized design and coordination.
A good layout supports movement, workflow, and access. It places storage where it is actually needed. It avoids dead zones and does not force awkward paths between the sink, stove, and refrigerator.
A good layout makes the kitchen feel easy to use. It supports the way you move through the space, keeps important items close to where they’re needed, and helps everyday tasks feel more natural. You shouldn’t have to work around the room just to make a meal or unload groceries.
In a well-planned kitchen, dishes are near the dishwasher, pots and pans are near the stove, and prep tools are close to your main work area. That kind of planning doesn’t always stand out visually, but you feel it every day.
Clearance matters too. Walkways need enough room for people to move comfortably, especially in busy kitchens or homes with more than one cook. Even small changes in cabinet placement can improve flow in a big way.
A strong cabinet layout doesn’t just fill the room. It helps the room function better.
The best place to start is with a simple, honest look at what isn’t working in your current kitchen. Take a few photos, measure the space as best you can, and make a list of the things you’d like to improve. That might be storage, layout, style, function, or all of the above. It also helps to collect a few inspiration images so you can show the kind of look you’re drawn to.
Once you have that basic information, a conversation with a cabinet professional becomes much more productive. Instead of speaking in general terms, you can start discussing real possibilities for your specific space.
You don’t need every detail figured out before reaching out. You just need a clear starting point.
Yes — in most cases, drawers do cost more. That’s because a drawer involves more construction and more hardware than a basic cabinet door. You need the drawer box itself, the drawer front, quality slides, and more precise installation to make everything work smoothly.
Doors are simpler by comparison. They typically require hinges and shelves, but not the same level of moving hardware or fine adjustment.
Even so, many homeowners still see drawers as one of the best places to invest. They usually make the kitchen easier to use, easier to organize, and more comfortable day to day — especially in lower cabinets.
