What Are Semi-Custom Cabinets? A Guide From Reborn Cabinets

Homeowners working on a kitchen remodel may have trouble finding a budget-friendly option for creating their dream kitchen. Semi-custom cabinets are a great hybrid option for high-quality craftsmanship at an affordable price point. So what are semi-custom cabinets, and how are they different from custom cabinets? By using some stock cabinetry options and only customizing certain elements, homeowners can achieve a unique look for their cabinetry without the price tag of fully custom cabinetry.

At Reborn Cabinets, we specialize in creating and installing beautiful kitchen cabinetry that will last for years to come. We have over 40 years of experience helping homeowners breathe new life into their kitchens. With our line of cabinets, Reborn customers can enjoy a tailored kitchen design. In this article, we’ll break down everything you need to know about The Ultimate Remodeling Experience® we offer when it comes to kitchen cabinetry.

What Are Semi-Custom Cabinets?

Semi-custom cabinets are exactly what the name implies. This versatile remodeling option is a middle ground between fully custom-made cabinets, which are completely built to order, and stock cabinets, which are completely pre-assembled.

Semi-custom cabinets use some pre-built elements but also allow for some adjustments when it comes to design features and dimensions. As a result, you can still choose from a variety of options for your new cabinets.

Custom vs Semi-Custom Cabinet Features

So what’s the difference between custom and semi-custom cabinets? While semi-custom cabinets don’t offer as much design flexibility as fully custom cabinets, there are still plenty of ways to make them your own. Here are the many features you get to choose from:

Cabinet Door Style Options

One of the most noticeable customization options is our selection of cabinet door styles. Reborn offers a wide variety of cabinet door styles for custom cabinets, from modern to traditional. Choose from:

• Cathedral style doors
• Shaker cabinets
• Slab-style cabinet doors
• Glass panels
• Beadboard inserts
• Inset doors

Solid Wood Cabinet Doors

Reborn customers can enjoy the durability and visual appeal of solid wood construction. Our cabinet makers use higher-quality materials to ensure you get the perfect cabinets. Choose from our selection of wood varieties, including:

• Alder
• Cherry
• Oak
• Maple

Storage Options

Semi-custom kitchen cabinets use standard size stock cabinet boxes, so you won’t be able to alter the shape and functionality of your cabinets. However, with custom cabinetry, you can change the layout of your storage solutions to fit your exact specifications. We can also equip your cabinet boxes with custom storage options like wine racks, utensil caddies, and drawer inserts. 

Wood Finish

The right wood finish will highlight the natural beauty of the wood of your cabinet doors. We can apply a solid color finish or a more natural wood stain. For a high-humidity kitchen, a water-resistant thermofoil may also be a good choice.

Why Choose Cabinets From Reborn?

With a kitchen remodeling project, homeowners can choose between cabinet refacing and fully custom cabinets. Custom cabinetry offers some distinct advantages over other options:

• Design flexibility: Custom cabinets allow you to personalize every detail of your cabinetry, and there are many more design options than with stock or semi-custom cabinets. 

• Fast installation time: Semi-custom cabinets don’t take as long as fully custom cabinets to build and install.
