Not all RTA Cabinets are the Same

LKN Cabinets and Remodeling is proud to carry some cabinet lines that are RTA (or ready to assemble). We enjoy the fact we can control the assembly and delivery of the finished product to our clients in the greater Charlotte, NC region. LKN Cabinets and Remodeling first starting using RTA cabinets about 8 years ago when we purchased a vanity from Home Depot that was RTA. The assembly seemed awkward, quality weak and time consuming. This lead us down a path of trying to find a quality and traditional assembly required RTA product. It took us a few years but we finally found an American wood product that was being outsourced as an RTA. The quality was excellent but the assembly still not what it could be. However, just over 2 years ago LKN Cabinets and Remodeling joined forces with several little know brand names of RTA cabinets to discover the best quality cabinet with a traditional assembly- glue and screw mainly. Problem solved and the billboard for our company went up.

Of course, we also carry domestic name products such as Timberlake (www.timberlake.com)  and Kabinart cabinets (www.kabinart.net) .

Either route you go we have an affordable option for your next kitchen and bath remodel. Just give me a call at 704-232-5169 or visit our webpage at www.LKNcabinets.com

Some potential examples of the valuable usage these additions can bring are as display units in a formal dining room that might hold various pieces of crystal or china. Or perhaps in a den or family room where different pieces of electronic equipment might take residence. Certainly in a child’s room, various mementos of special significance to the youngster can appear, and in a hallway or foyer, different items of importance to all family members that come into play going from out to in or vice-versa will be easily accessible. Kitchens are also great places to keep items handy and in plain sight that assist in the smooth and efficient operation of that important room.

Why Use Pantry Cabinets?

To store canned foods, plates, and miscellaneous ingredients, many people today resort to using their regular kitchen cabinets. However, there exist such things as pantry cabinets; they help you get more organized in the kitchen by allowing you to store the afore-mentioned items in a different place and to free up some cabinetry space. Not only that, but these cabinets are also fashionable and can serve as a decorative piece by themselves.

The reasoning behind the purchase of a pantry cabinet for most people can be resumed by the fact that they allow you to save up some space, get organized, and will in fact allow you to save money. Thing about it this way: with more storage space, you’ll be able to stow away more resources, which in turn signifies that you can now buy items in bulk, which is a price-saving practice.

But with all the extra storage space, one can’t help but wonder if accessing the different items in there can become a challenge. You’ll be pleased to know that this aspect has already been taken care of with either shallow pantry shelves (allowing you to see everything), or moveable shelves. There are mainly two types of moveable shelves: the first type works exactly like a drawer, allowing you to pull and push the shelf in and out, providing rapid access to whatever you need wherever it is. The second type is found in pantry cabinets built in such a way as to allow the shelves to rotate in a full circle.

The other reason people are get attracted by pantry cabinets, is how they complement the kitchen. Choosing the pantry made out of the right materials with a design matching the rest of your kitchen will go a very long way to creating the atmosphere you’ve always wanted to have. Luckily, pantry cabinetry is available in a plethora of styles, colors and materials, which insures that there will be something for every kitchen out there.
