What is big deal –Particle Board versus Plywood ?

If you have ever paid attention to the television commercials you see or print

ads about kitchen cabinets, they very rarely ever talk about what the cabinet

is actually made of!!  They will sell you on the look or design of the cabinet,

but rarely ever mention what the structure consists of.  For many this may not matter… afterall it’s the outside that everyone sees. For some the price may not be worth the upgrade… while others may not be able to afford it.

Most cabinetry is in fact made with particleboard or similar pressed product but there is a difference.  This can have a HUGE

impact on the durability and life span of

your kitchen over many years.   Both particle board and plywood don’t like water but just a small leak can ruin lower grade particle board cabinets.

Ask your sales rep to tell you what the upgrade cost would be if you want the best “box”.

Just Starting – Need some Guidance?

Investing in new kitchen cabinets can be a costly and time consuming process. 

Not only are there literally thousands of different styles, colors, and inishes,

but there is also a wide variance in prices, brands, and construction materials.  

Not all cabinets are made the same, and price doesn’t always dictate quality!

LKN Cabinets and Remodeling offers FREE in-home consultations to help educate buyers on the costs associated with remodeling your kitchen. We also inform buyers on all the different choices and ultimately what is the best choice for you!

We carry numerous brands of cabinets from affordable RTA (ready to assemble) cabinets to semi-custom cabinets.

Don’t buy cabinets based on brand name !

A brand name doesn’t always translate into a quality product.   Unfortunately

the big box stores and the large cabinet manufacturers they deal with do a very

good job of marketing and selling you on a name, rather than what the cabinets

are actually made of.  Don’t be tricked into buying a higher priced cabinet just

because it is a recognizable name.  Often times that same cabinet line is also

available under a generic name online or at smaller home improvement stores.

When shopping at different locations,  some companies will intentionally change the name of

a cabinet line to try to sell them at a higher price.  Just because you change the

name from Mocha Shaker to Espresso Black doesn’t mean that you can charge

a higher price!  Compare the features, quality, and materials before buying any

kitchen cabinets.
