KraftMaid Modern Kitchen Cabinets – Where Craftsmanship Meets Contemporary Design

Uncompromising Construction & Over 78 Quality Points

To begin with, we build every cabinet with an obsession for detail. More than 78 quality points go into each unit. All-plywood construction forms the foundation of our cabinet boxes. For stability during shipping, we also rely on I-beam construction. An extraordinary 2,500 pounds is what our base cabinets can support without cracking, while wall cabinets exceed 1,300 pounds. In addition, solid-wood hang rails and thicker back panels work together to ensure rock-solid dependability.

Superior Materials & Furniture-Grade Joinery

Beyond standard construction, only the finest hardwoods make their way into our collections—Alder, Cherry, Hickory, Maple, and Oak. Rigorous specifications guide our sourcing for each wood type. Specifically for painted finishes, we engineer our EverCore doors and drawer fronts. Under extreme pressure, we form these components by compressing wood fibers. As a result, this process effectively minimizes shrinking with temperature changes. Exceptional strength also comes from cope and stick or mitered joinery. From 3/4-inch solid wood, we construct our drawer boxes with dovetail joinery. Furthermore, taller items fit comfortably without tipping, thanks to our deep 4-inch-high sides.

The DuraKraft Plus Finishing System – Beauty That Lasts

When it comes to aesthetics, our finishing process brings modern elegance to life. Through a meticulous 14-step process, we ensure consistent beauty across every piece. Two coats of catalyzed enamel paint go onto our painted finishes, and we apply an ultraviolet-cured sealant to reduce fissure lines. For stained finishes, up to eight coats receive our careful hand-application. By doing so, we achieve proper depth—a step many manufacturers choose to skip. Against 48 different substances, we rigorously test the DuraKraft Plus finish. Even after 350 hours of UV exposure, our paints remain fade-resistant. Moreover, from years of experience, our master finishers have developed and customized their techniques.

Intelligent Storage & Effortless Functionality

In the same way, we pair beauty with practical function. Whisper Touch hinges with soft-close operation come standard on all our cabinets. To 200,000 open-close cycles—eight times the industry standard—we test these hinges. Up to 90 pounds is what our drawer glides can hold, and we design them for full-extension access. Without sagging, our shelves support 15 pounds per square foot. Compared to competitors, our full-depth shelves increase usable storage by 25%. Furthermore, from drips and spills, our CoreGuard sink bases resist damage effectively. In addition, forward-slanted molded bottoms direct leaks for early detection.

Modern Style, Endless Possibilities

Furthermore, remarkable flexibility comes from our modern collection. Over 100 door styles and more than 45 finishes are what we offer to our customers. Barley—a contemporary light tone—and Slate, a rich nearly black finish, rank among our popular stain choices. For painted options, we introduce Vanilla Smoke and Hearthstone as complex neutrals. Through our Essential Earthtones collection, we also bring nature-inspired hues like Muted Moss. Warm White uppers paired with Shortbread-stained lowers create the two-tone looks we design. Consequently, any aesthetic vision can be achieved with KraftMaid’s adaptability.

Smart Shipping & Lifetime Assurance

Finally, perfect condition is what we guarantee for every cabinet arrival. With eight EPS foam corner protectors, our cartons now feature 2.5 times thicker cushioning. To confirm packaging effectiveness, we drop-test every package we send out. Directly from production into a waiting truck, we move finished cabinets, thereby minimizing handling damage. At more than 2,000 control points, we review every order throughout assembly. At each stage, certified inspectors conduct careful examinations. As a result, for a lifetime of everyday use, we build KraftMaid cabinets. Accordingly, a limited lifetime warranty backs every purchase we make.
