Steps for Designing Your Kitchen Cabinets
Pre-plan the designing of your kitchen cabinets for stepwise progress of your kitchen remodeling. Here are the main steps and processes to design your kitchen cabinets.
1. Design a layout
Plan a layout for your kitchen based on your needs and goals as the first step toward your dream kitchen renovation. You don’t have to draw a flawless kitchen layout; only a rough one with a pencil on paper will suffice. Make sure your template is tidy and resembles the image of your ideal kitchen that you have in your head. Focus more on the kitchen cabinets than anything else when planning the layout of your kitchen. With the actual number of cabinets you want in your kitchen, draw the cabinets in the proper place and location.
2. Choose the material
Kitchen cabinets are made from a variety of materials such as plywood, MDF, strong hardwood, and so on. Although plywood is the least expensive of the materials, we recommend that you do not skimp on the quality of the material for your kitchen cabinets. If you have enough money to spend on kitchen cabinets, instead of choosing a low-cost material, choose solid hardwood, which is a long-lasting option. Choose from a variety of hardwoods such as birch, maple, oaks (red or white), pine, and hickory for your solid wood.
3. Design of cabinets
After the inside (material) of the cabinets, concentrate on the outside of your kitchen cabinets. Surf the internet for the best trendy kitchen cabinet designs, either they are modern or vintage. Take a screenshot of each design you like for your kitchen cabinets and shortlist at least 2-3 designs among all and mark them with numbers according to your preference. This numbering will make your hired carpenter prioritize your preferences and work according to your requirements.
4. Select the color
The cabinets can be painted any color you like, like white, black, red, and even yellow. Just make sure it doesn’t interfere with the rest of the room’s color scheme. Consider the following considerations when selecting a color for your kitchen cabinets:
- Walls: when choosing the color for the cabinets of your kitchen, you have to pay huge attention to the color of your kitchen walls. Choose a contrasting or matching color with the kitchen walls or let’s say that you can simply go for any color that looks attractive with your kitchen walls.
- Design: the design of the cabinets also matters a lot while selecting the color because not every color suits every type of cabinet design. Choose the color according to the selected designs of your kitchen cabinets.
5. Make a list
Make a list of all of the above features you want in your kitchen cabinets, including the material and number of cabinets, color, and style. If you’re not sure about anything, like the color or design of the cabinets, put a number next to it in the list. To learn how this list will assist you, proceed to the next step.
6. Hire a professional
Contact a few carpenters, specifically cabinet makers, now that all has been settled upon and all of the plans have been finalized. Take price quotes from each of them and hire the one who offers the most reasonable prices, has the highest reviews, and has the most experience. Give him the planned layout and detailed requirements list, and keep a copy for yourself. You’ll have proof of what you hired him for and what he achieved in the case of an emergency.
7. Organize the cabinets
Finally, your kitchen cabinets are ready to be used, so organize the inside of the cabinets with your crockery and supplies now.
