How Contractors Can Order Kitchen Cabinets Online in Ontario

Contractors ordering cabinets for renovation and construction projects need more than a cabinet price. A reliable order also requires a verified cabinet list, appliance openings, finishing pieces, selected construction and door finishes, and a clear delivery or installation plan.

Start with measurements or a cabinet schedule

If a cabinet schedule already exists, identify the cabinet codes, widths, heights and quantities needed for the project. If the project is still at the field-measure stage, provide wall dimensions, ceiling height, openings, appliance sizes and the intended kitchen layout.

Contractors can send drawings, measurements and project files to ShopKitchens for review.

Choose the cabinet-box construction

Confirm the required box material before pricing the order. ShopKitchens' cabinet system includes particle-board and plywood configurations depending on the cabinet and selection. The choice affects project cost and should remain consistent with the project's scope and client expectations. See Particle Board vs Plywood Kitchen Cabinets for a practical comparison.

Select the door style and finish

Door selection should be made early because finish and door construction can affect the final cabinet price. For two-tone kitchens, clearly identify which cabinets receive each finish. Review cabinet materials and door styles before the order is finalized.

Account for finishing components

A complete cabinet order frequently includes more than cabinet boxes. Check the layout for exposed end panels, refrigerator panels, dishwasher panels, fillers, toe kicks, crown or riser details, valances and other trim. Missing finishing pieces can delay an otherwise complete installation.

Confirm cabinet storage and specialty items

Identify drawer bases, waste-bin pull-outs, spice pull-outs, Lazy Susan corners, pantry roll-outs, open shelves, wine racks and appliance cabinets before the cabinet list is approved. Browse cabinet organizers and appliance cabinets for available configurations.

Decide between RTA, assembly and installation

Ready-to-assemble cabinets can simplify transportation and give contractors control over assembly and site scheduling. Depending on project location and scope, cabinet assembly, delivery and installation options may also be available. Review Assembly & Installation and Shipping & Delivery before confirming the project schedule.

Verify the order before production or fulfillment

Before approving the final order, cross-check the cabinet list against the plan and field dimensions. Confirm door swing clearances, corner cabinet requirements, appliance specifications, fillers, panel quantities and upper-cabinet heights. A final verification step is generally less expensive than correcting an ordering error on site.
