Do I choose stock, semi-custom, or custom work?
Whether you choose stock, semi-custom, or custom cabinetry depends on what you’re looking for and what your budget is. Stock cabinetry is the most affordable, but it also is the most limited in terms of sizes, styles and shapes available. Semi-custom cabinetry is the middle ground, and is factory-built with many more options for one-of-a-kind possibilities. Completely custom cabinets are the best of the best when it comes to what you get, but it does come with a price.
How do I find the cabinets for me?
Stock cabinets are affordable for a reason – they barely offer any customization for your project, usually leaving you with underwhelming results. Semi-custom and custom cabinets offer you a much wider variety to suit your needs. If you have an oddly shaped space, the installers at ASA would have no problem custom-fitting a nice pantry or shelf system in there, utilizing it to the best of their ability. Wine racks, vertical dividers, lazy Susans, and pullout draws are just some of the options that semi – custom and custom cabinet work offers you.
