No mater where you are in your project we can walk you through each phase of the process.


Are built to order cabinets worth the cost?
When your home requires very specific details, like these vintage cabinet pulls – you need cabinets that are built for you. Moreover, the word “custom” is used pretty broadly in the cabinet industry to describe cabinet lines with limited materials, colors, and door styles. But at McMillan, we believe the word “custom” means more than a few choices. That’s why we prefer to call the work we do “built to order”
Materials and finishes that go together
These wood grain pulls offer a low contrast option and looks great with the grain of these custom finished cabinets. We source hardwood lumber from responsibly managed domestic sources, and select it for grain, color, and stability. Our plywood and sheet materials and adhesives are formaldehyde-free. We use recycled cores whenever practical. We assemble cabinets one at a time, and hand-fit each door and drawer. In short, we build cabinets the right way.
But what really makes our woodwork stand out is the finish. Our expert wood finishers excel in creating authentic traditional effects and finishes, using durable, modern and safe materials and methods. Matching colors and effects is no problem either, so if none of the many samples in our showroom meet your needs, we can create one that does.

Subtle textures that add a richness to the design
McMillan cabinets are hand built using high quality materials. Select hardware that has the subtle textures to add richness to the beautiful cabinets.
You get value with our cabinets. We sell our cabinets directly to you or your builder, avoiding the extra layer of expense built in to the dealer showroom system. Meaning, when you buy from McMillan Cabinetmakers, more of your cabinet dollar will go directly into the cost of producing your cabinets, and less into the cost of selling them to you.
