Pre Assembled Kitchen Cabinets

What Are Pre-Assembled Kitchen Cabinets?

Pre-assembled kitchen cabinets are pre-built cabinets ready for you to install on-site.

Are Pre-Assembled Kitchen Cabinets Good Quality?

The quality of pre-assembled kitchen cabinets depends on two things: the materials and techniques used by the manufacturer, and the skills of the person who assembled the cabinet. The manufacturer does not always do the assembly themselves. The pre-assembled kitchen cabinets available here at Online Cabinets Direct are of the highest quality because we use only the best materials and construction methods.

Are Pre-Assembled Kitchen Cabinets Easy to Install?

Whether or not installation is “easy” depends on your skills and experience, but objectively we can say it’s not complicated. The instructions to follow are simple. For many people, the most difficult part is simply that some of the cabinets can be large and awkward.

Can Pre-Assembled Kitchen Cabinets be Customized?

Pre-assembled cabinets are limited in the amount of customization they can receive. Color or finish, door style, and style of hardware may be available customization options for some pre-assembled cabinets, but deeper customization (such as changing the cabinet depth) requires alterations to be made before assembly. However, not all customization options are available for all cabinets because our selection is so large that you are likely to find a different cabinet that matches your needs rather than having to get customizations on a specific one.

How do Pre-Assembled Kitchen Cabinets Compare to Ready-to-Assemble (RTA) Cabinets?

At Online Cabinets Direct, the pre-assembled and RTA cabinets we sell are the same in materials and quality. We do not stock anything that uses inferior materials, and our pre-assembled cabinets are built from the same RTA kits we also sell. Beyond that, the main differences between pre-assembled cabinets and RTA cabinets involve price. Assembly comes with a charge for labor, and shipping will cost more because a pre-assembled cabinet is much more awkward to ship than an RTA flat pack. The final difference is that pre-assembled cabinets are quicker to install because you don’t have to assemble them yourself. If you are buying from us you will still get superior pricing and quality regardless of what you choose; it just comes down to whether RTA or pre-assembled works better for your specific situation.

Are Pre-Assembled Kitchen Cabinets Suitable for DIY Installations?

Yes! Installing pre-assembled kitchen cabinets is not a difficult DIY job, but sometimes the size of certain cabinets can make them awkward for some people. You may need a helper. If you are into DIY projects you are likely to already have all the tools you need, and if not they can be rented from some hardware stores if an outright purchase doesn’t appeal to you.
