1 of the most common questions we get asked right now about Custom Cabinetry Lead Times

Monday, Oct 25, 2021 12:00 AM

The answer: 2021 has been an unprecedented time for the Cabinet Making Industry. Although we have been repetitively in and out of lockdowns we have carried on working through being that we have been classified as an essential service. Great for us, however being that so many individuals have now been given the flexibility within their workplaces to work from home, less interstate and international travel and restrictions on movement in general – this has given many the opportunity to reflect on their own homes and seek for improvements to make their personal spaces an inviting retreat. That being said along with our repeat customers and builders this adds additional wait times to our busy schedule. We are booking into March 2022 for installations. Our quote times are up to 4 weeks from date of contact.

The thing with small business and maintaining a five star reputation is that if you expand to far you easily lose that reputation. You can no longer over see all facets of the cabinet making process, you can't ensure 110% quality control and we strive hard to be able to deliver that to each and every one of our customers.

We are making small changes, Alyce is now in the office 1 – 2 days a week, we have just commenced an Australian Apprenticeship with Ben our Mature Age Apprentice who comes to us straight from the Royal Australian Navy after serving 6 years with a refrigeration engineering background and is eager to learn our trade with a high attention to detail and we have Mick our Qualified Cabinet Maker and Carpenter who has many years experience in our trade that will oversee our factory from the assembly of custom cabinetry through to installation than we have Barry our Qualified Builder with over 40 years Building expertise. Brad as always will continue to be our point of contact and be with our customers every step of the way to ensure a pleasant custom cabinet making experience for all.

My advice, if you are thinking about new custom cabinetry the sooner you reach out to us the quicker the process, gone are the days you can get custom cabinetry installed within 4 weeks.

We look forward to being able to continue delivering our 5 star approach to all.
