Frequently Asked Questions
What cabinet hardware and materials does Windsor Plywood carry?
Windsor Plywood carries cabinet hardware including Blum hinge and drawer systems, Hickory Hardware pulls and knobs, Richelieu handles and slides, and cabinet-grade plywood and MDF sheet goods for cabinet box construction. The selection supports both full cabinet builds from raw materials and hardware upgrades to existing cabinetry.
What is the best material for cabinet boxes?
Three-quarter inch cabinet-grade plywood is the industry standard for cabinet box sides, tops, bottoms, and shelving in quality cabinetry. MDF is an alternative for painted flat-panel components where its smooth, consistent surface is a benefit. Particleboard is common in production cabinetry but is heavier than plywood and less resistant to moisture. For high-quality custom work, plywood provides the best combination of strength, screw-holding capacity, and moisture resistance.
What hinge system does Windsor Plywood carry for cabinet doors?
Windsor Plywood carries Blum CLIP top hinges with BLUMOTION soft-close technology. These are European-style 35mm cup hinges compatible with both frameless and face-frame cabinet construction with appropriate adapter plates. Blum hinges are adjustable on three axes after installation, allowing doors to be aligned precisely without removing the door from the cabinet.
How do I choose cabinet hardware finish for my kitchen?
Match cabinet hardware finish to the dominant metal in the kitchen — faucet, appliance trim, and light fixtures. Matte black and brushed gold suit contemporary kitchens. Brushed nickel and satin chrome work in transitional spaces. Oil-rubbed bronze and antique brass suit traditional and heritage kitchens. Consistency within the space is more important than matching other rooms.
Can Windsor Plywood supply everything needed for a full kitchen cabinet build?
Yes. Windsor Plywood carries the cabinet-grade plywood and sheet goods for box construction, edge banding, Blum hardware systems, and cabinet pulls and knobs — the primary materials required for a custom cabinet build.
