Custom Kitchen Cabinets in Tiburon

Cabinet boxes for Tiburon projects are typically constructed from ¾-inch plywood, laminated board, or MDF — we offer cabinet boxes made from high-quality laminated board and plywood. Tiburon's Bay-facing climate — with persistent moisture, fog, and marine air — requires edge-banding on all four component sides as a fundamental moisture protection measure, not just a finish detail. Plywood's dimensional stability and laminated board's sealed surface are both appropriate choices for kitchen cabinetry built to perform in Tiburon's coastal conditions. All panels provide a smooth, durable surface that resists everyday wear and is easy to maintain, making them a practical choice for modern kitchens. We use press-in (dowel) hinges, which prevent screws from loosening over time and significantly extend the lifespan of the kitchen. We edge-band every cabinet component on all sides to fully protect it from moisture. This not only prevents chips and damage at the corners but also ensures a flawless, high-end finish that looks truly professional. Back panels are ¾-inch plywood or laminated board.

Our standard frameless, full-overlay construction produces a clean contemporary look where each door covers the entire cabinet face with no visible frame. For Tiburon homeowners with contemporary Bay-view estates on the Peninsula, older hillside properties in Tiburon Hills, or estate-scale builds in Belvedere overlooking the Bay, we also build face-frame cabinets with inset or partial-overlay doors to complement your home's existing architecture.

Flat-panel slab doors are the most popular choice in Tiburon — the minimal, precise profile suits the contemporary interiors common in Bay-view homes where clean lines and unobstructed sightlines matter. For older hillside properties, Shaker-style doors provide warmth alongside precision. We also build raised-panel doors for traditional spaces and glass-front options for display areas in open-plan great rooms. Materials range from solid hardwood (white oak, walnut, maple) to MDF for painted finishes.

For paint, we apply multiple coats with sanding between layers for a furniture-quality surface. White, light greige, and natural wood in white oak and walnut are popular in Tiburon — finishes that reflect the Bay light and complement the water views rather than distract from them. We can match existing architectural details, stone, or millwork throughout your property.

Soft-close hinges come standard on every project — they prevent door slamming and reduce wear on the cabinet box over time. Undermount drawer slides with soft-close mechanisms handle heavy loads and glide smoothly at full extension. In a Tiburon home where every finish detail is considered, hardware quality matters — Blum and Hettich mechanisms are rated for hundreds of thousands of cycles and maintain their performance over decades, even in coastal-influenced climates.

For Tiburon's larger kitchens and entertainment spaces, we design expanded pantry systems, island cabinetry, appliance garages, built-in wine storage, and wet bars. All hardware comes from Blum, Hettich, and Salice — the standard for precision European kitchen cabinet construction worldwide.
