Navigate design-to-machine process effortlessly with our expertise in industry-specific software, perfect for custom cabinets and cabinet makers.
Touch base with us and introduce yourself! We tailor our services to what your custom cabinets project or your cabinet maker requires from us, rather than having set packages for you to choose from.
Gather your information - site measurements, architectural/building plans, finishes specifications and appliance lists. Send it all to us, the more information the better. You can download our Specifications Sheet to complete as well, to give you an idea of the information we need to accurately complete your custom cabinet plans.
Review and accept our quote. All our projects are quoted prior to commencement to ensure both parties are on the same page. Our quotes also detail the service you receive - design, shop drawings, send to machine, which software we’re proposing to use etc.
We turn around most projects within a few business days (depending on the size and scope). Most kitchens we can have back to you within 2 business days, full size house lots take between 1-2 weeks. You’ll receive watermarked plans initially, to confirm that you’re happy with everything before final payment is made and you receive unmarked drawings that you can pass on to your clients.

Early in the process, we like to spend some time discussing what you require from us and how you envisage your new cabinetry. Send us lots of inspiration photos, what you love about certain styles, what you hate! It helps us to understand how we best design for you. Once we have an understanding of your vision, you’ll receive a comprehensive quote from us, with a breakdown of services/drawings that you’ll receive from us.
Once formally engaged, we will organise a Design Consultation (either onsite or virtually, depending on the type of project we’re working with and where it’s located). During this consultation, we’ll discuss the cabinetry scope in great detail, including desired layouts, finishes, fixtures, hardware and appliances.
Most projects for private clients take 2-4 weeks to put together, including cabinetry design, finishes and fixtures recommendations as well as appliance suggestions. You’ll receive a comprehensive concept document which includes everything you need to take to your chosen builder or cabinet-maker to accurately quote or manufacture, wherever you are in the process.
Don’t have a cabinet-maker yet? We work with some of the best cabinet-makers across Australia, so can recommend you to a trusted and quality cabinet-maker wherever in Australia you are!
We work really hard to ensure the drawings we produce are as accurate as possible. We also make sure to ask as many questions as needed to ensure we have all the information upfront. Our Specifications Sheet helps to cover off most, if not all, the information we need and recommend you take advantage of this worksheet.
However, it’s not always possible to get it 100% right the first time. As such, revisions that are ultimately our fault - we missed something, we incorrectly drew something - will be completed at no cost to you (of course). However, revisions that are due to lack of information, client changes, change of mind, failure to provide details initially or updated site measurements will incur additional costs. These will always be quoted prior to making the change based on an hourly rate with a minimum charge of 1 hour.
