Cabinet Types

Assembled Cabinet

A kitchen cabinet that arrives at the job site fully constructed, assembled, and ready to install — as opposed to RTA (ready-to-assemble) cabinets that require on-site assembly. Assembled cabinets save significant installation time and labor cost, and their factory-built construction ensures precise joinery, square boxes, and consistent quality. Most semi-custom and custom cabinets ship assembled, while many stock and value-priced lines offer both assembled and RTA options.
