Quality Materials, Exceptional Results
We offer a curated selection of premium hardwoods, each chosen for its strength, appearance, and suitability for fine cabinetry.
Here’s a quick guide to our most popular species:
Maple
Smooth-grained and versatile, maple offers a clean, contemporary look that finishes beautifully. It’s ideal for painted finishes but equally attractive with light stains. A favorite for modern and transitional kitchens.
Red Oak
Known for its prominent grain and warm tone, red oak delivers a classic cabinet aesthetic. Durable and traditional, it’s a popular choice for spaces seeking character with a timeless feel.
Alder
With a soft grain and subtle texture, alder is a lightweight hardwood that stains well to mimic more expensive species. Its consistent tone makes it a popular, budget-friendly choice for warm, rustic designs.
Character Alder
This variation includes natural knots and mineral streaks, adding visual interest and a handcrafted, organic feel to any space. A top pick for rustic or casual cabinet designs.
Hickory
One of the hardest domestic woods, hickory is known for dramatic color variation and strong grain contrast. It’s ideal for clients who want bold, natural beauty and extreme durability.
Character Hickory
Combines the strength of hickory with its most interesting natural features — knots, streaks, and grain shifts. Perfect for cabins, lodges, or anyone wanting a truly unique aesthetic.
White Oak
Durable and dense, white oak has become a designer favorite for its tight grain and subtle texture. It takes stain beautifully and offers a clean-yet-earthy appeal in both modern and traditional kitchens.
Quarter Sawn White Oak
Quarter sawing enhances stability and reveals a beautiful flake pattern across the grain. This species is prized for craftsman-style cabinetry and adds distinctive texture and character to refined spaces.
Rift Sawn White Oak
Rift sawing creates a straight, linear grain ideal for modern, high-end designs. Its consistency and elegance make it a top-tier option for sleek, minimal cabinetry with a luxury finish.
