Just had home-office cabinets made to my specs and installed. Thoroughly satisfied. Professional, courteous, clean, and easy to communicate with --- as I made changes to the original design directly with the draftsman/owner. Cindy responds to inquiries & emails quickly. The 2 installers were excellent -- cut precisely for electrical wall outlets… coming thru the backs of the cabinets. Doors & drawers hung straight & with even space lines between them. My knobs & pulls were installed, and everything vacuumed before they left. Will have future work done here. 5 stars!

Frontier Cabinets did such a great job on our kitchen. From the first call to Cindy and setting up the appointment, to Rick coming out to measure, and the guys installing everything went according to plan. We are super pleased with the final results. We had a plan and Rick listened to our ideas and then made some suggestions, wow he knows what he… is doing. If you want customized cabinets that are less then the big box stores go see Cindy and Rick at Frontier cabinets, I guarantee you will not be disappointed. They use real wood and give you so many options to make your kitchen look amazing
