Every Custom Woodwork Tier Comes With This.

Solid Appalachian Hardwood

Blum Soft-Close Runners

We mount full-extension concealed runners on every drawer. Every piece closes silently and smoothly.

Custom Architectural Profiles

We mill custom crown mouldings, base profiles, and fluted casing. We match your historic woodwork perfectly.

Conversion Varnish Seal

We spray multi-stage conversion varnish in our Indianapolis booth. Our protective topcoats resist heat and moisture.

✓
Sized to Fit Your Cabinet, Exactly
Every cabinet is sized precisely to your space — zero fillers, zero wasted inches.
✗
One-Size Catalog Sizing
Stock cabinets come in fixed modular widths. Your room gets awkward fillers and wasted wall space.
✓
Real Wood, Not a Composite
We build with real oak, maple, cherry, or walnut. These durable domestic hardwoods age gracefully over time.
✗
Pressed-Wood Cores
Stock pieces lean on MDF or particleboard cores that swell, sag and cannot be repaired once damaged.
✓
Your Choice of Style & Finish
Select Shaker, inset, or raised panels in any finish. We match any custom stain or paint color.
✗
Whatever the Catalog Has
Stock options are locked to a handful of finishes, and those finishes change without notice.
✓
Every Door Closes Soft, Every Time
Your cabinet gets Blum soft-close hinges and slides standard — never an add-on, never optional.
✗
Hardware Is an Add-On
Entry-level hinges ship standard; real soft-close hardware costs extra, if it is offered at all.
✓
White-Glove Install for Your Cabinet
Installation is included for your cabinet — our team levels, secures, and finishes it the same day.
✗
Assembly Is Your Problem
Stock pieces ship flat. You either pay an installer separately or spend the weekend building it yourself.

The Story Behind The Tagline

"Cabinets for Every Budget"

Rines Design opened in 2004 with a clear mission. Quality cabinetry should never require an unlimited budget. Twenty years later, that belief shapes every project we take on.

We craft custom vanities for $8,000 and luxury kitchens for $80,000. You receive the same hand-built craftsmanship from our Indianapolis workshop. Our experienced carpenters stand behind every build.

Frequently Asked

Questions, Answered.

Clients ask how our pricing tiers compare in materials and hardware. We answer common investment questions below.

We provide honest pricing options that suit your specific project scope.

Artisan Hardwood Vanities
What hardwood species do you recommend for custom woodwork?

We recommend hard maple, quarter-sawn white oak, American black walnut, and cherry. Each species offers unique grain patterns and exceptional structural durability.

Do you build with solid wood or veneer cores?

We use solid hardwood for all doors, face frames, and drawer boxes. We use furniture-grade veneer core plywood for large cabinet boxes to prevent seasonal warping.

Can you match existing architectural woodwork and moulding in historic homes?

Yes. We cut custom knives to replicate historic trim profiles in older Indianapolis and Zionsville homes.

What is your typical production timeline for custom woodwork?

Most woodwork projects require 8 to 12 weeks from finalized shop drawings to installation. We keep you informed during every phase.
