About This Service

Your Spec Sheet, Our Shop Floor

We work as an architectural millwork partner for designers and architects taking on bespoke residential and boutique commercial projects. Send us your drawings or material specifications and we'll turn them into custom wood shop drawings, then build from them in our own Indianapolis shop.

Trade pricing, a single project contact, color and species matching, and shop drawings checked against your construction set before a single board gets cut. Your client sees a finished room, not the joinery underneath.

What's Included

Every Designer Custom Woodwork Project Comes With This.

Trade Pricing Program

Transparent designer-only pricing with margin protection built in.

Custom Wood Shop Drawings

CAD shop drawings built from your specifications, checked against the construction set.

Species & Stain Matching

Match any wood species, stain or paint call-out — samples sent on request.

One Project Contact

A single point of contact from first spec to final install day.

Locked-In Lead Times

Shop schedule commitments so your construction timeline holds.

White-Glove Install Crew

Branded crew, dust control and a final walkthrough with your client present.

Craftsmanship in Detail

Shop Drawings Built to Hold Up.

A design only reads as intended if the joinery behind it is right. That's why we build from your wood specifications with dovetailed drawer boxes, scribed-in fillers and hand-rubbed finishes, instead of value-engineering the details out once the drawings leave your desk. What you specify is what gets built.

The Real Difference

Custom vs Stock — No Contest.

See exactly why homeowners who choose custom never look back — and what you sacrifice when you settle for less.

✓
Built to Your Exact Dimensions
Every cabinet sized precisely to your walls — zero fillers, zero dead space.
✗
Standard Fixed Sizes Only
Filler strips and awkward gaps wherever your walls aren't a perfect modular multiple.
✓
Solid Hardwood Construction
Oak, maple, cherry, walnut — real wood that lasts generations and gets better with age.
✗
Particleboard & MDF Cores
Swells with moisture, crumbles under heavy loads, and cannot be refinished when worn.
✓
Your Choice of Style & Finish
Shaker, inset, raised panel — any door profile, any stain or paint color imaginable.
✗
Limited Catalog Options
Pick from whatever's in stock. If it's discontinued next year, matching becomes impossible.
✓
Soft-Close on Every Door & Drawer
Premium Blum hardware standard — silent, smooth, and backed by decades of performance.
✗
Hardware Sold Separately
Basic budget hinges included; quality hardware is an upsell that quickly erases the "savings."
✓
Professional Installation Included
Our craftsmen handle everything — level, plumb, and finished beautifully on the first day.
✗
DIY Assembly Required
You pay extra to hire an installer — or spend your weekend wrestling with flat-pack instructions.

Every Cabinet is Backed by Our Lifetime Craftsmanship Guarantee

Solid Wood Construction

We never use hollow particleboard or cheap MDF box construction. Every cabinet that leaves our shop is built from premium hardwood and furniture-grade plywood.

Soft-Close on Every Door

Premium Blum soft-close hinges and drawer slides are standard on every single cabinet — not an upgrade, not an add-on. Silent. Smooth. For life.

Free Adjustments for Life

Houses settle. Seasons change. If any door or drawer needs adjusting years down the road, we come back and make it right — free of charge, no questions asked.
