You probably already know that you can choose between semi-custom and custom cabinets when ordering cabinets for your kitchen. You might have decided on custom cabinets specifically so that you will have more options when designing and installing the cabinets in your home. However, you still might not be totally sure of what all of your choices will be. These are some of the things that you will need to choose when ordering and installing custom kitchen cabinets in your home.

1. How Many Cabinets Do You Want?

First of all, you will need to determine how many cabinets you want to install in your kitchen. Think about how you use your kitchen; if you have a lot of nice dishes or pots and pans, for example, you may want to make sure that you have plenty of cabinets for storing these items. If you don't have a very big pantry, you can choose to have plenty of large cabinets installed in your kitchen, which can provide you with ample storage space for pantry ingredients. In addition to determining how many cabinets you want, you will also need to decide what size you want your cabinets to be and how you want to set them up.

2. How Many Drawers Do You Want?

In addition to configuring your cabinets, you will also need to determine how many drawers you want to install in your kitchen. Many people find that there aren't enough drawers in their kitchen; after all, drawers can sometimes be handier than cabinets when it comes to kitchen storage. You may want to keep this in mind when coming up with your design.

3. What Style Do You Prefer?

Cabinets can be made in lots of different styles, whether you prefer a modern look or something a bit more traditional. Think about the overall look that you want to create in your kitchen, and compare the different styles of cabinets that are available so that everything is cohesive. 

4. What Color Do You Want?

In addition to choosing the right style for your custom kitchen cabinets, you will also need to choose the right color. Some people like the look of crisp white kitchen cabinets. However, you can choose light or dark stain to achieve the wood look that you might prefer. Consider looking at a few color swatches and examples of cabinets in other people's kitchens to get an idea of what you like. Then, you can choose the color that will complement the look of the rest of your kitchen.
