Custom Cabinets in Silver Spring: Kitchen Cabinet Design and More
A good cabinet layout can change the way your home works, and the right material and design can make it look like you did a $150,000 remodel in your kitchen. Unfortunately, it's common to find kitchens that feel cramped, laundry rooms with no upper storage at all, and pantries that are completely unusable. We work with homeowners who want something better. Not just a new look, but smarter function and stronger materials that hold up for many years.
My Closet Guys designs and installs custom cabinet systems built specifically for your home. We work throughout Silver Spring and surrounding areas to design cabinet systems for kitchens, garages, laundry rooms, and more. Our process includes a free in-home consultation, a 3D design you can review in advance, and installation by a team with decades of experience. Call (301) 332-5254 to schedule your consultation.
Custom Cabinet Design in Silver Spring
No two households use storage the same way, and a kitchen that works for one family may be frustrating for another. We build each project from scratch, and we always start with a visit to see your space and hear what you need. We take precise measurements, talk through layout options, and bring samples so you can start visualizing the finished product.
Some projects aim to create more usable space in a small kitchen, while others focus on building garage systems that finally give every tool or bin a place to go. We help you think through layout, shelf spacing, access points, and which features will actually support your routine.
After the visit, we create a full 3D rendering of your cabinet system. You'll be able to see the layout, materials, and hardware before we start building. You're welcome to make changes until everything feels right.
Options for Materials, Finishes, and Hardware
We use durable materials that look good and last. Options include hardwoods like maple, oak, and birch, as well as painted MDF and high-grade laminates. If your goal is low maintenance and clean lines, we'll steer you toward modern finishes with strong resistance to wear. If the space calls for warmth and natural texture, we can work in stained wood with visible grain.
During your consultation, we'll also go through hardware styles. Some clients prefer soft-close drawers with edge pulls. Others want traditional knobs and visible hinges that suit the look of the home. We'll bring finished samples like matte black, brushed nickel, and satin brass so you can see how each one works with the overall design.
How Our Cabinet Systems Compare to Store-Bought Options
Big box cabinets are made in standard sizes and shipped flat to fit any house. That approach might be cheaper upfront, but it often creates awkward gaps and shortens the life of the system. You'll also find yourself limited to a small group of finish and layout options.
We measure and build for your exact space. There's no filler material and no need to compromise on design. The cabinets are assembled in our shop and delivered ready for installation. That means tighter seams, straighter lines, and a layout that feels intentional.
Quick, Clean Installation by a Professional Crew
Our in-house team handles the cabinet installation, checks every drawer and hinge, and leaves your home clean when the job is done. Most projects are wrapped up in a day. During the walkthrough, we'll confirm alignment, spacing, and function so there are no surprises when you start using your cabinets.
Cabinets For Kitchen, Bath, Garage and Much More
We install cabinets throughout the home, depending on what you need. In kitchens, we design around daily flow, cooking habits, and the appliances you already have. In garages, we mount wall cabinets and lockers that keep equipment, seasonal bins, and tools off the floor. For laundry rooms, we often include folding surfaces, broom storage, and upper cabinets that keep everything contained.
Other common projects include dry bars, built-ins for home offices, mudroom lockers, hallway linen cabinets, and custom shelving systems for books or media.
Frequently Asked Questions About Custom Cabinets
How much input will I have on the final design?
Every project includes a full 3D rendering you can review and adjust before anything is built. You'll have input on layout, materials, finish, and hardware.
Do you offer recommendations if I'm not sure what will work?
Yes. Most clients come to us with a space that's not working, even if they don't know exactly what they want. We'll ask questions about how you use the room and help shape the design around those needs. You'll have access to a professional designer, not a showroom salesperson.
What are the advantages of using solid wood versus laminate or MDF?
Solid wood tends to have a longer lifespan and can be refinished later, but it's also more expensive. Painted MDF provides a smooth, modern look without wood grain, and laminate is durable in high-use areas like laundry rooms or garages. We'll help you choose based on your goals and budget.
Will the cabinets be built on-site or off-site?
We build everything in our shop and bring it to your home ready to install. That allows for cleaner assembly, tighter joints, and shorter install times.
Can you match existing trim or cabinetry?
Yes. We've matched existing cabinet styles, crown molding, and hardware in homes throughout Silver Spring. Just let us know what you're trying to coordinate with and we'll bring options.
How long does the full process take?
The design phase usually takes one to two weeks, depending on complexity. Once the design is approved, fabrication and installation typically take another two to three weeks. We'll give you a clear timeline during the consultation.
