Premium Custom Kitchen Cabinets Built to Last

Premium Materials & Construction

We don’t compromise on what you don’t see. Cabinet-grade plywood and solid wood construction means durability, moisture resistance, and cabinets that perform beautifully for decades.

  • Cabinet-Grade Plywood: Multi-ply cross-laminated veneer core construction for stability and strength
  • Solid Wood: Premium hardwood for frames, drawers, and high-visibility areas
  • Why it matters: Built to last decades, not years. Resists warping, maintains quality through moisture and temperature changes.

Professional Finishing Options

Your cabinets are only as beautiful as their finish. We offer multiple finishing options, all executed with precision and quality.

Professional Painted Finish

Custom color matching with Sherwin-Williams paint. Any color, any finish—matte, satin, or gloss. Full custom color capability means your kitchen matches your vision exactly.

Wood Veneer Options

Real wood veneers showcase authentic grain and warmth. Premium veneers over stable cores for the beauty of solid wood without the cost or weight concerns.

Premium Hardware & Mechanics

Quality hardware makes the difference between cabinets that work beautifully and those that feel premium. We use only top-tier brands.

  • Trusted Brands: Blum, Richelieu, and Hettich—premium hardware engineered for residential and commercial standards
  • Soft-Close Mechanisms: Whisper-quiet operation with premium 3D adjustability (height, side, and depth)
  • Full-Extension Drawer Slides: Access every inch of storage with smooth, synchronized movement
  • What you feel: Premium functionality that tells you these cabinets were built to last

Trusted by Homeowners and Professionals

Universal Countertops were recommended by a friend because they used them and the finished job was very good as well as the workmanship. I had 2 other companies quote and Universal was better. We decided to use them and from start to finish they were very good and we are extremely happy with the results. Due to other contractor issues we had to have them come back and modify some things and they continued to be supportive. I would recommend Universal Countertops to anyone! Steven Proud
WOW. The service and customer care we received was phenomenal. Fazla and his brother know exactly what they are doing, they are very fair in pricing and for the speed of work completed, it’s just WOW. We will be using them for all of our business ventures.
