Stock · Semi-custom · Custom
Stock, semi-custom or fully custom: we fit and finish all three, and we will tell you honestly which one your kitchen, closet or built-in actually needs. The consultation is free either way.
Ready-made lines, fitted by us
Factory-built cabinets in standard sizes and a curated set of finishes, delivered fast and installed with the same care as everything else we do.
Best for: Rentals, flips, garages, laundry rooms and any project on a tight timeline.
Factory-built, tailored to the room
Standard construction with real flexibility: modified depths and heights, a much wider range of door styles, wood species and finishes, and the storage accessories that make a kitchen work.
Best for: Most kitchen and bath remodels, where fit and finish matter but the room is not unusual.
Built in our shop, to your walls
Designed from a measured drawing and built to the exact dimensions of the room, in any species, profile and finish, with furniture details no catalog offers. This is the work the shop was founded on.
Best for: Kitchens, closets and built-ins where the room is unusual, the finish must match existing millwork, or it simply has to be exactly right.
Side by side
Fit, finish range and time are the three things that move. Construction quality is something we control at every tier by choosing the lines we carry and installing them properly.
| Feature | Stock | Semi-Custom | Custom |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sizes | Standard widths; fillers close the gaps | Widths, depths and heights modified | Built to the inch, no fillers |
| Door styles & finishes | A curated set | Dozens of styles, species and finishes | Anything, including a match to existing millwork |
| Construction | Varies by line; plywood options | Plywood construction available | Plywood boxes, hardwood faces, dovetailed drawers |
| Storage accessories | The basics | Factory pull-outs and organizers | Designed around what you own |
| Timeline | Typically 1–3 weeks | Typically 4–8 weeks | Typically 8–14 weeks |
| Budget | Most accessible | The middle of the road | The full investment |
| Installed by | Our crew | Our crew | The people who built it |
Lead times are typical ranges and depend on the line, the season and the scope of the project; we confirm the schedule in writing before anything is ordered.
Mix and match
A custom island with a semi-custom perimeter. Custom cabinetry in the kitchen and stock in the garage and laundry. Semi-custom boxes with custom doors that match the original millwork in an older home. We design the whole house that way when it makes sense, and the consultation is where we work out where the money matters most.
Stock cabinets come in fixed sizes and a limited set of finishes and ship quickly; semi-custom cabinets are factory-built but can be modified in size and offer far more styles and finishes; custom cabinets are built to the exact dimensions of your room in any species, profile and finish. Blair Custom Interiors fits and installs all three.
It depends on the room and what you need it to do, so we look at the space first and then recommend the least expensive tier that will actually get the result you want. Stock is the most accessible, semi-custom sits in the middle and custom is the full investment. We give you a written quote for the tier we recommend and, if it helps, for the one above it.
Yes, and it is often the smartest way to spend. A custom island with a semi-custom perimeter, custom cabinetry in the kitchen with stock in the garage and laundry, or semi-custom boxes with custom doors to match existing millwork are all combinations we build regularly.
Quality varies a great deal between stock lines, which is why we only fit the ones we would put in our own homes, with plywood boxes and soft-close hardware where the line offers them. Installed level, plumb and scribed to the wall, a good stock cabinet looks far better than the same box fitted carelessly.
Stock cabinets are typically in your home within one to three weeks; semi-custom typically takes four to eight weeks from order to delivery; custom cabinetry is built to order and typically takes eight to fourteen weeks. We give you a written schedule before anything is ordered.
Yes. The in-home consultation, the measurements and the written quote are free whichever tier you choose, and there is no obligation. We would rather help you spend well on a stock-cabinet project than sell you a tier you do not need.
