How long do orders take to be manufactured and shipped after placing an order?
Our delivery times range from 5–10 weeks depending on which line the cabinetry is purchased.
Does CabinetsTX deliver and install cabinetry orders?

What are the main types of door styles and how many do you offer?
The three main types of door styles are flat panel, raised panel, and slab, each having multiple variations to choose from. We have over 60 door styles to choose from, plus custom options.
How long do custom cabinets last?
With custom cabinetry, the lifespan can extend up to 50+ years for the structural components, and 25+ years for the finishes and doors/drawer fronts.
What is the difference between overlay and inset options?
With an overlay, the doors and drawer fronts of a cabinet overlap with the face frame, closing to rest against the face frame. With inset, the doors and drawer fronts recess into the face frame, resting flush across the front of the cabinet.
What is the difference between framed and frameless cabinetry?
Framed cabinetry has a hardwood face frame on the front of the cabinet, while frameless has no frame, giving it full access to the interior and a cleaner, more modern look.
What is the difference between traditional, transitional, or contemporary cabinetry?
Traditional cabinetry uses raised panel doors, warm wood finishes, and decorative details like a large crown molding.
Transitional cabinetry is a balanced middle ground, offering cleaner lines than traditional styles while retaining some warmth and detailing, often with shaker-style doors and two-tone finishes.
Contemporary cabinetry is sleek and minimalist, with slab doors, simple lines, high-gloss or bold finishes, and little to no ornamentation.
