Custom Cabinetry in the Catawba Valley
Hickory Custom Cabinets connects homeowners and businesses with skilled cabinet makers serving the Catawba Valley region. Custom cabinets are one of the highest-value improvements you can make to any property — they transform kitchens, bathrooms, and living spaces while adding lasting value.
Hickory, North Carolina has a deep heritage in woodworking and furniture manufacturing. For over a century, this region has been home to some of the finest craftsmen in the country — names like Broyhill, Bernhardt, Century, and Kincaid all trace their roots to the Catawba Valley. That tradition of quality woodworking continues today in the custom cabinet shops throughout the area.
We work with kitchens of all sizes — from compact galley kitchens in 1950s ranches to expansive open-concept kitchens in new Lake Hickory construction. Our custom bathroom vanities solve the problem that big-box cabinets create: if your bathroom needs a 27-inch vanity, a 24-inch one leaves gaps and a 30-inch one doesn't fit. Custom means it fits exactly.
