Our Process
From design to construction, installation & finish, we take great pride our work. From our family to yours, we appreciate the opportunity to provide your dream home.
Our family-centered mindset is top priority, allowing us to give back to the very same community that has supported us throughout our journey.
We manufacturer our cabinets in Libertyville, IL, USA and hand deliver them.
01
Consultation
Complimentary and in your home or at your business site. Here we discuss your design ideas, ask plenty of questions, and get on the same page about design approach for your project.
02
Design Agreement
We provide you with a design agreement considering the space being designed. The cost of the design agreement is based on square feet of the space being designed.
03
Presentation
We will meet in our showroom where you can view cabinetry options, select door styles, and see preliminary designs by viewing 2D CAD plans on a computer monitor. We will work to combine your wants and needs into one final plan in CAD right in front of you.
04
3D Design & Cost Review
In this meeting you will review the design in 3D and the cost breakdown. You now have seen the design, product, and cost. When you decide that Ryder Homes Cabinetry is the right fit for your project, we sign a contract and receive a deposit, which puts your project on the schedule. If you would like more design time before deciding, we may request a small design retainer for further changes.
05
Craftmanship
Start to finish, every cabinet and door is custom built by our skilled craftsmen. There are an infinite number of materials, colors, and styles that can create a look that is uniquely you. From contemporary to traditional, we have a door to fit your style.
06
Hardware
What's on the outside of your cabinetry is just as important as what’s on the inside. To create a custom cabinet for your life, we install top quality soft close door hinges and drawer slides as well as functional storage like super Susan’s, dividers, pullouts, and waste baskets. With interior lighting becoming a main fixture in kitchens, we create custom fitted L.E.D. lighting directly into your cabinetry right here in our shop.
07
Delivery
All your patience leads you to the final moment. Every cabinet is individually wrapped with moving blankets and receives a final quality check. To ensure safe and on-time delivery, we use our own trucks and drivers. Your wait is over!
08
Install
Now that your cabinets are onsite, install can begin. All cabinets are installed with the highest skilled finish carpenters. Installing cabinets unfinished gives you the opportunity to select the color after cabinets are installed. For most, this is especially helpful when making such a valuable purchase.
09
Finish
When selecting your finish, it needs to stand the test of time. Through hand craftsmanship, high quality finishes combined with HVLP sprayers and hand techniques, we're able to create a finish that you won’t find in local cabinet manufacturers. For the final coat we use a conversion varnish leaving a smooth finish with lasting durability. For a contemporary look we also offer TFL “thermally fused laminate” or HPL “high pressure laminate”, from high gloss acrylics to super matte finish.
