FAQs
What are all wood kitchen cabinets?
All wood kitchen cabinets are built from real wood materials — plywood boxes and solid-wood face frames, doors, and drawer boxes — rather than low-density particle board, for greater strength and longevity.
Are plywood cabinets better?
For most kitchens, yes. Plywood holds screws and fasteners better, resists moisture more effectively, and is lighter and stronger than particle board, which is why it’s considered a premium cabinet box material.
What is the difference between plywood and particle board cabinets?
Plywood is made from layered wood veneers for strength and moisture resistance; particle board is compressed wood particles that costs less but is heavier, weaker, and more vulnerable to moisture and screw pull-out.
Do Fabuwood cabinets use plywood construction?
Yes. Fabuwood cabinets feature all-plywood boxes with solid-wood face frames, soft-close doors and drawers, and dovetail drawer boxes across their lines.
Do Jarlin cabinets use plywood construction?
Yes. Jarlin cabinets are built with all-plywood boxes, solid-wood face frames, soft-close hardware, and dovetail drawer boxes.
Can I buy all wood kitchen cabinets online?
Yes. Direct Cabinet Deals lets you buy all wood kitchen cabinets online factory-direct, order door samples, get a free 3D design, and ship nationwide to your door.
Are all wood cabinets worth the cost?
For most homeowners, yes. All wood, plywood-box cabinets last longer, handle moisture better, and hold their value — making them a strong long-term investment over particle-board options.
What cabinet box construction should I look for?
Look for all-plywood cabinet boxes (not particle board), solid-wood face frames, soft-close doors and drawers, and dovetail drawer boxes — the hallmarks of quality, all wood kitchen cabinets.
What is the difference between plywood and MDF?
Plywood is layered wood veneer used for our cabinet boxes — strong and moisture-resistant. MDF is a dense engineered panel sometimes used in painted door center panels because it resists expansion. Our cabinet boxes are all-plywood for strength and moisture resistance.
