Design and drafting that fits your shop
Send a projectRemote design support for cabinet and millwork shops across the US. Send a sketch, measurements or a designer's plans — get back a coordinated set in a few business days, with every open question marked before it reaches the floor.
Unresolved things are marked,
not buried
An appliance model that is not final, a panel joint still open, backing that needs a decision — these cost money once a job is running. On our sheets they carry a colour, so the conversation happens before the cut.
Needs confirmation
A dimension, model or specification still to be agreed. Written on the drawing, in plain language.
Proposed backing
Indicative location for concealed fixing. Size and method still to be resolved with the shop.
Four situations this is built for
The bench is full
Work is booked but design time is not. We take the drawing so the saw keeps running.
Your designer is on another job
The set needs finishing by someone who draws the same way and keeps the index.
You need to quote without a picture
A fast elevation set to price from, before the client has decided everything.
Rework after release
A change came in and the sheets must stay coordinated, not patched.
Four stages, and you always know which one you are in
Align
Scope, standards, inputs and responsibilities agreed before drawing starts.
↗Draw
Plans, elevations and visual studies.
↗Review
One consolidated set of comments, one round at a time.
↗Issue
Agreed revision, issue status, next steps.
↗What a set contains
Thirteen sheets on the sample job, numbered so anyone on the bench can find them. Yours gets the same index.
Plans
- Survey, room and services
- Furniture plan with cabinet numbering
- Ceiling and lighting where it touches the run
Elevations & sections
- Every run drawn straight on, every door and drawer sized
- Backing and blocking marked in red dash
- Open questions on the drawing in orange
Schedules
- Finishes with product codes
- Hardware and appliance references
- Scope and exclusions, in writing
Native files & coordination
- SketchUp, AutoCAD or Mozaik files
- A seat in the thread with designer and client
- Revision rounds after release
What shapes the cost of a set
Fixed per room, agreed before we start. What moves it: how much is custom, how much is unresolved, how many rooms, how fast.
Read the guideQuestions shops ask first
Short answers. If yours is not here, it goes in the form below.
/ 01Open partner, or invisible?+
Either. Some shops want us in the thread with the designer and the client; others want the set to arrive as theirs. Say which at the start and that is how it runs.
/ 02Do you produce cut lists or CNC files?+
No. We do design coordination, not production documentation. The set tells the bench what to build; how it is cut stays with the shop.
/ 03What do you need to start?+
A sketch, a plan or an email with sizes is enough. A questionnaire covers your standards — reveals, box construction, hardware — so the first set already looks like yours.
/ 04How long does a room take?+
A few business days once inputs are in. A rush compresses that and carries a premium, agreed up front.
/ 05What happens when an appliance changes after release?+
It comes back as a revision. Open items are marked in orange on the sheets before release, so most of these are caught before the cut, not after.
/ 06Which software do you work in?+
SketchUp, AutoCAD and Mozaik. Sets go out as PDF; native files on request.
/ 07Do you work with shops outside the US?+
The sets are drawn to US conventions — imperial units, standard sheet sizes. Elsewhere is possible, but that is a conversation first.
