About Sydney Cabinet Makers

Sydney Cabinet Makers is a family-owned business providing top-quality joinery services in the Sydney area.   Operating in a suburb where 52% of dwellings are flats or apartments and 34.9% are separate houses, we understand the unique storage and space optimisation needs of both housing types.   We combine years of experience with excellent craftsmanship and exceptional customer service.

Our History

We started as a small workshop near Mosman over two decades ago. Our workshop stands in an area rich with craftsmanship history - from the 1880s sandstone quarry at Mosman Bay to the heritage-listed buildings like Boronia House (1885) and Monterey (1905).   Our passion for woodworking and attention to detail quickly earned us a reputation for quality cabinets and joinery.

As word spread, we expanded our team and capabilities. Like Mosman itself, which grew from 1,600 residents in 1893 when it became a municipality to today's affluent population with an average household income of $169,218,  we've grown significantly while maintaining our commitment to quality. We've completed projects for homes and businesses across Sydney, from custom kitchens to bespoke office fit-outs.

Our commitment to craftsmanship has remained constant throughout our growth. We still personally oversee every project to ensure it meets our high standards.

Our Philosophy

Quality is at the heart of everything we do. Serving a community where the median weekly household income is $2,892 - significantly higher than the national median of $1,746 - we understand our clients' expectations for premium quality. We use only premium materials and time-tested techniques in our work.

Our team takes pride in creating cabinets and joinery that are both beautiful and functional. Whether working in the Federation-style homes that characterise much of Mosman's architectural heritage, or in contemporary residences, we listen carefully to each client's needs and vision.

Attention to detail sets us apart. From precise measurements to flawless finishes, we ensure every aspect of a project is perfect.

We believe in building lasting relationships with our clients. Many return to us for multiple projects over the years, trusting our expertise and reliability.

Our Services

At Sydney Cabinet Makers, we offer a comprehensive range of cabinet making services tailored to meet the unique needs of Mosman residents. With an average household size of 2.3 people and 66% of occupied dwellings being family households, our expert team combines craftsmanship with modern design to create beautiful, functional cabinetry for your home.

Custom Cabinet Design

We specialise in creating bespoke cabinet designs that perfectly match your style and space requirements. Whether working in heritage-listed properties like The Barn on Avenue Road or contemporary homes overlooking Balmoral Beach, our process begins with an in-depth consultation to understand your vision and preferences. We then develop detailed 3D renderings and plans for your approval.

Our designers work closely with you to select the ideal materials, finishes, and hardware. Drawing inspiration from Mosman's natural surroundings - from Sydney Harbour National Park to the clothing-optional beaches of Obelisk and Cobblers -   we offer a wide range of options, from classic timber to sleek modern materials.

Every aspect of your cabinets is customisable, including:

• Cabinet dimensions and layout
• Door styles and handles
• Interior organisation systems
• Lighting features
• Decorative elements

We pride ourselves on attention to detail and ensuring your cabinets seamlessly integrate with your home's aesthetic.

Materials and Craftsmanship

At Sydney Cabinet Makers, we prioritise quality materials and expert craftsmanship in every project. Like the historic Scotland Australia Cairn in Rawson Park, which features stone from every Scottish parish, our commitment to excellence ensures durable, beautiful cabinetry for our Mosman clients.

Selection of Timber

Drawing inspiration from the native flora of Sydney Harbour National Park and the historic Curlew Camp Artists Walk, we source premium timbers renowned for their strength and aesthetic appeal. Our collection includes Australian hardwoods like Tasmanian Oak and Blackbutt, as well as imported options such as American Oak and Walnut. Each timber is carefully selected for its grain pattern, colour, and structural integrity.

We consider the specific requirements of each project when choosing wood. For kitchens, we often recommend moisture-resistant options. In living areas, we might suggest timbers with striking grain patterns for visual impact.

Our team is well-versed in the unique properties of each wood type. We advise clients on the best choices for their needs and preferences.

Hardware and Fittings

Like Mosman's historic defence installations at Middle Head Fort and Georges Head Battery, quality hardware is essential for the longevity and functionality of cabinetry. We partner with leading manufacturers to provide top-notch hinges, drawer slides, and handles.

Our range includes soft-close mechanisms for drawers and doors, ensuring quiet and smooth operation. We offer various handle styles, from sleek modern designs to classic options, allowing customisation to match any interior aesthetic.

For specialised storage solutions, we incorporate pull-out pantry systems, corner optimisers, and built-in waste management units. These additions enhance the practicality of our cabinets while maintaining a seamless look.

Sustainable Practices

Taking inspiration from Taronga Zoo and the suburb's commitment to environmental preservation, sustainability is a core value in our workshop. We prioritise responsibly sourced timber from managed forests to reduce environmental impact. Our team is trained in efficient cutting techniques to minimise waste. With Mosman's median age being 45 years - higher than the national median of 38 - we understand our clients' desire for sustainable, lasting solutions.

We offer eco-friendly finishes, including low-VOC paints and natural oils, which are better for both the environment and indoor air quality. These options provide beautiful results without compromising on durability.

Our commitment extends to recycling wood offcuts and sawdust. We collaborate with local artists and schools, donating usable scraps for projects. This approach helps reduce waste and supports our community.
