Overview of Sydney Cabinet Makers


Sydney Cabinet Makers is a family-owned business providing high-quality joinery services in the Northern Beaches area. Serving a region that spans from Manly to Palm Beach and encompasses 254 square kilometres of land, we specialise in custom cabinetry for various residential and commercial projects.


History and Background


Sydney Cabinet Makers was established over two decades ago by a group of skilled craftsmen. Like the Northern Beaches region itself, which transformed from a rural area in the early 20th century to one of Sydney's most sought-after coastal districts, our founders saw a need for bespoke cabinetry solutions in the Northern Beaches region.


We started as a small workshop, focusing on kitchen renovations and built-in wardrobes. As our reputation grew, so did our team and capabilities.


Today, we operate from a modern facility equipped with state-of-the-art machinery. Our client base has expanded to include homeowners, architects, and interior designers across Sydney.


Expertise and Craftsmanship


At Sydney Cabinet Makers, we take pride in our attention to detail and excellent workmanship. Operating in the Northern Beaches area, where approximately 42% of dwellings are separate houses and 45% are apartments or units, our team comprises experienced cabinetmakers, designers, and project managers.


We specialise in creating custom cabinets for kitchens, bathrooms, laundries, and living spaces. With the Northern Beaches' median household income being 37% higher than the NSW average, our expertise extends to commercial fitouts, including office spaces and retail environments.


Using premium materials and innovative designs, we craft functional and stylish cabinetry. Understanding the coastal environment's unique challenges, including the area's average annual rainfall of 1,190mm and high humidity levels, we work closely with clients to understand their needs and preferences, ensuring each project is tailored to their specifications.


Our commitment to quality is evident in every piece we produce, from concept to installation.


Our Service Range


At Sydney Cabinet Makers, we offer a comprehensive range of cabinet services tailored to meet the diverse needs of Northern Beaches residents. In an area where 73% of residents own or are purchasing their homes, our expertise spans from initial design to final installation, ensuring a seamless experience for our clients.


Custom Cabinet Design


We specialise in creating bespoke cabinet designs that perfectly match our clients' visions and spaces. With the region's demographic showing 36% of residents aged 25-49 and a significant proportion working from home, our team works closely with each customer to understand their specific requirements and preferences.


We utilise state-of-the-art 3D modelling software to bring ideas to life, allowing clients to visualise their cabinets before production begins. This process ensures that every detail is captured and refined to perfection.


Our designs incorporate the latest trends in cabinetry while also considering practical aspects such as storage optimisation and ergonomics. We pride ourselves on crafting unique solutions for kitchens, bathrooms, wardrobes, and other living spaces.


Cabinet Making


Our skilled craftsmen employ both traditional woodworking techniques and modern manufacturing processes to produce high-quality cabinets. In the Northern Beaches area where 82% of homes have three or more bedrooms and the average household size is 2.6 people, we use premium materials sourced from reputable suppliers to ensure durability and longevity.


Our workshop is equipped with advanced machinery, enabling us to achieve precise cuts and joins for a flawless finish. Considering the coastal environment's effects on materials, with the area experiencing around 120 days of rainfall annually, we offer a wide range of finishes, including:

  • Natural wood veneers
  • Painted surfaces
  • Laminate options
  • High-gloss finishes


We pay meticulous attention to detail in every aspect of cabinet construction, from selecting the right hardware to applying the final touches. Our quality control process guarantees that each piece meets our exacting standards.


Cabinet Installation Services


Our installation team is composed of experienced professionals who handle the final crucial step with care and precision. Understanding the unique accessibility challenges of the Northern Beaches, where 17 suburbs are located on peninsulas or beside lagoons, we coordinate closely with clients to schedule installations at convenient times, minimising disruption to their daily lives.


Our installers arrive fully equipped and prepared to handle any on-site challenges. We take great care to protect surrounding surfaces and furnishings during the installation process.


We ensure that all cabinets are level, properly aligned, and securely fixed. Our team also performs final adjustments to doors and drawers, ensuring smooth operation and perfect alignment.


Upon completion, we conduct a thorough inspection with the client to verify that all aspects of the installation meet their expectations. We also provide guidance on cabinet care and maintenance to help preserve their beauty and functionality for years to come.


Materials and Construction Techniques


At Sydney Cabinet Makers, we prioritise quality materials and cutting-edge construction techniques to deliver superior cabinetry. With the area's exposure to salt air and humidity levels averaging 65-75% year-round, our skilled craftsmen combine traditional woodworking methods with modern technology to create bespoke pieces that stand the test of time.


Quality Timber Selection


We source premium-grade timber from sustainable suppliers across Australia. Taking into account the Northern Beaches' climate, which can vary significantly from coastal areas averaging 19°C annually to inland areas reaching up to 30°C in summer, our selection includes hardwoods like Tasmanian Oak, Spotted Gum, and Blackbutt, known for their durability and distinctive grain patterns. For more affordable options, we offer high-quality pine and MDF.


Each piece of wood is carefully inspected for defects and moisture content before use. We match grain patterns and colours to ensure a cohesive look in the finished product.


Our timber undergoes proper seasoning and acclimatisation to prevent warping or cracking over time. This attention to detail results in cabinets that maintain their shape and integrity for years to come.


State-of-the-Art Equipment


Our workshop is equipped with the latest woodworking machinery to ensure precision and efficiency. We utilise computer-controlled CNC routers for intricate cuts and joinery, guaranteeing accuracy to within a fraction of a millimetre.


Edge banders apply durable edge treatments, while industrial-grade spray booths ensure flawless finishes. Our dust extraction system maintains a clean work environment and promotes the health and safety of our team.


We regularly update our equipment to stay at the forefront of cabinetmaking technology. This investment allows us to tackle complex projects with confidence and deliver superior results to our Northern Beaches clients.

Design Consultation Process


At Sydney Cabinet Makers, we prioritise understanding our clients' needs and transforming their ideas into reality. Serving a population where 48% of residents hold bachelor's degrees or higher and 38% are professionals, our design consultation process is thorough and client-focused, ensuring we create custom cabinetry that perfectly suits each space.


Initial Consultation and Quotation


We begin with a comprehensive on-site consultation. Working across the Northern Beaches area's diverse topography, from beachfront properties to elevated bushland homes in suburbs like Terrey Hills where properties sit 156 metres above sea level, our expert designers visit your home to assess the space and discuss your vision. We take detailed measurements and note any specific requirements or challenges.


During this visit, we explore your style preferences, functionality needs, and budget constraints. We provide expert advice on materials, finishes, and layout options that best suit your project. This consultation allows us to gather all necessary information to create an accurate quotation.


We aim to provide a detailed quote within 48 hours of the initial consultation. This quote outlines the scope of work, materials, timeline, and costs involved.


Design Customisation


Once the quote is approved, we move to the design customisation phase. Our designers create detailed 2D and 3D renderings of your cabinetry project. These visual representations help you envision the final product and make informed decisions.


We work closely with you to refine the designs, incorporating your feedback and suggestions. This iterative process ensures the final design aligns perfectly with your vision and requirements.


Our team uses advanced CAD software to produce precise technical drawings. These serve as blueprints for our craftsmen during the manufacturing process.
