Inside the cabinet

What you get inside every white shaker cabinet.

Most white kitchen cabinets look the same from across the room, and even in a showroom photo. The difference is in the box, the drawers, and the hardware you cannot see until you live with them. Tap any number to see how these white shaker cabinets are built.

  • 1

    5/8" Grade A plywood box

    Plywood holds screws tighter and stands up to moisture better than particleboard.

  • 2

    Fully finished interior

    A wood veneer finish inside, so open doors look as good as closed ones.

  • 3

    Adjustable shelving

    Move shelves up or down to fit tall pots, mixers, or pantry items.

  • 4

    Full overlay door

    A 2 1/2" shaker frame covers the box for a clean, continuous look.

  • 5

    Soft close hinges

    Doors close quietly and gently, with no slamming.

  • 6

    5/8" plywood drawers

    Sturdy drawer boxes with hardwood drawer fronts that hold up to heavy pots and pans.

  • 7

    Full extension glides

    Side mount glides pull the drawer all the way out, so nothing hides in the back.

Compare quotes the smart way

Six questions to ask about any white shaker cabinets.

Two quotes for white shaker cabinets can look identical on paper and be built very differently. Before you compare prices, ask every supplier these six questions. Here is how this line answers each one.

Send Us a Competing Quote
  1. What is the cabinet box made of?

    Particleboard is common in entry level lines. Ours is 5/8" Grade A plywood.

  2. Is the inside finished?

    Some boxes are raw or paper lined inside. Ours have a fully finished veneer interior.

  3. What are the drawers made of?

    Look for plywood or solid wood, not stapled fiberboard. Ours are 5/8" plywood.

  4. Do the drawers fully extend?

    Three quarter glides leave the back of the drawer out of reach. Ours are full extension.

  5. Do doors and drawers close softly?

    Soft close is sometimes an upgrade charge. On these white shaker cabinets it is standard.

  6. How long until it ships?

    Special orders often take 6 to 8 weeks. In-stock white shaker cabinets from us ship in days.

One finish, on purpose

Why a single white is a smart buy.

Offering one finish keeps this line simple to stock, quick to ship, and easy to reorder. For builders and investors, that consistency matters as much as the price. Order ten kitchens or one replacement door months later, and the white will match.

A crisp white shaker kitchen is also one of the safest choices for resale, because buyers rarely see it as a project to redo. For layout and clearance standards, we plan every kitchen using guidance from the National Kitchen and Bath Association.

Flips

A clean, move in ready kitchen that photographs well and appeals to the widest pool of buyers.

Rentals

Order the same cabinet for every unit, so a damaged door is a quick, exact match.

Spec homes

One finish across kitchens, baths, and laundry rooms simplifies every bid.

Homeowners

A timeless kitchen built on plywood, at a price that leaves room for nicer counters. Materials meet CARB Phase 2.

Compare our whites

Every white we carry, side by side.

The shaker family

How white shaker compares.

All four of our shaker collections share the same basic door. Choose this one for a single bright white on a plywood box, or explore the others for more colors, a slimmer frame, or wood grain.

Doing more than the kitchen? Aveley also comes as bathroom vanities and laundry room cabinets. See every kitchen cabinet option, or compare all collections.

Are white shaker cabinets still popular?

Yes. White shaker cabinets have been one of the most requested kitchen styles for well over a decade, and they remain a safe choice for resale. Color trends come and go in islands and accents, but a white shaker perimeter rarely looks dated.

Why does a plywood box matter?

Plywood is made from layers of wood veneer glued in alternating directions, which makes it strong, stable, and better at holding screws. It also handles moisture better than particleboard, which matters under a sink or near a dishwasher.

What does full overlay mean?

On a full overlay cabinet, the doors and drawer fronts cover nearly the entire front of the cabinet box, with only a small gap between them. It gives a clean, built in look compared to older styles where more of the frame shows.

Which white is right for me?

Aveley is a bright, clean white that works with cool and warm palettes. If you want something softer for an older home, look at Pure Ivory or Pearl White. If you want white plus more color options for an island, our shaker collection has a matching White and seven other finishes.

What is the Aveley finish?

Aveley is the name of the bright white painted finish on these white shaker cabinets. It is a clean, true white without strong yellow or blue undertones, so it works with most counters, floors, and paint colors.

Can I use these cabinets in bathrooms and laundry rooms?

Yes. The same finish and construction come in vanity, linen, and utility cabinets, so you can carry one white through the entire house. The plywood box is a smart choice in damp rooms like baths and laundry.

Do white cabinets get dirty easily?

White shows smudges sooner than wood, but a factory finish wipes clean with warm water and a soft cloth. Hardware on every door and drawer keeps fingers off the finish, and a darker island hides the most traffic.

Do you sell white shaker cabinets to builders in volume?

Yes. One consistent finish makes this line ideal for spec homes, rentals, and multifamily projects. Our trade accounts make repeat orders simple.

How fast do white shaker cabinets ship?

In-stock cabinets ship in a matter of days, compared to the 6 to 8 weeks big box special orders often take. We confirm your ship date with every quote.
