Houston Homeowners Are Rethinking Cabinetry

Houston’s homes, from historic bungalows in The Heights to upscale estates in Tanglewood or sleek urban condos, demand cabinetry that adapts to every style—from Southern traditional to refined modernism. Stock cabinets often leave gaps in layout flexibility, storage optimization, and visual cohesion. That’s why Michael Edwards Custom Cabinetry & Closets offers custom cupboards and kitchen cabinets that deliver both form and function—crafted with Texas pride right here in San Antonio.


Why Go Custom? The Advantages of Michael Edwards Cabinetry

1. Tailored Fit for Houston Kitchens

Whether you face irregular walls, low ceilings, angled corners, or integrated appliances, off-the-shelf cabinets just won’t cut it. Michael Edwards begins each project with an in-depth consultation and site measurements, followed by CAD‑based 3D renderings that bring your concept to life before production begins.

2. Superior Materials & Build Quality

Their custom cabinets are constructed from ¾″ cabinet‑grade birch plywood—not particleboard—with dovetail drawer boxes, soft‑close Blum hardware, and captured nail plates behind finished backs. A baked-on, UV‑cured polyurethane or catalyzed conversion varnish finish ensures long-term resistance to moisture, scratches, and wear.

3. In-House Precision Production

Every piece is milled and finished in Michael Edwards’ San Antonio factory. Using automated flat-line sprayers, Italian paint booths, and data-controlled machining, their craftsmen—supervised by founder Mike Swientek—ensure a consistent, furniture-level finish across each installation.

4. Built for Houston’s Climate

Houston’s heat and humidity call for cabinet construction that resists warping or finish breakdown. These cabinets are designed and finished specifically with longevity in mind, backed by warranties of up to 10 years.


Popular Styles & Spatial Solutions for Houston Kitchens

Two‑Tone Cabinet Schemes

A current trend among Houston homeowners pairs white upper cabinets with darker lower cabinetry in navy, charcoal, or stained walnut for visual contrast and depth.

Inset & Slab Door Styles

For a clean, timeless look, inset doors flush with the frame or slab-front cabinets with concealed handles are increasingly popular, especially in transitional or contemporary kitchens.

Natural Wood Finishes

Light oak and warm walnut stains bring organic texture and cozy elegance—perfect complements to Houston’s diverse architectural palette.

Smart Storage & Organizational Features

Michael Edwards integrates features like pull-out spice racks, vertical pan dividers, hidden trash bins, charging drawer inserts, and lazy Susans—maximizing both accessibility and aesthetics.

Glass‑Front & Display Cabinetry

Showcase fine dishware or designer pieces with illuminated glass-front cabinets, marrying practicality with visual appeal.
