We sell Kitchen Craft cabinets.
Kitchen Craft was founded more than 40 years ago in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and is now sold in hundreds of stores in Canada and the United States. Kitchen Craft manufactures two lines of cabinetry, Integra and Aurora, for the kitchen, bathroom, home office, laundry and other areas throughout the home. In 2002, Kitchen Craft became part of the MasterBrand Cabinets, Inc. family of cabinet manufacturers, offering multiple lines from stock to custom cabinetry.

How to measure a room step-by-step
To begin, draw an outline of the room
Measure and note the ceiling height
Measure and note all wall lengths
Check corner 'squareness' at the floor, base and wall cabinet levels to determine if you will have any issues during installation. To check for corner 'squareness':
Mark a point 3 feet out from the corner of one wall
Mark a point 4 feet out from the corner of the adjacent wall
Measure the distance between the two marked points, if the distance is 5 feet, the corner is square (If your walls are not square, don't worry, a good installer will be able to work around any issues by using shims between the cabinets and the wall)
Measure and note the location of obstacles along each wall, recording their height, width and depth from outside edge to outside edge (Include doors, windows and pipe chases)
Identify and note existing plumbing, electrical and lighting centerlines on all walls including:
Plumbing
Range hook-up
Light switches
Electrical outlets
Lighting fixtures
Phone jacks
Heating/Air vents
Record the height from finished floor for items like windows, outlets, and vents
Record measurements of any free-standing furniture pieces or appliances that may stay in the room
Have an electrician check the electrical service panel conditions to ensure it can handle any change of appliances you may be making in the kitchen
If attic or basement walls will be affected by the renovation, make sure any plumbing or venting changes are verified by a professional
IMPORTANT TIPS
Note window size & placement
Note locations of ventilation and duct-work on your drawing
Measure any items that will stay in the room and relate to your floor plan
Make note of any electrical details, such as switching and outlets that need to stay, or could possibly be moved
If you will be working around existing lighting fixtures, list their dimensions to avoid any obstruction with taller items like pantry cabinets or refrigerators
Once your designer has measured the space, double and triple check the measurements prior to placing your order; every component order is custom and items will be made especially for you
